Nick Holzherr is originally from the Switzerland, but moved to UK when he was 7 years old, to the countryside. He had no real touch to computers until he was 18, when he attended university and everything picked up for him, tech wise. Eventually, he got into building businesses, and of those, he founded a coffee company, HR software company, and whisk.com, which was sold to Samsung in 2019. Outside of tech, he is the father to two young children. He enjoys skiing and snowboarding, and jokingly, he admits that running around ensuring his agents are prompted gets in the way of his family and hobby life. Through his entrepreneurial adventures, Nick spent large sums of money on legal contracts, ensuring that the i's were dotted and the t's were crossed. While he still feels that lawyers are very important and needed for certain scenarios, Nick wanted to create a way to level the playing field for small businesses, in the legal arena. This is the creation story of GitLaw. Linkshttps://git.law/https://nickholzherr.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickholzherr/ Current Sponsors: Tiger Data Protected Harbor Render Fitnexa Perplexity Entelligence Checkout our Stacklist! https://stacks.codestory.co/ Hosted by Noah Labhart | Technical Founder & Startup Mentor.

Today, we have a special return episode from our friends at Backbox, who we heard the creation story of the company back in Season 8. In this episode, we talk with Rekha Shenoy, CEO of Backbox. Since Rekha took the helm as CEO in May 2024, the company has expanded beyond traditional security automation to launch its major BackBox 8.0 platform, unifying cloud and on-prem infrastructure visibility. They've also integrated human-in-the-loop, advisor-focused AI capabilities - and are back to let us know some even more "big things" happening with platform, around agentic . Questions: Tell me about yourself—your path into tech and what shapes how you lead (background, influences, hobbies, family).Tell me about BackBox. What does the company do, and what drew you in to take the CEO seat in 2024?How has the product matured? How do you build your roadmap?Zoom out — what are you most proud of in shaping BackBox?What does the future look like for your product and team?BackBox describes AI as a "trusted advisor, not an autonomous agent" — four principles: protecting infrastructure, repeatable/verifiable results, supporting (not replacing) engineers, and transparency about how AI reaches conclusions. Where did that philosophy come from, and why hold that line while competitors race toward full autonomy?What does "responsible AI" actually look like in the product — not as a value statement, but as a design constraint that shaped the engineering decision?Tell us about your recent launch and what it enables a network team to do that they couldn't before?How does the launch extend or test that responsible-AI philosophy?At what point does "AI as advisor" start to feel like a limitation rather than a safeguard?Linkshttps://backbox.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/rekha-shenoy-950b23/https://www.codestory.co/episodes/s8-bonus-bypassing-brittle-custom-scripts-implementing-automated-multi-tenant-configuration-backups-and-vulnerability-patching-at-scale-with-andrew-kahl-of-backbox/ Current Sponsors: Tiger Data Protected Harbor Render Fitnexa Perplexity Entelligence Checkout our Stacklist! https://stacks.codestory.co/ Hosted by Noah Labhart | Technical Founder & Startup Mentor.

Connor Heggie grew up in Southern California, digging into technical things early on his life. He played with legos, was influence by Iron Man, and painted pictures on the back of schematics his Dad brought him from Boeing. He went to school at Rice in Texas, feeling a sense of agency and confidence from the program he was in. Eventually, he went to work for startups across computer vision, self driving cars, and AI. Outside of tech, he has a large black Labrador named Captain. He enjoys hiking, being outside, and playing fetch with Captain until he drops in exhaustion. Post ChatGPT, Connor was working on a side project, creating listicles around products. As he built it, he fell in love with the space of mining information from unstructured data. Once he met up with his co-founder, they started to recognize they could build multi-agent systems that could re-think how Go-To-Market teams operate. This is the creation story of Unify. Linkshttps://www.unifygtm.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/connor-heggie/ Current Sponsors: Tiger Data Protected Harbor Render Fitnexa Perplexity Entelligence Checkout our Stacklist! https://stacks.codestory.co/ Hosted by Noah Labhart | Technical Founder & Startup Mentor.

Christian Ondaatje is originally from Los Angelas, CA. He got into GPUs as an underclassmen in college, of course through gaming and VR. He ended up starting an eGPU company in his CS program @ Harvard, though it was shut down through some cease and desist from Apple. Though he learned some hard startup lessons, his love for GPUs was only fueled more. Outside of tech, he does a lot of SIM racing. In fact, he has built his own Linus VR racing simulator rig over a couple of years He finds that the formal, online competition is very fun to participate in. As I mentioned, Christian was way into GPUs throughout many different experiences in his life. He and his team recognized that while demand door AI inference and compute was at an all-time high, setting up bare-metal GPU infra was still complex and slow... so they set out to change it. This is the creation story of Aranya.Linkshttps://aranya.tech/https://www.linkedin.com/in/christianondaatje/ Current Sponsors: Tiger Data Protected Harbor Render Fitnexa Perplexity Entelligence Checkout our Stacklist! https://stacks.codestory.co/ Hosted by Noah Labhart | Technical Founder & Startup Mentor.

In a neighboring county, 18 year old Devin Clark vanished that same weekend. At first, there seemed to be no connection between them.

What if the patterns that helped you succeed are also holding you back at work? In this episode, I sit down with MIT professor Dr. Deborah Ancona to talk about how the “family ghosts” you carry from childhood can shape the way you handle authority, conflict, responsibility, perfectionism, and asking for help. We dive into how recognizing these patterns helps you understand your triggers, change behaviors that keep you stuck, and lead with greater intention.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) reads his Bits About Money essay on the business of wallets, with new commentary, prompted by paying his barber $100 over Venmo and wondering why PayPal so badly wants to be in the middle of that transaction. He walks through the economics that make wallets irresistible to anyone already moving money for users: funds enter the ecosystem at card interchange rates, move inside it at the cost of a database transaction, and get topped up over ACH pulls that cost about five cents at scale. From there he covers co-branded debit and credit cards, the loss-sharing language in PayPal's 10-K, Apple's 15 basis points on Apple Pay, and why a checkout page crowded with payment buttons starts to look like advertising inventory.–Full transcript available here: https://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/everyone-wants-to-be-your-wallet/–Presenting Sponsors: Mercury & GranolaComplex Systems is presented by Mercury—radically better banking for founders.

Cognitive neuroscientist Dr. Caroline Leaf and her daughter Dominique Leaf sit down to talk about something neither has discussed this openly before: their own eating disorders, and how one was handed to the other.Caroline counted calories at university, down to 500 a day, until her sister picked up an apple and asked whether she was working out the number in her head. Dominique was diagnosed with anorexia at 13, spent over a year in therapy, and says plainly that she blamed her mother and grandmother for years. What follows is how that pattern moves through a family, what broke it in both cases, and the two exercises Dominique's therapist gave her that still work when the old thinking comes back.They also get into whether we should ever comment on another person's body, what GLP-1s have done to the culture around thinness, and why "she was trying to protect me" changed how Dominique understood her grandmother.Content Note: This episode discusses eating disorders and related topics. Listener discretion is advised.

She is a clinical and research neuroscientist, and what she offers here is the mind side: spotting the trigger, questioning the thinking underneath it, and building a new pattern over 63 days with the Neurocycle. If you are struggling, please also speak to a qualified eating disorder professional.Special guest: Dominique Leaf What you'll learn:• Why the calorie number takes up so much mental space that nothing else fits• The difference between an eating disorder and disordered eating• How a pattern passes through a family, and what epigenetics actually means• The eulogy exercise, and what it tells you about what you actually value• Why "I am struggling with anorexia" beats "I am anorexic"• When to say something about someone's body, and how to do it with kindness• Where GLP-1s help, and where the real risk sits  Resources: Dr. Leaf's Website: https://drleaf.com Neurocycle Certification (opens September): https://drleaf.com 1:1 Coaching with Dr. Leaf: https://drleaf.com/coaching-1-1 Neurocycle App: https://drleaf.com/neurocycle-app Momentous  Try Momentous Signature Spec Creatine — pharmaceutical-grade, third-party tested, 10x fewer impurities.

Marcos Fenício sofreu um acidente de moto, aos 17 anos, que mudou sua vida. “Tive que amputar minha perna, e isso me fez buscar um sentido para a vida. Eu não vim ao mundo de férias. Tenho que ser uma ferramenta de mudança", disse Fenício, em entrevista a Mariana Amaro, apresentadora do podcast Do Zero ao Topo. Marcos parou de comer carne e, e para complementar a alimentação, conheceu a granola. “Naquele tempo, era uma alimentação do pessoal macrobiótico. Não eram tão saborosas como hoje”, afirma. “Minha mãe olhou aquilo ali e falou, ‘peraí'. Ela abaianou o negócio”.A mãe de Marcos, dona Sônia, virou marca: Tia Sônia. E sua receita caseira ganhou o mundo. Hoje, a empresa produz cerca de 300 toneladas de granola por mês. Seus 80 produtos estão em supermercados do Brasil inteiro, numa loja-conceito da marca em São Paulo e nos Estados Unidos.Com dinheiro próprio - “um empréstimo de R$ 40 que está rendendo até hoje”, diz Fenício -, gestão familiar, e uma ajuda involuntária da novela Malhação, Tia Sônia tem 30 anos de existência. É líder do mercado na região Nordeste e a segunda maior do Brasil._________________________INFOMORNING | A newsletter com tudo o que você precisa para começar o diaReceba informações, análises e recomendações que valem dinheiro diretamente no seu e-mail: https://www.infomoney.com.br/newsletters/

Max goes under the hood to explain how AI detection actually works. They also discuss the institutions that quietly assumed writing was expensive: credit bureaus that negotiated the right to shred templated dispute letters, grant committees where reading the application is five percent of the work, and unemployment offices staffed for a world where claims cannot plausibly rise two hundredfold. –Full transcript available here: https://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/how-ai-detection-actually-works-with-pangrams-max-spero/ –Presenting Sponsors: Mercury & GranolaComplex Systems is presented by Mercury—radically better banking for founders.

In this episode the guys break down 5 health foods you should probably avoid — roasted nuts and why they're one of the only whole natural foods that's hyper palatable and calorie dense enough to blow your deficit without realizing it, smoothies and juices and how blending dramatically raises glycemic index and strips the fiber that makes whole fruit satisfying, granola and how it went from an endurance athlete energy food to a widely misunderstood sugar bomb, raw vegetables and why cooking actually makes nutrients more bioavailable not less, and raw fish and the parasite data that most frequent sushi eaters aren't aware of. They also get into how celebrity Ozempic face is becoming impossible to hide, the full story of Sal accidentally buying women's Michael Kors sneakers on Amazon and wearing them to church, Arlo the dog getting Justin back in the dark during an outdoor bathroom break, Troscriptions Tro Mune and the cordycepin research on viral replication and REM sleep, the coaches responding to backlash from last episode's fat and fit post, and Paul Chek peeing in his yard mid-sentence the first time they met him.

In this episode of Business Brain, we get practical about AI note-taking and why your meeting transcripts are pure gold. You’ll hear why local, on-device tools like Granola and WhisperFlow are winning us over, how speaker recognition and instant summaries save you real time, and why you don’t want to be the person stuck taking notes when you should be your best present self in the conversation. We walk through feeding a trimmed transcript into an LLM to spec out a feature, generate action items, and even kick off a build, turning a casual call into a documented plan. Then we hand you the tip most Zoom users are sitting on and don’t realize it: you can query your own meeting notes with a chat interface. Ask how many downloads that show mentioned, or whether demographics came up, and get an answer grounded in your actual conversation. That’s context-aware AI working for you, and it’s part of the charmed life. Turn transcription on by default, file those summaries away, and start treating your recordings as a searchable knowledge base. Create and analyze your transcripts, the data is yours. 00:00:00 Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs' Podcast #781 for Casual FridAI, August 21st, 2026 August 21st: Internet Self-Care Day 00:01:52 Always assume you're being recorded on calls 00:02:50 Local AI Notetaking Agents Granola WisprFlow Notetaker 00:08:50 SPONSOR: SomniPods 3 sleep earbuds from Fitnexa: Flat enough to sleep on, and the app is the real prize: https://go.fitnexa.com/brain automatically applies $10 off (or use code BRAIN). 00:10:44 SPONSOR: Keeper Security's Password Manager.

Patrick McKenzie (@patio11) is joined by Alex Elliott (@alexpotato), who has spent his career in SRE and operations roles at financial firms ranging from ten-person fintechs to global investment banks, to discuss what the back office actually does all day. They cover the life cycle of a trade: execution, clearing, settlement, and the constant reconciliation between counterparties who don't quite agree on what happened. Alex recounts the Friday afternoon when twenty million shares went out to the street instead of five, and Patrick explains what happens between 4:15 and 4:30 when one bank owes another $36 million and the person who owns that process is on vacation.–Full transcript available here: https://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/two-banks-cant-agree-on-fourth-grade-math/ –Presenting Sponsors: Mercury, MongoDB & GranolaComplex Systems is presented by Mercury—radically better banking for founders.

#392: Julie Mountain and Dana Noorily are the co-founders of The Granola Bar, longtime friends, mothers, and entrepreneurs who turned a desire for something more into a thriving brand. After initially believing that becoming stay-at-home moms was the life they wanted, they each began to realize they were craving a greater sense of purpose, creativity, and identity outside of motherhood. What started as a shared idea eventually became The Granola Bar, a beloved all-day dining concept that has grown to multiple locations. Their story is one of friendship, reinvention, entrepreneurship, and giving yourself permission to change your mind about what a fulfilling life looks like.What you'll learn:How to balance decision making between instincts and logicThe difference between resume vs. eulogy virtues and which you should consider focusing onReality of starting and building a new business and what every aspiring business owner should knowRelevance of partner selection and how they play a role in the kind of life you are able to live, especially in their level of support in your own individual dreams and goalsWhy most women idealize being a "stay at home mom" and the reality of how it may not truly fulfill youBILT Credit Card Info (Pay Rent and Earn Points):https://bilt.page/r/HQ06-ZV7OReceive weekly personal insights from Emily's email newsletter and subscribe hereWatch Full Episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whatfulfillsyou/videosENJOY 10% OFF THE WHAT FULFILLS YOU?

In Kansas City, Missouri, five people were murdered in a quiet suburban cul-de-sac during a terrifying afternoon of violence. But the man responsible had a history stretching back nearly two decades, including another murder case that once ended in acquittal.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) is joined by Manish Goregaokar, a senior software engineer and member of the Rust security response team, to discuss what LLMs do to the cost side of running a sophisticated con. They walk through a scam built for programmers: a plausible company, a few rounds of interviews, and an NDA signed via "sign in with email" that quietly hands an attacker the identity account everything else resets against. A version of it hit at least five people in the Rust community within days of Manish publishing on the subject, and Patrick describes being targeted himself by someone posing as a Bloomberg reporter who wanted him on a Zoom call with a codec problem. They also cover money mules and the three stages of laundering, the $25 million Hong Kong transfer authorized on a fully deepfaked video call, and why the only durable individual defense is refusing to trust any communication you did not initiate.–Full transcript available here: https://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/what-llms-do-to-the-economics-of-scams-with-manish-goregaokar/ –Presenting Sponsors: Mercury, MongoDB & GranolaComplex Systems is presented by Mercury—radically better banking for founders.

Danny McMillan returns after his longest break in almost ten years, with Seller Sessions approaching its tenth anniversary and roughly 1,300 episodes. This is the pilot of a new monthly roundtable with Sim and Matt (Dorian returns next month), moving away from the conversion show format towards raw conversation. You'll hear how Sim's team runs product development end to end with AI: keyword-scored idea validation, brand director sign-off, Claude-generated product concepts rendered through Codex, and a launch pipeline already booked out to 2027. Matt shares how Productpinion prioritises features from customer feedback, and why prioritisation is the most undervalued skill in the AI era. The back half tackles the big theme: cognitive load. Danny breaks down verification fatigue, context switching and AI maxing, and why the scarce resource is no longer time but attention and decision quality. Key Topics AI-driven product development - from keyword scoring to Claude SVG concepts and Codex-generated product renders Team structure at scale - how ideas route through brand directors to sourcing across UK and Philippines teams Hiring in the AI era - why refusing to use AI is now a dealbreaker, and why gutting teams for AI is commercial suicide Free local AI tools - Fluid Voice (Whisper Flow alternative) and Meetily (Granola alternative) Cognitive load and verification fatigue - the hidden tax of moving from doer to overseer Timestamps 00:00 - Danny returns: ten years of Seller Sessions, new pilot format 01:50 - Sim's update: ditching ClickUp for a bespoke operating system 03:55 - Matt's update: closing the research loop in Productpinion, Florence CRO brain, MCP 05:39 - Sim's product pipeline: AI keyword scoring, brand director approval, deep research 07:07 - AI product development: Claude concepts, Codex renders, 3-in-1 product mashups 09:07 - Packaging designed for the main image, and how far you can push it 10:46 - Team workflow: brand directors owning P&L, sourcing handoffs 14:21 - Danny on gutting teams for AI: who maintains the machines? 15:56 - The hiring line: refuse to use AI, you haven't got a job 17:48 - Claude across every department: projects, Claude Code vs Cowork 20:10 - Free local tools: Fluid Voice for dictation, Meetily for meeting notes 21:57 - Marketplace arbitrage: moving proven products between Amazon marketplaces 23:21 - Matt on signal to noise: wasting tokens instead of wasting time 24:57 - Time blocking and prioritising features by customer impact 26:54 - Danny's segment: cognitive load, oversight duty and verification fatigue 31:46 - Asking the right question: the Claude Science deep-dive example 36:41 - AI maxing, context switching and high-stakes decision quality 42:07 - Claude telling you to go to sleep 45:16 - Danny's framework: reject the first plan, decision sprints, deliberate decompression 50:47 - Where to reach Sim and Matt Key Takeaways AI has made product development fun again - unique product concepts generated with Claude and Codex, feeding a pipeline mapped to 2027. Augment, don't replace - if someone was worth hiring, AI should multiply their output, not justify cutting them. Prioritisation is the undervalued AI skill - just because you can do everything doesn't mean you should. Verification fatigue is real - build in decision sprints and deliberate decompression, and reject Claude's first plan on sight. The scarce resource is attention, not time - your night schedule and recovery feed the next day's output. Notable Quotes "AI is enabling the boring to get released and the fun stuff to happen." - Sim "Instead of people wasting time, now they're just wasting tokens." - Matt "Prompts don't matter, but asking the right question unlocks everything." - Danny McMillan "AI doesn't just speed you up. It puts you on permanent oversight duty, and the cost of that duty is your attention and your judgment, not time." - Danny McMillan Resources Mentioned Fluid Voice - free, open source local dictation with on-device models; a Whisper Flow alternative Meetily - free, open source meeting summariser that runs privately on your machine; a Granola alternative Claude / Claude Code - the AI platform used across both Danny's and Sim's teams Codex - used alongside Claude to generate product concept images Productpinion - Matt's shopper testing platform, now with MCP support and draft polls Connect Sim - on LinkedIn (genuine reach-outs answered) Matt - on LinkedIn or via productpinion.com Seller Sessions is the leading podcast for advanced Amazon sellers, hosted by Danny McMillan. Dorian returns next month.

We live in a world that worships talent, a world that cheers natural athletes, exalts child prodigies, and venerates virtuosos. But admiring people who are blessed with innate abilities can lead us to underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. As Adam Grant explains in his new book, “Hidden Potential,” growth is not about the genius you possess — it's about the character you develop. Adam joins us today to talk about developing the character skills, motivational tools, and learning systems that can help ordinary people achieve extraordinary things. This episode first aired in October 2023.

This Week In Startups is made possible by: Vanta https://www.vanta.com/twist Agree https://agree.com Odoo https://Odoo.com/twist Today's show: *Airtable just sold for $2.25 billion, an 81% drop from its peak of $11.7 billion. On this week's TWiST VC Roundtable, Aditya Agarwal (South Park Commons), Niko Bonatsos (Verdict Capital), and Rick Heitzmann (FirstMark Capital) break down why the venture world sees this as a good outcome, not a financial disaster. By declining the deal, would Airtable's team have just been delaying the inevitable? Is the fact that they reached $400M+ ARR on its own a reason to celebrate? Find out why our investor panel prefers unwinding a stuck situation rather than chasing a growth rate that's no longer sustainable. PLUS Robinhood's booming prediction market business, the secondary market flap over Anduril shares, why so many VCs shy away from "vice" categories, and a glimpse at how insiders are talking about the Apple-OpenAI lawsuit.
