In this episode of In Depth, Brett sits down with Paul Copplestone, co-founder and CEO of Supabase, the open-source Postgres platform now serving more than seven million developers. Before Supabase, Paul launched a Thumbtack-style marketplace in Southeast Asia and co-founded an office-management startup called Nimbus, experiences that taught him to separate fundraising from building and to find product-market fit before blitzscaling. He breaks down how a single tagline change for Supabase unlocked product-market fit, why he runs a fully distributed async team with near-zero attrition, and how he turned PLG signals into a product-led sales motion comped only on incremental uplift. In today's episode, we discuss: How changing one tagline helped Supabase go to #1 in Hacker News - an early sign of product market fit Why Paul ran Supabase like it had only $100K in the bank despite raising real money How Supabase rode three distinct AI waves, from pgvector to Bolt and Lovable, to Claude Code Why Supabase built a sales team comped only on the incremental uplift over a control group What the Toyota production system's "kaizen" taught Paul about unblocking a scaling team References: Ant Wilson: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ant-wilson-46179937 Bolt: https://bolt.new/ Claude Code: https://www.anthropic.com/claude-code Codex: https://openai.com/codex/ Entrepreneurs First: https://www.joinef.com/ Firebase: https://firebase.google.com/ Lovable: https://lovable.dev/ MongoDB: https://www.mongodb.com/ Next.js: https://nextjs.org/ PostgreSQL: https://www.postgresql.org/ Supabase: https://supabase.com/ Thumbtack: https://www.thumbtack.com/ Y Combinator: https://www.ycombinator.com/ Where to find Paul: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulcopplestone Twitter/X: https://x.com/kiwicopple Where to find Brett: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brett-berson-9986094/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/brettberson Where to find First Round Capital: Website: https://firstround.com/ First Round Review: https://review.firstround.com/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/firstround YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@FirstRoundCapital This podcast on all platforms: https://review.firstround.com/podcast Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction 01:32 Why Paul's earlier startups were never destined to be huge 07:14 Unlearning the "tall poppy" mindset and going all-in on async 09:54 Reverse-engineering why Supabase was an outstanding idea 12:04 The accidental Hacker News launch and tagline lesson 13:58 Where the early roadmap came from: demand vs. technical taste 17:28 Skill vs. luck, and operating like you have $100K in the bank 21:42 What actually makes a great developer experience 23:10 Solving the "graduation problem" Firebase never could 24:58 The role of open source in Supabase's success 26:10 The three distinct AI tailwinds: From pgvector to Claude Code 35:24 Supabase's egoless, hyper-competitive open-source culture 42:58 A tactical playbook for raising capital 48:37 Product-led sales comped on incremental uplift only 59:27 The production philosophy behind Supabase's operations

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross breaks down why founders often over-focus on perfecting the product while underinvesting in the most important part of business: getting customers to buy. He shares 20 practical customer acquisition tactics covering owned channels, outreach, community building, audience engagement, strategic partnerships, personal branding, and frictionless buying experiences. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. Shift Your Mindset Around Sales - Stop treating every “no” as personal rejection and start seeing it as progress toward a “yes.” - Customer acquisition requires courage, repetition, and strategic thinking—not a massive budget. - Founders need to understand customer nuance, buying behavior, and how to create urgency around their offer. 2. Own Your Audience with Email - Build and maintain an email list so you can communicate directly with prospects and customers. - Make every email valuable enough to inspire, educate, entertain, or give subscribers a competitive edge. - Avoid using email only for product updates or blog announcements; turn it into a trusted resource. 3. Build a High-Value Resource Hub - Create a website section filled with useful tools, guides, quizzes, calculators, and interactive content. - Use gated resources and community features to capture leads and build deeper audience engagement. - Watch for social referral traffic as a signal that your content is valuable enough to share. 4. Create Communities Around Your Market - Build private Slack, Discord, Facebook, or Reddit communities where your ideal customers can gather. - Use these spaces to collect feedback, test ideas, host sessions, and create word-of-mouth momentum. - Stay close to your most engaged community members—they may become your strongest customers. 5. Master Personalized Outreach - Cold email still works when it is researched, relevant, and written for one specific person. - Use LinkedIn, company updates, investor reports, and business context to make outreach feel human. - Ask for feedback or a short conversation instead of immediately pushing for a demo or sale. 6. Leverage Your Existing Network - Reach out to past colleagues, classmates, and professional connections who may now be in relevant roles. - Ask for specific warm introductions and make it easy by writing the intro message for them. - Schedule no-pitch coffee chats to build awareness, gather market research, and create future evangelists. 7. Show Up Where Your Audience Already Spends Time - Participate in Reddit, Medium, Hacker News, Quora, Facebook groups, Slack communities, and X with value-first engagement. - Study the culture of each platform before posting so your contributions fit naturally. - Use podcasts, influencers, guest posts, webinars, and co-marketing to access already-established audiences. 8. Use Strategic Partnerships to Generate Leads - Build referral partnerships with complementary businesses that already serve your ideal customers. - Offer commissions, kickbacks, or revenue share to incentivize partners to send qualified leads. - Create co-branded content or guest content to borrow trust and reach from established audiences. —

A guy in Syracuse spent a month walking up to thirty-five strangers at his gym to fight loneliness. His experiment blew up on Hacker News. While reading it I thought about my son, who I sent off to college with a BJJ academy already picked out, and how he thrived where so many introverted young men isolate. This episode is about the difference between those two paths, and what it tells us about why so many men feel alone today.We break down the loneliness epidemic, why standard advice fails, and the real criteria for community-building activities that actually work. The dojo has always been more than a gym.

“I'm coming around to the view that running human-written code – without it being AI-audited – is going to be considered the reckless thing.”In this episode, Martin Alderson – cofounder of Catchmetrics, engineering leader with two decades shipping enterprise software, and author of a Top 100 Hacker News blog on the intersection of software engineering and economics – cuts through the AI noise with the rare combination of someone who actually builds with agents every day and can read what that does to markets. The thesis that runs through the whole conversation: most companies think their AI problem is a tooling decision. It's not. It's a mindset problem, and the wrong one is quietly existential.What You'll Discover:[01:29] The $285 Billion Markdown File→ Why Wall Street wiped out a quarter-trillion in SaaS value over 13 markdown files – and the three distinct ways every SaaS company is now exposed.[05:38] The Figma Trap→ How SaaS companies ended up paying their single biggest competitor every time a customer uses their product – and how many others are in the same corner.[12:33] The 180 Nobody Saw Coming→ Why the “AI writes insecure code” fear is flipping on its head – and the case that human-written code without an AI audit is about to be the reckless choice.[15:55] Why Non-Technical People Out-Build Engineers→ The reason marketers and PMs are shipping products in a weekend – and the human psychology that lets them iterate without the guilt that kills good ideas.[23:45] Why a Copilot License Can Kill Your Company→ The bifurcation of intelligence: how a “safe” enterprise tool convinces leaders AI is mediocre, right as they're about to be out-executed.[28:33] Five People vs. a Thousand-Person Company→ Are small teams with agents winning a window that closes when the frontier labs steamroll them – or is this the new permanent state?[33:14] The One Question Every CEO Needs to Answer→ The deceptively simple question Martin puts to leaders – and why most boards can't even answer it.[35:50] The Oligopoly Scenario→ Why open-weights models are quietly closing up, and the future Martin is genuinely worried about: three or four giants extracting rent with little incentive to innovate.Key Takeaways:The barrier to building complex software has collapsed – but the threat to incumbents isn't customers rebuilding a CRM, it's a five-person team out-executing them on cost and speed.Don't measure AI adoption by Copilot licenses issued or people trained. Ask how many tokens your organization is actually consuming – and whether you can even answer that at a board level.The real strategic question isn't “how do we add AI to what we do?” It's “if we reimagined the whole business with ten great people and agents, what would it look like – and what's blocking us from getting there?”About Martin Alderson:Martin Alderson is cofounder of Catchmetrics and the writer behind martinalderson.com, a Top 100 Hacker News blog covering the AI transformation through the dual lens of software engineering and economics – read and recommended by people including OpenAI co-founder Andrej Karpathy. He's spent two decades shipping enterprise software and writes some of the sharpest analysis anywhere on where AI, building, and markets actually collide.

Alex Nahas is 28 years old and has already initiated a W3C web standard. Working as a backend engineer at Amazon, he ran into a problem most enterprises face: MCP requires OAuth, but most enterprise infrastructure runs on SAML. His solution was elegant: run the MCP server in client-side JavaScript, letting AI agents use the browser's existing authentication context rather than rebuilding auth from scratch. What started as an internal tool became an open source project, then a viral Hacker News post published while under anesthesia, and ultimately an invitation from Google and Microsoft to help shape WebMCP as an official web standard. In this episode, Alex and Tobi explore what WebMCP actually is, why the browser is the most underestimated sandbox in AI development, and what the agentic web might look like two years from now. Topics covered: What MCP actually is and why it's just an RPC framework at its core Why OAuth is a dealbreaker for most enterprise infrastructure How WebMCP lets AI agents operate within existing browser authentication The Hacker News post that started it all, and why Alex doesn't remember posting it How Chrome is natively building WebMCP support The chicken-and-egg problem of standard adoption Real-time bidding for agents and what it means for digital advertising Why agents don't need their own identity Where the agentic web is headed in the next two years

Hamza Tahir, co-founder of ZenML, joins the show to cut through the hype around long-running agents — arguing that at the end of the day, an agent is just a while loop that talks to a model, calls a tool, and writes to a file system. He covers the architecture of agent harnesses (inner and outer), what durable execution actually guarantees (and what it doesn't), and why the ML pipeline paradigm is a cleaner mental model than transactions for most agent workloads.Hamza also announces Kitaru — ZenML's new open-source execution runtime for async Python agents — built on five years of running ML workloads in enterprise environments.What we get into:Agents are while loops: The surprising simplicity under all the tooling: a brain (LLM), hands (tool calls), and a file system, stacked recursivelyInner harness vs outer harness: Why Pydantic AI owns the inner loop while production deployment needs a separate runtime layerWhat "long-running" actually means: Why the infrastructure we need to build is about extrapolating the future, not defining a time window todayDurable execution demystified: What checkpointing actually guarantees (infra failures, pod death, network drops) vs. what it never will (external state, bad LLM outputs, Snowflake rollbacks)ML pipelines vs transactions: Why bursty containers in Kubernetes map more naturally to agent workloads than microsecond-latency queue workers — and why Hamza argues against the complexity taxAnthropic opening the harness: Why letting other models run Claude Cowork is a "boss move," and what it means for the one-harness vs one-model debateHuman-in-the-loop, done right: The pod-kill-and-resume pattern, and why warm pools matter less when your agent runs for daysKitaru: ZenML's new open source durable execution runtime: zero-config local, Kubernetes/SageMaker/Vertex in production, built on Pydantic AI integrationArguing with Claude about Temporal: Hamza's story of spending hours getting an LLM to admit ZenML and Temporal solves the same problemIf you're architecting agents for production, picking between Pydantic AI, LangGraph, and Temporal, or just want to understand what "durable execution" actually means — this is the episode.// LINKS & RESOURCESKitaru on GitHub: https://github.com/zenml-io/kitaruKitaru launch blog post: https://www.zenml.io/blog/kitaru-launchKitaru on Hacker News: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47520115Hamza Tahir on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hamzatahirofficial/ZenML: https://www.zenml.io/ Timestamps[00:00] While Loop Checkpointing[00:24] Long-Running Agents Explained[01:28] Agent Harness Model Definitions[06:30] Durability and State Recovery[11:03] Agent Systems Layers[18:45] Durability in Agent Systems[22:07] ML Pipeline vs Transactions[29:23] Durability vs Guarantees[33:13] Durability vs Chaos Engineering[39:50] Kitaru Naming and Purpose[40:38] Wrap up#AIAgents #DurableExecution #OpenSource

The episode identifies a structural shift in how AI adoption is being managed within IT environments: control and accountability are now central concerns, overtaking simple discussions of AI usage or feature deployment. Shadow AI—unmanaged or improperly governed AI agents—has emerged as a tangible risk vector. Government entities, such as the White House, and technology vendors including Microsoft, Cisco, and OpenAI are framing AI not only as a productivity tool but increasingly as a source of operational and security liabilities that demand more robust oversight. A key example comes from an incident reported by TechRepublic in which an AI agent within a coding workflow deleted both a production database and its backups, resulting in a prolonged, business-impacting recovery from a three-month-old backup. In parallel, the Hacker News highlighted findings from scans of one million exposed AI services, characterizing the market's current AI security posture as lacking, with many endpoints widely reachable unintentionally. Microsoft's public transition of Agent365 from preview to release was directly tied to fears over the risks associated with shadow AI, indicating industry recognition of autonomous agents as a new attack surface requiring governance. Supporting developments further validate this trend. Cisco's open sourcing of AI Bill of Materials (BOMs) tools, Wiz's tracking of non-human identities tied to AI workloads, and OpenAI's rollout of advanced account security all signal a growing industry emphasis on making AI deployments auditable and restrictable. Practices such as phishing-resistant authentication—driven by token theft campaigns analyzed by Microsoft—and continuous permission monitoring, as advocated by Material Security, are now increasingly viewed as necessary safeguards rather than optional enhancements. Providers like Enforcer and products such as Copilot Manager are explicitly focused on surfacing shadow AI usage and enforcing credential discipline, underlining the growing demand for proof-of-controls. MSPs and IT service providers now face greater operational complexity and contract risk tied to AI automation. Client expectations are shifting from baseline AI access to demonstrable governance—requiring non-human identity inventories, documented permission boundaries, and validated recovery frameworks for AI-powered workflows. Token harvesting and persistent OAuth grants increase the likelihood that MSPs will be held responsible not just for prevention, but for rapid containment, rollback, and producing evidence during security incidents. Failure to meet tightened SLAs around backup immutability, authentication protections, and agent visibility could soon become a material contract exposure. 00:00 Agents Gone Rogue 03:50 Govern the Agent 06:24 MSP at Risk 09:54 Why Do We Care?  Supported by:  CometBackup ScalePad  Upcoming event:  The Pivotal Point of IT: Building Services for the AI-First Era Date: May 13 at 1p.m. EDT Register: https://go.acronis.com/davesobelaiera

The core structural shift highlighted is the movement of security for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) from best-effort practices to a regulated, continuously verified service operation. This change is being driven by the compression of vulnerability exploit timelines as a result of attackers leveraging both automation and AI, and by regulators imposing hard patching and compliance deadlines. Companies such as ConnectWise and Microsoft are central, with federal agencies (CISA) now converting exploited vulnerabilities into time-bound remediation mandates. A significant development underscoring this shift is the addition of two known exploited vulnerabilities—CVE-2024-1708 in ConnectWise ScreenConnect and CVE-2026-32202 in Microsoft Windows Shell—to CISA's remediation requirements. Agencies must address these by May 12, 2026, marking a move from tracking to deadline-driven action. Reports from Huntress and TechCrunch confirm that real-world attackers rapidly exploit public vulnerability information, and Microsoft's own documentation illustrates attackers increasingly using Microsoft Teams for social engineering, remote assistance, and privilege escalation. Supporting developments include major vendors like Microsoft integrating models from Anthropic into their security development lifecycle to accelerate vulnerability discovery and remediation. However, studies noted by The Hacker News and The Verge indicate that AI-driven discovery is outpacing operational capacity, creating a growing discovery-to-remediation gap. At the organizational level, information from the Reveal 2026 IT Talent Survey indicates that 8 in 10 technology leaders face significant shortages in AI and cybersecurity skills, compounding the operational burden of continuous security verification. For MSPs and IT leaders, these factors combine to increase operational complexity, require more explicit contract scoping and evidence obligations, and shift oversight from periodic compliance towards continuous, demonstrable verification. Contractual ambiguity—especially when services are described as “best effort”—exposes providers to unmeasured labor and unassigned accountability. Practical steps now include reclassifying business collaboration platforms as active attack surfaces, formally auditing and documenting previously “invisible” tasks, and aligning internal operations with external, regulator-mandated verification standards. 00:00 AI Patches Gaps 05:10 Discovery Isn't Enough 07:11 Reprice or Absorb 10:24 Why Do We Care?  Supported by:   Moovila  Zero Networks   Upcoming event:  The Pivotal Point of IT: Building Services for the AI-First Era Date: May 13 at 1p.m. EDT Register: https://go.acronis.com/davesobelaiera
