    💎 Amazing interview with several valuable takeaways:
    00:24 Whether you're a CEO or an engineer, understanding business affects everyone. It is important to grasp the impact of your work on the business and make better decisions.
    01:55 To create impactful products, it is necessary to collaborate with others and build with them. Increasing leverage and impact involves finding problems and coordinating people to solve them together.
    02:40 Running a business and entrepreneurship can be seen as higher-level programming. It involves programming through an organization, its people, norms, culture, and mission.
    04:57 Connecting business context with numbers helps in understanding the impact of decisions. It allows for better planning, forecasting, and decision-making based on key metrics.
    09:23 To create something new and memorable, it requires effort, uniqueness, and pushing the boundaries. Being different and surprising can lead to viral success and recognition.
    09:46 Joining a startup means signing up for the unknown and the possibility of a long journey. It takes time, perseverance, and belief in the long-term vision to build something great and valuable.

    Kudos for highlighting the essence of true innovation. The viral website story is huuge.
    People always wanting to mimic big hitters like Stripe, I see it all the time with my clients. But this video nails it: it's not about copying a look, it's about understanding your users deeply. That's where the real magic happens in design.
