Hey, I'm Alex and I like writing English and TypeScript. I have founded a few companies (most recently Clearbit and Reflect), was an early engineer at Stripe, and I've also written a few O'Reilly books.

Huge fan of yours since I saw you on a podcast. You're an inspiration and I've been following and reading your stuff for years.

My ama, is a bit more personal. With your incredible success how do you remain so humble? Even when stepping down from Clearbit you take the extra step of giving the new ceo credit of being far more qualified than you. I've seen this same behavior so many times from you and always wanted to ask you.

You're an inspiration to tons of silent readers and followers.

Huge fan of all your work, following you from when you were in stripe.

my question is

I live in a 3rd world country, working full-time as a Frontend dev in lugg(YC S15). i want to build a sustainable lifestyle software company, but i have no clue how I can move forward.

there is a popular theme to come up with the idea, “solve your own problem” but i don’t feel confident in them that i can build a good business. then if i can build a business, how can i approach sales

I’m really confused how I can more forward, can you suggest some advice please about

- building a good product - sales that product
