Ben has a pathology. Like SOD (Startup Obsessive Disorder) or something like that. It's like a biological inability to both actually go on with any project and not be involved in any project. He's always stuck in the initial phase of development, because it's a good feeling when your creativity can flourish and it's the part of development where it's actually enjoyable. Then it starts to become work, he quits and founds another startup
@@sinom [-1] in python means the last element. What he meant in the video was that this log of his startup was his last which makes sense if u know python. So how wld It confuse ppl who know python ?
@@hasanrampurawala6393 because that is different from being "out of bounds" and he called it "out of bounds" instead of something like "index last". In Python -1 ISN'T out of bounds. In most other languages it is.
I really don't get how it would work. Creators don't care about their most beloved or loyal fans, they will post their work, reply within a timeframe to the first few then forget about it and keep checking for how many views. How would it serve them to connect with loyal fans when it's not benefiting them. They could use platforms like Patreon or Only fans to allow access to "loyal fans" so they can fleece more money from them. Honestly as a creator himself how on earth could he not see the exchange of value was none existent. On a platform like RUclips, you only care and want to connect with the RUclips algorithm and make your video go viral and get more people to watch your stuff. I wish he continued with it and I would love to see if I was correct
Ben Awad's "track record" of videos tells me it's a meme, so does the concept of the app - such a (imho) terrible concept, but the time he's spent on making these videos tells me it's not.
That actually exists, it's called a startup factory. Some of them specialise on building MVPs for early stage startups with non tech founders. There's also some dev freelancing as "CTO as a service"
this dude just drops crazy good stuff works on it for weeks, then he dips outahere, i mean he is talented. So, i don't think it matters to him he will just work for weeks on another one then dips again but its fun lol, keep it up we are here for you
you should create an app about a sort of social network based around startup creation. Like people that create startups getting to know eachother and helping eachother.
On the matter of the icon, don't take it personally if someone else with expertise is telling you an emoji won't work as a logo; gain momentum from that criticism to improve and all the best mate.
I hear it all the time... marketing people are killing projects. My idea is something like community driven development, asking the users what they want and decide with polls on what to develop next.
Honestly ben, you gotta see things through. Doge house was a great concept, gotta learn to pivot. I think give at least 1 year into a project you’re announcing. Quitting because of co-founder differences is very discouraging and you gotta understand the people that are watching you are like believing in you. Please don’t quit so easily it really sucks to see. Fight harder man.
@@ezepheros5028 who said he owes us anything? It’s a free world, so do as you please just understand the consequences. I’m simply being honest with the perspective of how it looks to someone excited and then this happens. I’m not mad or ordering anyone to ever do anything in life, but some things are disappointing and discouraging to see or follow. This is definitely one of them. (As a long time and honest follower myself). Still wishing him and everyone else the best.
idk man, like he said startups pop up as quickly as they disappear. ditching one is not like he's quitting programming. He's just working on a new project. Why stay on a project that you are not 100% satisfied with? If the cost of starting a new startup isn't big for him, then why stay?
You just like the beginning of projects, the amazing productivity and technology choices you can make. The rapid progress is exhilarating at first and then it gets boring. You should really work more on your project's concept to find something you're passionate about and will work on all the way through. Also, you should be the sole founder, as you seem to really hate people having different ideas. This way you can make all the decisions
Not sure you listened to what he said based on that anlysis. He literally just mentioned he's found his passion: 'creating for creators'. I think he's been wise to exit early after discovering him and his co-founder just have different mindsets (which is unsurprising given product/software people compared to marketers tend to have very different approaches to building an early stage product). There's a fine line between exiting too early and exiting too late when things aren't working. Better to do it now rather than later when everyone is much more heavily invested.
"You just like the beginning of projects, the amazing productivity and technology choices you can make" - he pretty much worked way beyond the initial stages of the project with the doge clubhouse thing, so I don't think this is an accurate take. "You should really work more on your project's concept to find something you're passionate about and will work on all the way through" - he literally just said in the video that his next venture is going to be in the creator economy space, which was the exact same industry he worked on with astral fans. "you seem to really hate people having different ideas" - really bad assumption to make if you don't know the full context of why he made the decision to leave. tldr: this comment makes it look like you're bashing Ben for once again "failing" on another project with all these weird assumptions, as if the whole point of building a startup wasn't about experimenting. edit: typos

Ah yes, the startup cycle

Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Come on Ben, I'm not even over DogeHouse yet
Hahah, he's really taking that 'fail fast, fail often' thing to heart.
- create startup
- get hyped about it
- leave it
- repeat
At least you'll be always hyped by something each time
that's right
Agree !!

Exactly this.
Lmao you described me perfectly
"i am not burned out" says Ben who was not active on social media for weeks and suddenly comes back with a video about his departure from his startup
sounding like drank a pint of NyQuil
if it helps apparently Ben is extremely active on tiktok. his comments are extremely h0rny though, so beware
Basically, Ben Awad just wants to keep coding in React and Typescript. That's it.
he's reading this from a script like a hostage.
Ben: use the f-boy emoji as logo or I leave. 😂

Ben is probably an Angular developer working at FAANG and is just trolling us all
"neither of us were wrong in our approaches" oh ben...
Yeah I did a big facepalm there
The curse of developers … being able to implement a solution doesn’t necessarily means that the product should exist … And yet the cycle continues.
Isn’t this the reason why product design / UX has become so important. The glue between marketing and dev
@@shandyooo UX is the hard and important part. Everything technical is trivial
Looks like his RUclips video startup Is the only startup working out well 😅
You are awesome Ben ....i love what you do.
Ben's philosophy of startups:
1. Start
2. Cancel
3. Repeat
Everyone's philosophy of startups
Literally how it works lol
All the best for the next venture. Looking forward to it.
Rip Hyperfan 😂 Ben you do realize that you’re the only reason anyone even tried the app. I feel bad for the cofounder
Good for you Ben and good luck with your next launch
Dude I love this channel
Great to see realistic videos, best wishes for what’s coming
Hopefully you had a good equity agreement in place since your work so far will still be helping the company even with your departure.
''Welcome to hyperlog, index out of bound""
Most based intro ever.
No, it's pythonic syntax for last index. So the last hyperlog
Wishing you the best bro !!
You should create a startup that creates startups!?
That actually exists, it's called a startup factory.
Some of them specialise on building MVPs for early stage startups with non tech founders.
There's also some dev freelancing as "CTO as a service"
Someone has commitment issues. Well, looking forward to seeing your next project...to the moon!
can we get a 'quit thursday' series?
(just kidding it's part of the job)
Ben's pulling an Erlich Bachman until he finds his pied piper lol.. keep at it Ben!
Keep going get another startup
The tie 😂 haha
It's extremely difficult to startup a social network app. Even if you do, Facebook could probably crank it out way faster then you could.

this is getting better and better :D
Your videos are very awesome 👌 👏 👍
Okay, we can subscribe to your RUclips channel too Ben. You asked for this.
Looking forward to the next startup
This is your third one in the killing spree, you can press the right button to call the UAV now.
you should create an app about a sort of social network based around startup creation. Like people that create startups getting to know eachother and helping eachother.
Waiting for your next start up 😜
damn, I was more invested in this than dogehouse but it is what it is... good luck on the next one bro!!
As much as I enjoy this stuff, I miss Ben's coding videos. Anything coming up?
I need more content 😭🥰
You are a legend.
Fail early, fail fast, fail often.
i didn’t understand anything in this video but you looked good
dude is about to pull a zuckerberg move lol
I need you to finish hyperfan. My laptop keeps overheating.
Hi Ben, I am proud of you, love HyperFan, you inspired me to make a startup, I am working on it!
Yea ma boy keep up
finally we all knew it was gonna happen but i am surprised it took this long
The actual startup founder experience
Increasing frequency and length of videos, when?
Why am I not surprised ? 😆😂😂😂
great tie.
Make sure you use the unicorn logo for your next startup.
Gotta send the correct message to the masses.
imagine he makes a startup that competes with hyperfan
this guy my favorite standup artist))
"Commit"ment issues 😂
This some high level satire dawg
Hey Ben where do you find people to do graphics for your app/website?
So when is this next one gonna end? 🤔😂

I'm not surprised that's the cycle
I'm starting to see a pattern here 😂
Did anybody told you to code in Angular ? :)
meanwhile i'm looking for only one startup idea
Surprised to see the amount of people saying that they knew it all along and poking fun at Ben's situation.
Yeah, but I think Ben shouldn’t publicize anything about his next project, because he kinda hyped it up just for it to die
That sucks but looks like he's handling it 💯
I see an Avalanche tshirt on TikTok and I ape - hello sir
What about the podcast tiktok? X2
