- Career: Council this: I got a job offer at a startup for 30% more pay, but I'd lose my vesting schedule at my current company. I have 18 months left to fully vest. Should I stay or go?
- Business strategy: War room this: We're a 5-person SaaS startup deciding between going upmarket (enterprise sales, longer cycles, bigger deals) vs staying PLG (product-led growth, self-serve, volume). We have 12 months of runway.
- Technical: Pressure-test this: I'm building a real-time chat app and deciding between WebSockets vs Server-Sent Events. We expect ~10k concurrent users, need message history, and I'm a solo dev.
- Life: Run the council: I'm considering moving from Kanpur to Bangalore for better career opportunities in tech, but my family is here and cost of living is significantly higher there.
- Product: Stress-test this: Should we launch our MVP with a freemium model or a 14-day free trial? We're B2B, targeting small teams, and our product has a learning curve.
