1/ Today we're unveiling Mighty: a faster browser that is entirely streamed from a powerful computer in the cloud.

Demo in the next tweet 👇

New website: mightyapp.com
2/ A quick little demo showing @MightyApp in action: indistinguishable from Google Chrome running at 4K, 60 frames a second, while taking no more than 500 MB of RAM.
3/ Here's my piece outlining Mighty's master plan to reignite the future of desktop computing: blog.mightyapp.com/mightys-secret…

It's time to build a new kind of computer.
4/ During the first year, I documented every little thing that I encountered while building Mighty if you're looking for a soap opera starring me:

(Not as exciting at Silicon Valley the TV show)
5/ We are ramping up server capacity for Mighty all over the world. Please bear with us as we start with California and New York City. Why is it hard to scale? We build custom servers with the latest hardware and deploy them as close to you as possible.
6/ Thank you to friends, family, and our amazing investors for supporting us this far—we couldn't have done it without you. A special thanks to some of our biggest supporters: @mwseibel, @tonsing, @paulg, @garrytan, and @mlevchin for your near blind faith & trust in me.

1/ The first 18 months of a startup:

After starting my 2nd company in 2019, I decided I would write down useful lessons I learned or re-learned along the way. Some were hard-earned & others required steady focus. A thread that I hope may help other founders starting out 👇
2/ Clarifying your plans: the first thing I did was write down a 7-page Elon Musk-style master plan. Write down what problem you plan to solve, how you'll solve it, and why it's important. Then have your smart friends critique it. Let no valid question go unanswered.
3/ End every conversation with an expert about your industry with: "Why do you think I am going to fail?" to lean into brutally understanding what you need to de-risk.

It’s Q2, email those investor updates—good or bad. It’s not for them, it’s for you.

Start building discipline early.
If you don’t have investors, write to a mentor.
If you don’t have a mentor, write to your optimistic, smart friends.

Introducing our first @MightyApp hacking bounty:
- Support Twitter Emoji's in Chromium on Ubuntu
- $5,000 to the first person who submits a working patch + video proof
- Make this library work but with Chromium: github.com/eosrei/twemoji…
- Test: Go to notion, use emoji for a page
Happy to answer and clarify this bounty through the comments of this thread.

The spirit of this bounty is to have nice emoji's on Linux Chromium browsers since they're quite ugly otherwise.

The patch can be made opensource—we don't view this as core IP.
I will happily have a 60 min call with whoever wins first and second place helping you either with your startup or just to make your acquaintance.

Second place prize: $1,000 + video hangout.

1/ Thread of Q&A from this:
2/ When do we get to Mars? 5.5 years.
3/ Great civilizations go through a similar arch: technological improvements, become less resilient, and fall. There's a possibly a short window of time to become multi-planetary.

1/ An ongoing thread about all the interesting announcements I am hearing from @nvidia this week...
2/ "AI software analyzes the key facial points of each person on a call and then intelligently re-animates the face in the video on the other side. [...] reduce video bandwidth consumption down to one-tenth of the requirements of the H.264 streaming video compression" Image
3/ Demos of futuristic Zoom calls here that will blow your mind:

The first B2B game is going to create a new category. It’ll have to be different than normal games though for it to succeed in work culture. Probably less individually competitive and more co-op while scaling to 8-20 people.
Things it needs:
- Less violent
- Co-op but teams can compete
- Voice chat
- Auth by Slack/Google
- < 45 min play times for quick turnarounds
- Hand/eye coordination independent
- Works on computers/mobile
- Encourages fun post-game chatting
- Automated/randomized team balancing
Among Us is the closest, most fun game I’ve seen that could be a great B2B game.
