Oddly relevant for my multiyear project on getting my dog to vibe code b2b saas products https://dogomation.darefail.com/

Pretty neat! I actually ran across that right before publishing - I didn't want to see what was around until after I had the whole thing locked in. I love the novel input!

I saw https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47139675 and figured this multiyear project was relevant for more serious dog owners

I run a live chat / SMS / email tool and decided to test sending the customer's requests directly to the code base. They are always a few who complain about certain buttons not being in a good spot or wording or not having dark mode.

This is a way for them to customize it to what they want

Thanks for sharing, absolutely amazing

This is sick - I happen to run a site for DIY and community organizations like yours. We have proven the best way to fundraise is to throw events like you did but to upsell people on a recurring donation when they get the ticket.

On the off chance you are throwing another event, I would love to help you raise much more than $800 one time (my site is https://withfriends.events/)

Thanks! We are working on another event for december. Our goal is to do a show roughly every 3 months. Whats the best way to reach you?

How do you raise money for an event and also keep track of things for taxes?

Short answer is I would just recommend one of the tons of tax software out there specific to LLC, individual, 501c3. My site helps with the raising money part and just integrates and gives advice for that

I have been testing out better methods than the typical cold calling and emails and think I really nailed it.

I found this technology has many applications beyond outbound sales as well

Yep https://dare.fail/ but also at least finish the things

This is the craziest thing I’ve seen in awhile

He was originally a big investor not a founder (or at least set it up to look that way)

If you read what I wrote, it doesn't even need to actually be 5 years if the person does some creative stuff with options which I have personally seen.

Sure, to delay the "sale". A surefire way to go from minimal value to multiples of $10 million in fewer than 5 years is even rarer.

There's no legal 'creative stuff with options' to get around the five-year holding requirement. QSBS can be rolled over into other QSBS without restarting the clock, or you can agree to delay the actual sale (including payment) until you've met the holding requirement. At the end of the day, though, you have to hold the stock for five years, and any early payment you take (e.g. for writing options) is taxed normally.
