Five systems behind fifty bets.
These public previews condense the book's authored operating chapters into answer-first notes. They document one portfolio's decisions and failure modes without presenting them as universal advice or guaranteed outcomes.
One server, fifty bets
Why the entire portfolio runs on a single rented machine, and why boring infrastructure is a competitive advantage.
OPERATING NOTE 2The agent factory
How one person ships fifty products with AI coding agents — and the production outages it took to learn the rules.
OPERATING NOTE 3Checkout before perfection
Payments wisdom from fifty checkouts: what prices work, what breaks silently, and why the buy button ships first.
OPERATING NOTE 4Traffic is a craft
SEO sprints, programmatic page factories, one whale keyword, and the liberating math of pages that get zero clicks.
OPERATING NOTE 5Kill, keep, double down
Portfolio triage, clone hygiene, the discipline of honest status labels, and why most of your products should be allowed to die.
