Making the audience laugh and making a product that your customers enjoy is surprisingly similar, I think. It’s either funny or it’s not funny. Also you end up telling a lot of bad jokes

Something to continuously putting yourself out there regardless of whether people accept what you are putting out or not. I think there’s something to be said about - believing that there are people who believe in the direction that you want to see, and see the nuance that you see. Maybe it’s courage

This part doesn’t get spoken about often creating some new - it’s emotionally harrowing - in a way that is both life affirming and - taxing - you have to endure

oddly, or not, my favorite book about the creation/entrepreneurial journey and process is also by a comedian - Born Standing Up by Steve Martin

It’s also a risk, you’re just continually putting yourself out there to get destroyed but hell yeah let’s do it anyway. Something to it

But you don’t want your customers laughing at your product (jokes)

Digital has a grain or texture to it. Product too. Sometimes you want people to “feel” more than others. It is akin to grid systems in graphic design and breaking them to create emphasis. Or inserting a minor note in a major chord. Sometimes you want to make someone notice and feel something.
