Folklore finds | An excerpt from The Folklore monthly | Edition #10

A few 'Folklore finds' from the founders, investors and builders at Folklore –

• The latest episode of the Auror podcast, The Intel, shares unique insight on the 'State of Organised Retail Crime in Canada with Sean Sortun'. 

• Mitchell Bissinger recommends this read on 'Vibe-coding a production app', because "it shows how much the output of talented / clear-thinking engineers can be augmented, and how this may widen the gulf between the good and the great in terms of what they can do with their time."

• Komodo recently shared a couple of case studies (here and here), which should act as a reminder of the importance of creating and proving enduring customer value.

• Sachin Samarawickrama recommends this breakdown of MCPs, "I liked the part where they talk about infra / app layer developing in parallel (vs. infra then app -> instead, app developments draw demand for infra which leads to better apps etc.)"

• With almost 10 episodes under their belt, this episode of the SimConverse podcast looks to the future of AI in Healthcare. 

• Laura Warden recommends this read on 'Why good leaders act like pilots.' "This resonates with me as working in startups is turbulent and the importance of staying "steady" while maintaining transparency, where necessary, is a delicate balance leaders need to strive for."

• Rochelle Ritchie strongly recommends listening to both parts (1 and 2) of The Rolling Stones breakdown on The Rest Is History podcast. "It's an example of anti-messaging done well - finding a niche and growing distinct characters over time. It's even better than the Taylor Swift Acquired episode."
