I've been a founder my entire adult life and my definition of "founder mode" is more of a "founder loop": Try best to craft product for customers/users; Meet and talk with them to gather feedback; Debrief with team to strategize and sequence changes; Repeat for as long as you're a founder.

I wrote a game called Night Mission when I was 16 and I just saw a gameplay video for it while using Surf tonight. How cool! [www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvu8...]( ) [Night Mission for the TI-99/4A...]( )
