The Rules That Don't Exist
Most hobbies come with an unofficial rulebook nobody wrote. The rules spread, people follow them, and something simple becomes unnecessarily hard. This is about why that happens and what to do about it.

What people say
Friends, colleagues and clients — in their words.
He thinks in products AND pixels. Rare to find someone who does the strategy and sweats every detail of the craft.
Brought real sponsors and structure to the festival. Reliable, warm, and impossible to out-work.
The PM every founder wishes they had. Turned our payments product around in weeks, not quarters.
Cut our AI inference costs 9× and never once made it sound complicated. A genuine builder.
Impossibly curious. He’ll learn a whole new stack over a weekend just to prototype an idea that won’t leave him alone.
Tanishk is who you call when it needs to be built right and built now. He just makes things happen.
