Here’s a good visual of that in action: https://twitter.com/ShaulTurner/status/1476722513195405315?s... # But really, any #MarshallFire twitter post right now.

I live in the neighborhood, but we are just outside of the evacuation zone. This part of Colorado is — in other times — a really nice mixed-use set of communities. It has a lot of open fields, farms, businesses, and “old town” town centers

For the record here, in addition to the fines, there is an additional unreported price of legal costs to fight this and compliance costs to fulfill obligations as per settlement. It's not quite an iceberg costs, but I guarantee they hi

The thing is, in many cases you don't need to know if the diagnosis is correct, so long as the results are directionally correct. If the outcome is an improvement in health, that meets your threshold for value delivered, hence payment

The article proposes prepayment options. Why not go to the "other, other obvious" solution, which is results-based payments? In healthcare, that's value-based care. In other industries w/ agent-principle problems, it&#x2

From experience in DTC retail, this is more of an AR (not VR) benefit. I think (because I can’t remember the exact examples) that Amazon, IKEA, and a few others already do a “See it in your room!” feature. With smartphones with LiDAR&#x2F

Author here! I didn’t even think about it from an organizational learning perspective - this was written with individual learning in mind. I run a product team and this is a challenge we have as well - I think that requires a balance betwee

Correct - execution is more important than $, but I'd say that 75% of the time, execution is the byproduct of some intersection of capacity and access to capital. Not always, but often enough. So if you're competing against a VC-b
