TWLO has left the chat. (it was down about 90% from peak to trough) (as have many other names, not to pick on twlo specifically). I actually think (and so far am right) that it was massively undervalued at $45 a share.

IMO all of these bullshit fees are just a lack of competition in plain sight. The only fix I can think of is to simply refuse to pay them, either by not buying them that way, or by only patronizing businesses without them. - Resort fe

A lot of startup folks just think a higher "level" just means "Faster". While I agree, I think it's measured more abstractly and across time, than just like "1..2...3.. Go" kind of race on a feature/i
