2.7b / 240 = 11.25m paid users. Feel like they’re just scratching the surface of potential users.

Can’t really see the appeal of watching robots race each other, the post season Netflix series would be rather dull.

I think “digital nomad” tends to refer to remote workers (often working with companies based in their home country) who travel around, “economic migrant” refers to workers moving to a country where there are better job opportunities, speci

Wow, do not understand this approach some founders take. Being “radically” transparent by showing your cap table and talking through liquidation prefs/exit scenarios with every single employee is an absolute prerequisite for me. For me

Been running my startup for 7 years, not a unicorn but fairly successful. Can honestly say I’ve not made it through a single one of these books. Certainly have tried and have got a few nuggets, but nothing has compared to learning this stuf

Yeh I just can’t see it working well. Surely it would be so uncomfortable to work up even a minor sweat with this thing strapped to your face.

Value has been taken. Motivation to create has been taken if the second you upload something it gets sucked in to a model that any old person can create infinite iterations.

Agree, not sure it’s helpful for a regulator to bankrupt a business for sending too many emails. Spam email is pretty par for the course nowadays. This seems like a proportionate response to alert them to get a handle on it.
