I’d invest in index funds and similar boring vehicles, not VC, if I wanted a reliable growth business. Perhaps venture into PE if I was feeling saucy and had access. It’s the reality where we reap what we sow

When a few well funded companies absorb all of the growth in headcount do you believe they are allocating resources effectively against the overall economy’s need? That’s what happened here. Company A got cash to burn at no interest. Decide

Boards see this as good “decisioning”. Decisions are made by proportional controllers — money cheap, hire and grow, money expensive, fire and slow. So execs are being very prudent here, according to investors.

Yes. At least from what I’ve seen. They do anything for the home. That’s similar to servants/maids in other countries I’ve seen.

Google runs Disaster Recovery Training annually (DiRT) where security teams are tasked with simulating these “black swan” events. Seems like this practice needs to expand to more industries.

Terry Crews had a clip where he talks about the exercise habit, and how he (not sure if he did this or suggested this) would go to the gym for the time he allotted for exercise each day, even when he didn’t want to. And if he didn’t want to

I believe you’re using “soft”v. “hard” to distinguish what the author calls “inter generational” v “trans generational”. Using this distinction, “soft” epigenetics in your example is just epigenetics. The fetus responding to an external str

When I pause it’s because I’m trying to compose a response and my emotions. Sometimes too fast a response sounds less credible and often times it is — I’ll ramble on a bit longer than I’d like or talk my way into my larger point, possibly l

I believe the “leather” is “vegan leather” which is really plastic. I own a MY — the one plus side to it is it isn’t as cold as leather in the winter.

Likely a lie for less savvy investors. Or they need cash to recapitalize before being able to transfer to wallets. Or people are withdrawing to fiat which would need a bank in many cases. My money is on it being a combination, but that they

In terms of brand safety it has. But we haven’t seen the same backlash as when FB or YT had brand safety issues a few years ago. My guess is because the Elon stories are chumming the water for Twitter stories. Curious if it ever shakes out

Both his parents are/were professors at Stanford Law School, so that’s a fair guess.

To further your point — 20% time was barely a thing in 2010… And they killed all of the OC/Founders awards subsequently so there was really no focus on maverick innovation from then on. Coincided with the end to oysters on Fridays

No space for dumpsters especially in Manhattan. No alleys. Same for bins. They’d either be too big or too small. That’s the rub.

Just the capitalized term EA to me reads like a scam. It’s a new term created to explain some behavior that is simply injurious to the broader population, claiming that its for their benefit. I’m just not sure I buy it.

I had to get an arterial blood gas draw done earlier this year. Despite having an ultrasound which would make it easy to find the right spot in my wrist, the resident decided to “learn” on me by digging her large needle into my wrist and fi

Stem cell therapy (autologous) involves wiping out your entire immune system and then rebuilding it from scratch using your own stem cells. It uses (usually) strong chemo drugs to do the wiping out, which themselves are toxic and have tons

Just don’t go too far past what you can deliver in person. The matching party could feel catfished and that will just push your failure down-funnel. I.E. don’t take shots with perfectly styled hair, a leather jacket, and a motorcycle, if yo
