    Maybe relevant for Stripe? Based on their acquisition of Indie Hackers, it seems like they’re adept at this kind of acquisition. And online security contributes to their goal of increasing “the GDP of the internet.“

    You may be right, but you're making a very strong claim. It's not obvious to me that it's correct.

    I find Pipenv very nice, but it is controversial.

    Thanks for sharing. Glad to hear that you're happier today. I'd be interested in hearing what changes to society you think you would have made things better for you. Also, in the absence of any societal changes, do you think your

    I don't think you have to have different industries or markets in order for it to be diversification. I think it's enough that the assets are not perfectly correlated.
