- I’ve yet to meet one person who works from home that actually works from 9am to 5pm with a 30 minute lunch in-between with the occasional bathroom break.
- This is the greatest TikTok I’ve seen this year … I would watch this as a series on Netflix
- Just witnessed my co-founder give up 50% of his equity … it was beautiful.
- If you interview a candidate that completes anything 94% faster than every other candidate you’ve ever interviewed … (1) hire them immediately, (2) fire the hiring manager that passed on them, (3) adapt your interview process, because your talent just evolved.My friends. Think before you use Chat GPT during the interview process.
- Replying to @saradietschyYour internet is 5x faster, you’re just doing things now that require 6x more bandwidth than before … so it feels slower. Like your photos that you send to family members are magnitudes larger than ever before. And now we send full 5 minute cinematic mode videos! 🤷♂️
- Everyone is talking about how fast ChatGPT got to 100M users, I found it fascinating how many things have never even gotten to 100M users - New York Times (9M) - Geico (16M) - HBO (60M) - Bank of America (67M) - Venmo (70M) - Germany (83M)
- Replying to @AustenThe probability of it being Elon is higher. And, even if it liquidated all of it, nothing about his existence would change, financially.
- Replying to @timokonkwo_“resigned” reads more accurately as “retired”.
- What a startup really thinks about the “what if the larger, publicly traded company, were to build a competitive offering”
- Replying to @sanjazakovskaMy fear is that it puts folks in a position to want to pay you in relation to what you’ve been paid previously. Your previous salary should have very little influence in your current salary negotiations. You’re worth what they’re willing to pay that you can convince them of.
