LinkedIn finds out about tech news a week after we all talk about it on 𝕏.
If our plan works, we could shorten that to as little as 5 days.
- The cigarette industry is declining at 10% per year now on volume, but revenues are flat because they keep raising prices. If the trend continues eventually there will be just 1 single smoker who personally spends $75 billion per year on cigarettes.
- Reminder: You have to refer to RFK Jr. as Dr. Kennedy because he has a Juris Doctor law degree. This precedent was set during the last administration with Dr. Jill Biden, who has a Doctor of Education degree.
- If you’re building a hard tech company in 2025, you should prioritize getting a massive diagonal elevator platform installed in your HQ to make it easy to descend into the lower levels and access the underground portion of your facility.
- Elon-Twitter is a distraction. FTX is a distraction. The only story that you should be paying attention to right now is the United States vs China situation. Here's a primer on what's going on:
- if Twitter starts charging $8 per month, Apple is going to take $2.40 of that. very interested to see if Elon tries to find a way around that. he’s never been hit with the Apple tax before.
- Biden will be 81 next year Trump will be 78. Stop saying “we need to elect someone younger” — the accelerationist choice is obvious. Jimmy Carter. He’ll be 100 years old and he’s still eligible because he only served one term back in 1977.
- Tariffs up 50%. Stocks down 5%. You know what hasn’t changed? What benching 225 for reps feels like. Time to visit the church of iron boys.
- This is who you’re trading against.The Vatican has more Bloomberg terminals than the UK Treasury I believe ?? (Post from LinkedIn)
- This video made me love Poland. 🇵🇱 It’s propaganda but it actually worked. I’m actually more pro-Poland now.
- People talk about AI being a “friend” but my real friends would never hesitate to infringe on Disney intellectual property if I needed help designing a birthday card.
- engineering candidate sends you a pic of this wfh setup. do you hire them?
