@iiiitsandrea Their OG stores in DC had them for the first few years - I loved the guac greens in a wrap. Think they did away with them as they expanded originally to simplify operations

@FreightAlley Thanks! One of the reasons I think its fascinating - only 18 months, a failed business, and yet it lives on

@MasonMarkR Great article. Nice job. I wish I could have gone in more depth, but it was such a blip of time that it almost didn’t make the final cut.

The Pony Express, one of the most iconic transportation networks ever created, only lasted 18 months. The rider, usually a teenager, would go 75-100 miles (switching tired horses about every 10-15 miles) before handing off the letters to another rider on horseback. From: Moving the World

@preston_holland I shudder to think the number of term papers that are getting turned in rife with em dashes

Every time I see an em dash now, I assume it was written by ChatGPT.

My conversation with @GrahamCWeaver, the founder of Alpine Investors. Graham built this large private equity firm by buying companies and handing them over to ~27-year-old CEOs. He tells the entire story of the firm here. Enjoy!

@bryce I just had a similar experience a few months ago - one dealership seemed to want me to prove my interest was real by doing a test drive… which means I didn’t buy a car from them

Bought two cars today. One dealership wanted me to come down to the lot, get on a bunch of calls and refused to send me basic info over txt. The other was willing to send me anything I needed and requested over txt and email. Can you guess which one got the sale(s)?

@FreightAlley A private version would basically be the NE Corridor/Acela and maybe Pacific Surfliner. My understanding is that everything else hemorrhages money. A lot of senators would have to explain to their constituents why there is no more passenger rail in 40 states

It’s amazing how every time I accidentally click on the “for you” tab on this site, it’s basically a gazillion tweets by the owner, and then some other stuff.

@micsolana Initially was on my “no brainer renew” list along with Cometeer…. Then the reverse network effects kicked in hard and it’s basically useless. Haven’t used it at the airport last 5-6 times although it did get me into MSG quicker….

I’m not sure if anyone has heard this yet, but Saquon is partnering with Ramp. Feels like this should be bigger news, haven’t seen it at all on my timeline!
