We got these phone booths (a K6 from the 1930s, and a KX100 from the 1990s) for the @stripe lobby, as a reminder that there are always two paths in everything we make: something that elevates and makes you smile, or, well, whatever the thing on the right is.

July 2024 office foot traffic hit 72.2% of July 2019 levels—the highest since the pandemic. Despite some mandates aiming for “voluntary turnover” (i.e., encouraging some workers to quit), stricter face time policies are boosting office presence.

This sounds like a trivial observation and it isn’t:
No organization which makes its people pay for coffee wants to win.

Before Stripe had a real office, our "conference room" was Fraiche Yoghurt on Emerson Street in Palo Alto. We took our customer and investor meetings in the cosy private booth there. When we saw them closing down the store, we asked could we have the booth and they said sure!

Scoop: A company called MowPod has been selling podcasters and networks a tool that yields more followers on Apple Podcasts, resulting in a "significantly elevated position" on the app's charts. It told clients it achieved this by putting banner ads on websites. In reality, and unbeknownst to many clients, it also incentivized gamers to follow shows through in-game rewards. Wondery, Alex Cooper of Call Her Daddy, Lemonada and Netflix are among its customers. In fact, of the top 50 shows in the US yesterday, I spotted nine that had been promoted in games recently.

podcast listeners: how do you feel about audio-only podcasts? Just from a consumer perspective, not as a marketer, creator, etc
I personally don't watch any podcasts on video. Was listening to How Long Gone, a great example of an audio-only pod doing well, & it made me miss people simply yapping into a mic.

What's the right job title for a startup when you want a super scrappy person who can basically do whatever is asked, is self-sufficient, and learns quickly?
But spans multiple departments/roles.
Asking for a friend.

2) office deals are going up but spaces are smaller and more distributed
3) connection is necessary and programs that bring people together are critical

@BenjaminOsgood This building is awesome. The bluebottle on the bottom floor was like a crossroads of the design and construction industry in SF for a long time. I hope someone buys it and treats it well!
