@FoundersPodcast Just how dominant? For a prime example: go to altis.to and filter Starlink satellites (as opposed to OneWeb and GPS, etc). They're... everywhere ;-)

SpaceX is one of the most dominant companies on the planet and their performance gap just keeps getting bigger. In 2025, SpaceX launched more mass to orbit than every other provider on Earth combined. MUCH MORE: every payload from China, Russia, Europe, and all American launchers wasn’t even a fifth of what SpaceX put into orbit. They’re the only company producing rockets at an industrial scale. The practices that made SpaceX dominant aren’t unique to rockets. They’re a blueprint for building anything hard. This episode — and the essay it is based on — explores How SpaceX Works:

@JamesCurrier Re the Disguised Marketplaces presentation you did a The Marketplace Conference: you didn’t mention plain e-commerce as a potential “disguise”. Any particular reason?

@MailerLite I've run into a couple minor UX issues: (1) when working with a reduced viewport, I can't create new campaigns as the button is hidden, and (2) When preparing to send a campaign on a MacBook, scheduling options are hidden below the fold causing... accidents ;-)

🌐 **Federated Ecosystems**: Don't get caught in the hierarchy vs. flatness debate. Opt for a federated ecosystem—autonomous entities united by shared governance. Scale without sacrificing adaptability. #organizationaleffectiveness

Large orgs are like oil tankers; Small orgs are like speedboats. A familiar analogy. @ravi_mehta provides a different take on @lennysan's podcast: Orgs are like cars: big ones drive fast, which makes turning difficult; small ones drive slowly, which makes turning easier. 🤔

@HelenBevan As Fred Kofman explains in this video, your job is ultimately to help your company fulfill its purpose. How you do that will change with time. But the ultimate goal will not. youtube.com/watch?v=6OI7RE…

Job descriptions are changing. As the pace of change quickens & organisations move toward more project-based work, static JDs that set out a series of tasks/duties don't work as well. Three new approaches are emerging: 1) Outcomes focussed: specify the outcomes expected from a role rather than the specific tasks the person is required to perform 2) Skills focussed: emphasis shifts from the tasks a person is supposed to complete to their talents & how those can be applied 3) Team-based: Rather than individual JDs, there is a collective set of objectives, outcomes & deliverables hbr.org/2023/10/a-new-… By @ANietoRodriguez

As organizations grow, they face increasing "coordination headwinds" which can stifle progress and innovation. Alex Komoroske suggests we learn from slime molds and build organizations that consist of disparate units that collaborate seamlessly. docs.google.com/presentation/d…

The theory of "creative destruction", introduced by Joseph Schumpeter in 1942, is a pertinent reminder to always think long-term, ensuring we're not just reacting to immediate changes but preparing for the future.
