As metaphors, startups are more like a cycling stage race than sprints+marathons. Vive le Tour de Ad Hoc Markets!

Hey "vibe coders" -- how was your day today? 🤣

SOTU prediction: an evening filled with promises all supported by distortions, distractions, and lies.

@Pavel_Asparagus 😂😂😭

Every Company Rn: "Our services are degraded and our engineers are looking into a remediation plan." The remediation plan:

@Pavel_Asparagus Baseline NYC

Underrated benefit of NYC is this took basically 0 proactive effort, this is just from living my life

@levelsio Congratulations - another "successful" post+replies filled with nonsense masquerading as economics and behavioral economics.

He and you have a fundamental misunderstanding of economics: Money isn't a zero-sum game One person getting rich doesn't make another person poorer, instead usually one person getting rich means they created a product or service that a lot of people benefited from and wanted to spend money on to buy If it's a labor intensive industry, that also creates many jobs that in turn can make more people rich If not labor intensive, then the person who got rich usually spends the money themselves so it goes to other people who can then get rich from them by selling them products and services And of course they can invest it in other people to help them create more products or services while getting a small share of that back for their investment What you really should be angry about is people making it impossible to get rich by creating products and services (like in Europe now) which results in most entrepreneurs and high skilled talent leaving, economic activity decreasing, and making everyone poorer as a result

If AI lets non-developers replace junior developers, imagine what it lets junior developers do.

What science was to the 20th century, social media will be to the 21st.

@MollySOShea @Pavel_Asparagus 🤣🤣🤣

@Pavel_Asparagus I just spent a week in SF, wow, what an incredible place, someone should start a technology revolution there

This is probably one of the most under discussed topics on this site can we get some more folks to weigh in

@Pavel_Asparagus Unless you have a market reason for choosing NYC (e.g. fintech), SF is a safer bet because of density of tech & financing. Additionally, in NYC social time is more diverse, and distracting -- which is not necessarily a good thing for a startup.

@zebulgar Bonjour Dido!

good morning paris! i unexpectedly have an extra 30h here solo this weekend who has got tips on what to do, who to meet

@derjanni @GergelyOrosz Unclear why you're making this unrelated comment - there is no zero sum here.

@GergelyOrosz Yeah, and Epic is totally morally perfect. You can trust them blindly…

Most apps submitted get rejected or approved in a day. Apple has been holding Epic’s Fortnite submission for day 6 now -that uses web payments a nudge ordered Apple to allow in the Epic vs Apple lawsuit. Apple clearly trying to block Epic for as long as they can. Playing dirty.

@zebulgar Such a good boy!

@BackfireBros @trump_repost 🤣🤣🤣 Only thing funnier than your shit-post are the replies! 🤣🤣🤣

@trump_repost Trump will go down as one of the greatest presidents of all time 🇺🇸

For many years the World has wondered why Prescription Drugs and Pharmaceuticals in the United States States of America were SO MUCH HIGHER IN PRICE THAN THEY WERE IN ANY OTHER NATION, SOMETIMES BEING FIVE TO TEN TIMES MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE SAME DRUG, MANUFACTURED IN THE EXACT SAME LABORATORY OR PLANT, BY THE SAME COMPANY??? It was always difficult to explain and very embarrassing because, in fact, there was no correct or rightful answer. The Pharmaceutical/Drug Companies would say, for years, that it was Research and Development Costs, and that all of these costs were, and would be, for no reason whatsoever, borne by the "suckers" of America, ALONE. Campaign Contributions can do wonders, but not with me, and not with the Republican Party. We are going to do the right thing, something that the Democrats have fought for many years. Therefore, I am pleased to announce that Tomorrow morning, in the White House, at 9:00 A.M., I will be signing one of the most consequential Executive Orders in our Country's history. Prescription Drug and Pharmaceutical prices will be REDUCED, almost immediately, by 30% to 80%. They will rise throughout the World in order to equalize and, for the first time in many years, bring FAIRNESS TO AMERICA! I will be instituting a MOST FAVORED NATION'S POLICY whereby the United States will pay the same price as the Nation that pays the lowest price anywhere in the World. Our Country will finally be treated fairly, and our citizens Healthcare Costs will be reduced by numbers never even thought of before. Additionally, on top of everything else, the United States will save TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

@Pavel_Asparagus WTH Reddit was cringe??! Was that what the weird dinner table stares were all about?

On the ground market data: GF who is otherwise not particularly "online" loves Reddit. Able to keep her up to date on reality tv drama as well as NYC news Culture is downstream of the marketing girls so good time to put some longs on the stock Reddit no longer cringe

@Keel9973 @UnsaidAngle @shaunrein Serious question...what would have to happen to convince you that these policies are not working?

I think it is hilarious! Lazy boy Economist on here reading books by economists that have been wrong about our economy for the last 30 years, who think we should keep doing the same thing that got us in debt almost $40 Trillion. BUT WHAT IS HILARIOUS IS THESE LAZY BOY ECONOMISTS ON HERE WHO HATE TRUMP SO MUCH THEY LET IT BIAS THEIR OPINIONS. ALSO, they hate Trump so much they would rather America collapse than Trump succeed, and the only people they will quote or recite are economists that HATE TRUMP! They must be right they are against Trump. These same Lazy Boy economists posting here on X the doom of America's Economy and the failure of Trump ARE THE SAME PEOPLE WHO AGREE WITH THE DEMOCRAT PARTY TO STOP TRUMP AND DOGE FROM HELPING OUR ECONOMY BY STOPPING THE WASTE, FRAUD, THEFT, AND MISUSE OF TAX PAYER MONEY! These moronic LAZY BOY economists here posting on X hate Trump and Elon so much that they hate the people finding the waste, fraud, theft, and misuse of tax payer money, MORE THAN THE PEOPLE INVOLVED AND THE WASTE, FRAUD, THEFT AND MISUSE OF TAX PAYER MONEY! They want and are for the Democrat Representatives who are fighting to keep the waste, fraud, theft, and misuse going!!! You can't take any of you serious! WHY? Because your hatred has blinded you and biased your thinking to the point that you all would rather see AMERICA BURN AND COLLAPSE, EVEN WORSE YOU WILL EVEN HELP IT BURN AND COLLAPSE IF IT KEEPS TRUMP FROM SUCCEEDING! It is pure hatred has made you rabid to the point of madness! HATE WILL DESTROY YOU AND ALL OF YOUR HATRED FOR TRUMP IS LITERALLY TEARING YOU AND THE DEMOCRAT PARTY DOWN!

If you voted for Trump, what is your 'step too far'? Share or write it in your journal. On breach, write your next 'step too far'. And continue. Every time you write a new step, ask yourself: why were my prior steps not, in fact, "too far"...and write that in your journal.

Who's checking on the inside-trading on th 90-day reprieve???

Sooo muuuch winning...for a bunch of fucktards.

This administration is grossly incompetent at every single level. This administration is singularly focused on a single objective. When will you realize that that your objective for your family is orthogonal to their objective? Act now, whilte you can...

FFS, some top officials in this administration have phone numbers and account information freely floating on the interwebz. This administration is The Dunning-Kruger administration.
