@Alex_Danco thanks for writing this: alexdanco.com/2021/01/11/why… There is an old Yiddish proverb that says, "Nothing tastes more bitter than the truth." Needless to say, I 'puckered' quite a few times reading this truth bomb. Time to make some lemonade Canada.

I wonder if virtual voice assistants will ruin the game 'charades' for future generations when so many tasks can be accomplished simply via voice command 🤔 #ripcharades

@jason curious if you have chosen a new host city for #LaunchFestival 2020/21?

Wrapped up a great week in #LosAngeles & #SanFrancisco sharing the amazing traction we r achieving @tryknowhow w/ clients & investors. Once again, returning home w/ new wisdom, feedback, contacts. The Valley is like a metronome set at 200bpm, great to re-sync. #upandtotheright ⚡️

@LAUNCH Accelerator is doing the right things right! I had the privilege of being invited to sit in on a *weekly* cohort pitch event. Nine VCs representing nearly a BILLION in investable capital provided candid feedback to 7 world-class pitches. So much learning 🤯 #dothework

Thinking about what type of Founder Archetype I fit. Humble Operator? Agile Visionary? Seasoned Executive? What version of Story Teller do I fall into? How is my Founder-Market-Fit? Great questions for personal reflection. Thank's for the wisdom @_changxu from @BasisSet. @launch

Let’s see...One part rocket fuel, a dash of lithium, two parts polycrystalline silicon, and some sandalwood (cause you gotta have that sandalwood). I propose we extend the name to “Elon molecule” @MRamsey92 thoughts?

@listenlearn_act there is an amazing Alberta modular construction company that is well positioned to tackle this if the funding was in place. They build ‘LEGO-style’ building that can be repurposed as needs evolve. San Jose is doing some interesting things as well.

Merci!

News: Zuckerberg expresses his intention for @Facebook to directly compete with @Shopify and other eCommerce SaaS companies.

This appears to be Casper's business: Buy mattress at $400. Sell at $1,000. Refund/return 20% of them. --> Keep $400, on avg. ... then spend $290 of that on ads/marketing. ... and $270 on admin (finance, HR, IT). --> Lose $160. Repeat.

To pick up a set of #AirPodsPro the only place I could buy them was literally at the Cupertino headquarters store. Is this indicative of poor production planning or a remarkably successful product launch. After testing them out, definitely the latter. Bravo @Apple
