Lewis on pole with Ferrari is crazy! And Lewis and Max ahead of both McLarens in sprint qualifying. Really hope this year continues like this.

@robgcarroll Hey!! Congrats man!

Some personal news:

@agarwal When we lived there we had 2 bikes stolen and our car broken into 3 times. We only reported the first bike theft, and never did after that as it was pointless.

A lot of people don't report crimes like car break-ins because there's no point. But even looking at reported crimes, San Francisco still tops the list of larceny thefts and car break-ins among cities in California. This is bad for residents, tourists, businesses, everyone.

@cronair I am liking just the name Utah Hockey Club more and more.

Best jerseys in the league and I need one now.

@cronair Data not right (every large drop not during trump is carefully removed, about 6 days in 2022 missing from this list) and slightly disingenuous given most of the largest daily point gains in DOW history also came during 2020. Not standing up for him, just bad data/argument.

@cronair manager: What were your assumptions for this forecast? me: Vibez😎

When my vibes-based hosting cost forecast is more accurate than the regression models.

@weames Great work man, only the beginning!

PSA: Our Series A fundraise leaked last week, so here it is straight from the horse's mouth. A lot can happen in four years. Four years ago this month, almost to the day, Bryce Bunker and I connected online and discussed a pilot of what an internet-first funeral services company could look like. Three years ago this month with one full-time employee we decided it was working and we needed to go all in on the opportunity! In those four short years—which at times have felt like an eternity—we’ve gone from a half-baked idea to one of the leading innovators in end-of-life, serving thousands of families across the US. The tides in the industry were beginning to turn and have experienced more changes in the last 10 years, than the prior 100. A sea change is now coming, and while the industry has made valiant efforts to adapt to what consumers want, in many ways, it has missed the mark. After not only represents the change that needs to happen in the industry but is also leading the charge in advocating for more transparent, simple, and affordable funerals. The new way to funeral! While raising capital is a completely separate outcome from running a great company, and in and of itself is not a measure of success, it’s a small signal that we're headed in the right direction and will be a huge catalyst to our continued growth. Onward!

@cronair Guessing it would be less for most individuals since the tax on stocks, bonds, and derivatives would be serious revenue and probably at least 10x the revenue from the 4% tax increase to individuals. Looks like that is where most the burden is for the proposed "medicare for all"

If the tax increase is less than what I’m paying in health insurance premiums, SIGN ME UP

@SaadMalik Would have loved a community like this when I was building my startup and had our daughter. Just exited last year, but will be back at it again.

32, founder, dad, running on fumes. How do I adjust my timeline to see more of my type as opposed to the island hopping single dudes in their 20s doing $10m ARR?

@cronair Usually one of the last people to be let go. Mostly because they are the ones doing the scenario analysis on the layoffs and cost cutting. And if you do get let go you, you will have all the context to see it coming before others.

If anyone out there has some sort of quantitative degree and is considering a career change, look into FP&A. It’s growing quickly both locally and nationally, and is fairly immune to even the big tech layoffs.

@cronair Why is Utah Hockey Club kinda awesome.

Utah Mammoth or Utah HC The rest kinda suck

@cronair Trying to recreate Sol Agaves

Tried my hand at a butter cake… came out a little denser than I wanted so I’ll try a new recipe next time

@cronair @itschappy Absolutely should give ownership to the city/public for the tax $. Any precedent for something like this for any other professional sports ownership group?

@itschappy He should sell some more Qualtrics shares, then. Or give a % of the development to the state/city

… and he’s right.

@cronair Agree that he has the money, why I said owners should get less tax $. Just saying that money to a coach has no implication for his ability/inability to pay for the arena given one is 100x more expensive. Financially irrelevant, but optically bad.

@sarchie4 It’s more than optics when John has enough money for 3 cars as is

To the humorless Cougarboard weirdos: I do not care one bit that Ryan Smith is a BYU booster. In fact, I think it’s great! What I hate is that he wants taxpayers to augment his business pursuits. If he has cash to burn on BYU coaches, he should stop asking the legislature for $

@cronair Big problem is there has been too many precedent cases of this happening. Gives more leverage to owners as they know they can get it in most areas.

We need this kind of backbone in Utah instead of bowing to billionaires

@nlsanders hshstshshshshshss does good work. Better pay before it gets sent to collections

All in a hard days work! Seems legit.

@WYHighwayPatrol on I-80 east at Elk Mountain and have been at a standstill for 3 hours. Heard it was a wreck. Any idea on timing to start moving?

@z_blair Please trademark "cosplaying in Carhartt". Would be a dope collab, The Tree Farm x Carhartt.

I’ve simply learned you can’t win with the “haters” … i thought giving some visitors an opportunity to visit a private club they don’t usually have access to would be a nice thing. Instead I’m a cosplaying hobbit carpetbagger

@Codie_Sanchez We have done 6 retrievals and 5 transfers (none covered by insurance) and have used many different clinics and doctors. We got our wonderful daughter on our 5th transfer. We have more in our future. Happy to share more.

I want to do a deep dive into the real cost of IVF, and trying to have a kid in todays world. The more I learn the more it breaks my heart. Anyone willing to share?
