@Chris_Orlob 💯

I talk to 3-5 CROs every week. Every single one complains: "My reps skim through discovery. They find one shallow pain, then rush to demo." If you're stuck below $200K, odds are you don't "get" discovery. You think you do. But you don't.

@JulieBorowski I think you're losing to your kids

Mario Kart is a communist game. It penalizes you for winning and rewards you for losing. I'm in the top 3 getting meh items like single banana peels and green shells. My kids are in the bottom 3 getting the best items like rockets and stars. Total item redistribution.

@SebJohnsonUK Give us a break, we had 2 months of continuous rain & 4 months of darkness

Just strolled through Soho and I must have seen close to two thousand people outside pubs drinking pints. It's 2pm on a Wednesday. Give Londoners a slither of sunshine and they are straight to the pub. No city in the world comes close to a Sunny London.

@pmarca Likely a matter of time until marginal cost of suing goes to zero as well 😅

Overheard in Silicon Valley: “Marginal cost of arguing is going to zero.”

@CACandChill Either

As a founder, what’s harder to fix? 1. A broken product 2. A broken team

@PEoperator AI token spend a KPI?

As a CEO, I am starting to think my #1 job after hiring talent is to deploy AI at every level of the organization.

@jefielding Did u try Claude in PPT?

Spent an hour creating a deck using Claude Code + Slideck. Had a technical AI friend guiding me. Let me tell you, it was hard, not initiative and the deck we produced sucked. Although I believe this is the future, and I’m going to keep plugging away learning. Rest assured, the robots have not taken over just yet…

Major cheat code for life: Increase your recovery speed. You will get rejected. You will lose money. You will embarrass yourself. The goal isn't to avoid the fall. It's to shorten the time between the fall and the reset. Fast recovery compounds.

@Kellblog isn't this driven as much by their markets they operate in as by their capability

So many unicorns (around 1600), and so few centaurs ($100M+ ARR)

@dvassallo In the UK we can

I get the excitement, but these folks should humble up on predicting the future. We can't even predict if it will rain tomorrow.

@Crosschampion7 Tough to get it up, and easy to mess up

My sleep consistency is getting better.

@Kellblog People exist who are buying naming rights to stars & Lord titles

Does anyone actually reply to these emails?

@anothercohen +1

I want a sleep tracker like Oura or Eight Sleep but for my kids. Sleep is arguably the most critical factor for brain development, emotional regulation, and learning in kids but there’s no way to actually measure sleep quality currently. Adults can track HRV, sleep stages, temperature, respiratory rate, etc but the devices for kids are glorified step counters with bedtime reminders. Someone should build this. Would pay a premium (and invest!)

@amasad @benhylak imo a very clever marketing stunt to raise awareness playing to people's fear of AI

@benhylak 90% sure users are prompting this stuff.

this shit is going to kill us

@signulll When it's zero, I gets slippery outside

the fact that most of the world uses celsius is so fucking stupid. it’s objectively terrible ux for humans. zero meaning “water does a thing” is not how anyone experiences temperature. weather is a consumer interface. celsius is an implementation detail that’s actually in prod.

@hnshah When I concluded my first entrepreneurial journey with an exit (7 years), I felt those years flew by, and I missed out on friends, family, personal development, it felt scary. Not because I didn't spend any time on them, but my mindset was constantly on solving the journey ahead

Founders don’t experience time normally. Weeks disappear. Years compress. You’re always living slightly ahead of the present, dealing with consequences that haven’t landed for others yet. You plan in quarters but react in hours. You hold long-term bets while handling short-term damage. Past decisions resurface in unexpected ways. This creates a constant mental overlap. You’re never fully in one moment. You’re always tracking multiple timelines at once. It’s disorienting. It also becomes normal. Founders who struggle try to force balance. Founders who adapt learn how to operate with layered time. They stop expecting clean boundaries. If you need life to move at one speed, this role will feel chaotic. If you can live across horizons, it becomes manageable. That distortion is part of the job.

@elonmusk Buy Ryanair, fix Ryanair, and become Europe's hero of the people

Buy Ryan Air and restore Ryan as their rightful ruler

@nikitabier @levelsio 😂

@levelsio I tried meal prep but if I eat food that is more than 2 days old, I get violently ill. You need the stomach of a nomadic savage for it to work.

So many of my friends would pay for this but hard to find Great little business and there's probably a market for it in every big city

A friend told me that now that they've had a child, her husband can't bear to watch movies in which bad things happen to kids. Same here. That was one of the most surprising things about having children. You're not just protective of your own children, but children in general.
