@straore 😭😭😭 true. You just gotta find a way to track what happened leading up to an error or force the “shake to report bugs” thing.

“I got turned down by all the top VCs. I offered them 25% of the company for $1 million. The same VCs that rejected me put a lot of money into my competitors. That was very motivational. So I made it my goal to put those companies out of business.” *Adam’s company now has a market cap of $150 billion.

This is the best founder you've never heard of. Adam Foroughi's company prints $5 billion in cash a year with just 400 people. When his stock price dropped by 92%, he borrowed money to buy back $6 billion in stock. That bet made the company more than $60 billion. The entire C-suite is just 4 people. To this day, Adam approves every hire. This episode has the highest insight-to-minute ratio of any conversation I've had so far.

Netflix has hit its subscriber ceiling. Stock is flagging. Subscription price hikes are under scrutiny. Exclusive streaming can no longer off-set billions in lost box office revenue. Over a decade and 225 Netflix Originals in, this is their first ever 45-day theatrical release.
Matthew Belloni@MattBelloni

As predicted, Netflix blinks on NARNIA, Greta and theater owners get their 45 day window, film is delayed to 2/12/27 and will play in Imax AND other formats…

Technology, liberal arts, and human culture are interconnected. That's where great products are derived from. I don't care for what a GitHub/LeetCode Warrior and an ARR-chasing slop creator has to say. That era is ending anyway. The next one is gonna be about QUALITY.

I get this question a lot from founders: “if saas is dead and AGI kills every startup, what do I build?” These are people who confuse raising VC with success. They won’t make it. too afraid to build anything without “institutional credibility” A generation of pure losers
