@shaunmmaguire @sshaf91 @thestustustudio @grok How would you explain what ibadah means for someone who doesn't know anything about Islam?

@sshaf91 @thestustustudio it's basically working towards the cause

This is Zohran Mamdani’s intern “This is all jihad, this is all ibadah” I’m sorry, but these are not normal moderate Muslim views She is a radical Islamist At the end she implies anything is justified for the cause (lying?) HT @thestustustudio

@yashdulla @ycombinator CRM

A few weeks ago the @ycombinator batch begged me to make a CRM crash course for founder-led sales. After multiple drink offers 🍻— I gave in. The session itself went semi-viral inside the batch, and people keep asking for the video. If you’re doing founder-led sales, the CRM might feel like this clunky behemoth system—it doesn’t have to. In the video I go over the absolute basics: → The only 3 CRM objects that REALLY matter (Deals, Contacts, Companies) → CRM best practices → Why logging every interaction isn't optional → How to set up/automate your CRM so it becomes your single source of truth (and sales doesn't hate using it) I wasn’t planning on releasing this outside the YC group, but given the response, happy to share it with others running early sales teams. If you want the video → just comment "CRM" and I’ll DM it to you. Thank you to Aaron Zelinger, @ghita__ha, @Pashpops, @JoshSabol, Thibault Henriet. @NityaArora14, @gunwoo__kim, @adinagoerres for making sure I got this out. This ended up being one of the highest ROI hours I’ve spent lately — founders really need better sales and CRM playbooks. If you’re in the trenches with founder-led sales and figuring this out, happy to help.

Being a global reserve currency has a lot of advantages, but comes at the cost of massive trade deficits. Such is the curse.

@petergyang Likely Conway's law in action en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27…

Why did Google bury its incredible image generation feature in a UX like this? To use it, I have to: 1. Somehow know to use AI Studio instead of regular Gemini 2. Somehow know to pick Gemini 2.0 Flash (image gen) model on the right 3. Somehow know that I can edit images directly using text prompts with this feature I don't get it.

I really hope this is wrong. But it's really hard to teach an old dog new tricks

@elonmusk Isn't the broader trend easier to explain since depegging the USD from gold in the 1970's?

Immediate action is needed to stop the de facto bankruptcy of America

@DanBilzerian Why is part of the Palestinian male national dress (worn by both Muslim and Christian Palestinians) offensive to anyone except that the issue is with Palestinians as a nation or ethnicity? Or is the message that Palestinians are all terrorists?

The Jewish Talmud says Jesus is in Hell boiling in a vat of human feces and that his mother, the Virgin Mary is a whore, I find that slightly more offensive

@Jason Couldn't finish listening. Felt less like a conversation and more of a mainstream media interrogation w/ constant interruptions & ppl talking over each other. I guess Mark came in expecting it so he was excessively defensive. Should have done more to make him feel relaxed/natural

Permission to be candid: what did you think of the last All In episode?

Is WordPress going through a founder mode moment?

People are embarrassingly bad at intuitively understanding exponential functions. Growth in the Founder Mode era from IPO to 2014 was +40,000%. Manager Mode era from 2014 till today is +800%. Try visualizing with log-scale instead.

@elonmusk Hmmm... The Third Reich article you say?🤔

Reich is such a sweety

@Maraai000 @MercifulMessage Sorry you're just wrong. From the full report: 83% of abusers from a proportional population of 75%. They're more likely than literally any other race proportional to the population!

White Brit: "Don't g-rapê our kids you f-ing brownies" Centre of Expertise on Child Sexual Abuse UK: "83% of child sexual offenders are white"

Never push to prod on a Friday

@Jason All that when it's raining. I wonder what they'd do if the weather forecast was actually sunny

Germans vs Greeks, as told by weather reporters

@DmytroKrasun Similar to how multiplication is repeated addition, division is repeated subtraction. 15÷3 means how many times can you subtract 3 from 15 until there's nothing left. 15÷0 means you will keep waiting forever since you keep subtracting 0.

My daughter asked today why it is impossible to divide by zero. The analogy with dividing apples for people doesn’t work anymore 😂 Do you know why, without googling?

The `xz` package backdoor is just the tip of the iceberg. There's a CONSTANT low-level stream of malware and spyware being uploaded to npm, PyPI, and Go registries. I want to share a few examples from the 20,000+ malicious packages we detected so far:
