EAGLES BLOCK THE KICK AND JORDAN DAVIS SCORES A TOUCHDOWN BECAUSE WHY NOT

Fred Warner was asked what’s the difference between this year’s DC and last year’s DC now that Robert Saleh is back: “Saleh’s been around the block. He’s been there and done it at a high level for a long time. He knows football through and through. Not just defense, but offense, and I think that helps… He knows the exact calls to put us in, in certain situations within the game. It’s almost like he’s a fortune teller. This dude knows everything. It gives such confidence for a player to go out there and play free. I love having him back.” via: @957thegame

Ugh, the things you and Armon had to deal. You always handled it with such class. I always found it so frustrating when people bitched about our culture. I was like this is personally the best place I’ve ever worked and the founders actually give a shit about us. You all tired hard.

@innercitypress So smooth @KiDCuDi got out his car smoking a cig before walking in

OK - US v Sean Combs Day 9, six witnesses including Kid Cudi, on Molotov cocktail, cross by Brian Steel - Inner City Press is covering the case matthewrussellleeicp.substack.com/p/extra-in-sea… & civil cases v Diddy patreon.com/posts/diddy-do… book of Week 1 & will live tweet, thread below

Beautiful reminder:

@ChasingKia Live transcripts are the best things to read, at this point. Here is a page to follow from inside: @innercitypress

everyone, please follow journalists and legal experts who are accurately and professionally covering Diddy’s trial. not this.

I share this story with founders of enterprise software companies, it's one of my favorite sales experiences and I think highlights some of the important non-technical aspects of sales: I had just concluded a sales meeting with Very Large Company. This company had just publicly announced a huge commitment to Microsoft Azure. The year is 2015 or so, and Azure is still very much an up-and-comer, so as the meeting concludes I ask the executive that was present "I'm curious, why Azure?" (As someone selling cloud agnostic tooling, I don't care one way or the other, but I was curious) He says he'll show me on the way to the elevators. I consider that an odd answer to my question but go along with it. As we near the turn to the elevators, we reach a hallway "intersection", and he points the opposite direction and says: "you see this hallway?" It was a standard corporate office hallway with small private offices flanking both sides as far as the building went. He continues, "Every single person in this hallway is a Microsoft paid employee." And that's why they chose Azure. Because when something goes wrong, they don't have to submit a ticket or even call a phone number. They can literally knock on someone's door and get official, high tier support. That's how Microsoft closed the 9 or 10 figure deal (multi-year, can't remember exact) to get this large company to go 100% into their cloud. There's a lot of points to this story, but I think fundamentally the important thing is understanding the level of non-technical factors that lead to large enterprise deals.

Replayed Alex Fine’s statement over and over. That’s love.

WHOA. Yes- Microsoft laid off 6,000 people BUT... they dropped a pretty brutal new policy overhaul: -2-year rehire ban for anyone pushed out over performance -A new “good attrition” metric (yes, they track if they’re happy you’re gone) PLUS... you have 5 days to choose: – 16 weeks severance – or a performance plan with no severance if you fail Honestly this mirrors Amazon’s “unregretted attrition” model... and is kicking off a new era of ruthless performance management in Big Tech. Welcome to 2025.
