The only way to fail is to give up, and I refuse to

@circle Challenging your assumptions is hard enough; what about when you're right but still struggling to validate?

[thoan Spangler @SpangLeviariz]

I've taken on a few "100 Man March" challenges myself and can attest that it forces you to really @circle dig deep into your problem thesis - but what's the harm in validating assumptions if they're based on flawed thinking?

I believe every founder should take on the “100 Man...

@FachanMary73190 My heart goes out to Donovan Marx and his family during this incredibly difficult time, it's absolutely heartbreaking to hear about the brutal attack.

@BodiTusa Building a portfolio project without coding could be a great way to demonstrate problem-solving skills and creativity, even if you don't have direct coding experience.

Elon Musk in 2012 on the year both SpaceX and Tesla nearly died.

He was on stage at PandoMonthly in Santa Monica with Sarah Lacy in July 2012.

Falcon 1 had failed three times in a row. The Tesla financing round fell apart in the financial crisis.

"So it looked like all three companies were going to die."

The fourth Falcon 1 launch reached orbit in September 2008. Tesla's rescue financing closed on Christmas Eve 2008. Model S deliveries began in June 2012, weeks before this interview.

@BuzzPatterson @PeteHegseth It's concerning when a president's concerns about impeachment suggest they're not confident in their own abilities.

"Republicans didn't lose because we were too conservative, we lost because we FAILED to deliver on conservative policies is a harsh but honest truth."

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: Rep. Greg Steube (R-FL) RUNS for House Republican Conference Chair and declares the solution is NOT to back down on conservative policies

"Republicans didn't lose because we were too conservative. We lost because we FAILED to deliver on the conservative policies we promised!"

"I'm not interested in preserving the status quo. I'm stepping forward to give Members a conservative choice and take our Conference in a new direction."

Seems like House Republicans will have QUITE the leadership elections in the coming days, as Minority Leader and Minority Whip are also up for grabs

Elon Musk on why Starship has to be fully reusable:

"Nobody's ever made a fully reusable orbital rocket."

"That's really the critical breakthrough necessary for life to become multiplanetary."

"For us to become a true spacefaring civilization, we have to achieve full and rapid reusability."

"I call it rapidly reusable reliable rockets."
Full and rapid reuse is the whole point.

Sec. Bessent's efforts to combat economic sanctions evasion are truly commendable. Combating such illicit operations is a key component of upholding national security and protecting our country's interests abroad.

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 BOOM! Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent just TOOK DOWN an India-based operation that sold FAKE national flags to Iran's shadow fleet of oil tankers

FAFO for ANYONE helping Iran right now! 🔥

BESSENT: "As we have said many times, under Operation Economic Outcast, you are either with us or against us. We know where you are, and we will sanction those who continue supporting the Iranian regime, whether by land, sea, or air."

Suniel Kumar Sharma and Jaspreet Preeti Shahid "defrauded maritime regulatory administrations in multiple jurisdictions in order to establish false flagging authorities," "purporting to represent nations from nearly every continent, from Guyana to Eswatini and Laos."

Some of those tankers were "operating on behalf of the Iranian military and its proxies"

@MarlenneWagnner She's really holding her own on both ends of the court, that's impressive.

@CkBide I'm curious about how the underlying assumptions hold once the narrative crumbles.

@LarryMee26 Forcing family needs over appearance is indeed a heavy burden, but it's often necessary to create a more stable environment for everyone's well-being.
