@anuroopk4u @pmarca Since the 1970s, many people who wanted housing to be more affordable supported rules that made it harder to build. The result was less housing, more scarcity, and higher prices. We made housing unaffordable in the name of affordability.

@philippenyssen @hargup13 @Yuchenj_UW We’ve improved it a lot. Tell me about your most recent experience so we can further improve it.

@ImJoshIsrael @Yuchenj_UW Our stock went up 5x in 2020 before our IPO. I’m not satisfied with what’s happened since, but this game isn’t over.

@Yuchenj_UW Google’s biggest strength is also its biggest risk. The sprawl buys diversification and a compounding ecosystem, but the cost is focus, execution, and product coherence.

@hargup13 @Yuchenj_UW They might. But I wouldn’t automatically assume doing so. Their advantage is their diversification and the ecosystem of compounding advantages, but this at the sacrifice of focus - so it comes down to execution and game theory

@johncrickett @staysaasy Have you never met someone who worked in a large corporation?

[Brian Chesky @bchesky]

@mikert89 @danywander Yes. But I told our team that we will disrupt ourselves before somebody else does
