@heimdal_ @st_nomad Black Sabbath was way ahead of their time

@_EricHu RIP 🖤

@KenTheRogers Move over GNU, a new recursive acronym has landed: “SaaS as a Service”

[croix @croix]

@immad Congrats on the launch! Please add an EOR feature (incl. visa sponsorship) to your roadmap. I'd much rather use Mercury than incumbents :)

@arcinternet I would have paid for Arc. It’s the best browser I’ve ever used. I’m never going to switch to Dia, especially because there’s no mobile app and I used synced tabs all the time. Such a fumble.

@raihan_ I hope you’re just listening to this on repeat https://t.co/hIOzMTL4DH

@raihan_ Ghostly International made headphones?!?

@bpodgursky I’ll be scared once they all start creating their own hedge funds. If they had ASI, wouldn’t they be running circles around rentech already?

[croix @croix]

@ybouane @mrdoob But what about the shareholder value?

@johnloeber This is literally my job. hmu

@sterespect reinventing the creative director from first principles

@NotionHQ You guys are killing it. I love the “factories” paradigm @nbaschez
articulated and hope something like this is on the roadmap. Specifically, I would love it to be proactive, multiplayer, self-improving, and able to communicate natively via Apple Messages.

@jstn I remember hearing Da Funk at an urban outfitters on Capitol Hill in Seattle as a teenager and it blew my mind. I used my allowance to buy the single and played it on repeat for a good two years. 😂

@pifafu Magic moments for me: pasting links directly onto text (maybe Slack was first?); slash commands to quickly create any block I wanted; using Notion AI to query and/or use Notion docs and databases natively, so I didn’t have to copy/paste into ChatGPT…

@geoffreylitt NHK World is the antidote. It’s so satisfyingly boring. Document 72 Hours is a personal favorite.

@asubparusername You can’t buy taste

@nickcamsmith @whatdotcd I love my OD-11s. Weird app interface, but sounds amazing and little kids can’t knock them over.

@scottbelsky speed is often seen as the only advantage startups have. I’d argue intuition is the second, for those who will embrace it (whether by choice or out of necessity because they don’t have access to quality data at an early stage).

[croix @croix]

@scottbelsky 100% agree. too bad we’ve convinced ourselves “data” is superior. getting teams, clients, whomever to trust intuition as a guide is incredibly challenging today.
