This is what @SpaceX's Starbase, Louisiana spaceport will look like.

It looks absolutely incredible. Multiple launch pads, and one beautiful location.

I normally don't do these things but this guy is really special!

His name is Lito (@avioesemusicas) and he's famous in Brazil for making really fun airplane videos, I watch them all the time too

He explains how airplanes work in normal ELI5 language, and also explains airplane crashes etc, lots of people credit him for helping them stop being scared to fly as Lito showed how safe it is

If you ever read Hacker News, you know about prions, which they love to discuss, they're one of the scariest things you'll ever read about, as they can flip seemingly at random in your body and cause Creutzfeldt–Jakob, a terminal disease

I'm Dutch so we had a big outbreak of mad cow disease in the 1990s when I was a kid and I remember it well. You can get it from eating infected meat (but it's very rare), or prions can flip in your body randomly and cause it, or you can have surgery and one of the surgery tools can have it on them from previous patients

The issue with that from what I read is that it's close to impossible to wash off, and it won't die at extreme heats either, you just have to throw away all surgery tools (which you can't)

85% of Creutzfeldt–Jakob is a randomly flipping prion though, so that's most probably

Anyway, Lito here can participate in a promising trial by @Harvard @broadinstitute @ionispharma @mayoclinic but the next batch is only in October, so he's hoping the internet (like this tweet) can help him get in earlier, so he has a chance

And that trial hopefully helps us find a cure for this crazy disease

So if you can spread this, do so! This guy is really awesome, THANK YOU ❤️

[Startup Wisdom @StartupWisdom_]

Peter Thiel on how to ensure your startup survives:

"The best thing I did as a manager at PayPal was to make every person in the company responsible for doing just one thing. Every employee’s one thing was unique, and everyone knew I would evaluate him only on that one thing. I had started doing this just to simplify the task of managing people.

But then I noticed a deeper result: defining roles reduced conflict. Most fights inside a company happen when colleagues compete for the same responsibilities. Startups face an especially high risk of this since job roles are fluid at the early stages.

Eliminating competition makes it easier for everyone to build the kinds of long-term relationships that transcend mere professionalism. More than that, internal peace is what enables a startup to survive at all. "

Building fintech made me realize something:

Moving money is becoming a commodity.

The real competition will be over who owns the relationship with the user after the money arrives.

[Eduardo Marinho @MarinhoP2P]

Every fintech founder eventually discovers that there are two APIs:

The one in the documentation.

And the one you’re actually allowed to use in production.

And you’re nervous to send an email?

[Eduardo Marinho @MarinhoP2P]

One thing I underestimated when building a neobank:

The API is usually the easy part.

The hard part is getting 5 different companies, compliance teams, banks and card networks to agree that you’re allowed to use the API.

Fintech is 20% building and 80% unlocking the ability to build.
