Meta’s updates/outages that crash ad accounts remind me that me yelling at Claude to fix an update I asked for that broke some piece of my platforms that I asked for is a relatable issue

Baby carrots may be the most underrated product repositioning & upcycling of this generation.

Amazon's add to delivery functionality is incredible.
This would go HARD on shopify - Has anyone build a post purchase plugin that adds dynamic 'Add to Delivery" Functionality in lieu of add to cart once you've already made a purchase? #shopify

Your prods always look gangster. Short unsolicited feedback, Your flavor band (At top) gives some differentiation, but your product type/actual flavor is below the bottom shelf glide/hard to see until you're upclose.
Many C stores use taller glides - (I've had to repackage about 10 brands I worked on previously to address this) by more clearly screaming the flavor/product type around upper band or near the top - Also assume the store merchandising team is absolute ass, and your prods will be correctly faced like 10% of the time. 😄

[Tim Ferriss @tferriss]

Ninety-nine percent of people in the world are convinced they are incapable of achieving great things, so they aim for the mediocre.

The level of competition is thus fiercest for “realistic” goals, paradoxically making them the most time- and energy-consuming.

If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is, too.

Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think.

Unreasonable and unrealistic goals are easier to achieve for yet another reason.

Having an unusually large goal is an adrenaline infusion that provides the endurance to overcome the inevitable trials and tribulations that go along with any goal. Realistic goals, goals restricted to the average ambition level, are uninspiring and will only fuel you through the first or second problem, at which point you throw in the towel.

If the potential payoff is mediocre or average, so is your effort.

The fishing is best where the fewest go, and the collective insecurity of the world makes it easy for people to hit home runs while everyone else is aiming for base hits.

There is just less competition for bigger goals.

over deliver value, under deliver stress

New concept, instead of buying boring businesses. Just buy businesses with garbage customer service and do it better. Instant ROI.

How do you get better at explaining big concepts in basic terms? I always feel like I need to give context.

If you can start a business in Canada or the USA, which do you choose?

Sure, this is very simplified.

But I think it highlights my point - we should be having a conversation as a country on what we have to do in order to be more competitive.

We want MORE people building companies here. Not less.

That shouldn't be a controversial take.

Shark Tank but instead they go to trade shows and real time roast companies who didn't ask for feedback.

@celispj @judgeme have to say Judgeme bats way above its' weight. I'd gladly nuke 75% of my paid app base in exchange for keeping judgeme with its' price point.
