b2b saas seller: bro did you see the latest anthropic model?

[William Allen @Wiallen1228]

@BenyaminHolley "I lead sales and marketing here. But I'm really the Alex Jones of GTM"

[William Allen @Wiallen1228]

@TopherNOW I'm not trying to be facetious

Just ask your grok bot

[William Allen @Wiallen1228]

@bloodperfume And yes I know bps are a ratio screw off

[William Allen @Wiallen1228]

@bloodperfume Referring to $1.5M as "one hundred fifty million basis points"

[William Allen @Wiallen1228]

Ramp is two things:

1. getting cracked engineers from MIT to care about corporate expenses

2. running a relentless sweatshop that will build pipeline like rabid dogs

VCs and founders and growth guys will act like it's some sort of magic...

Who do I call at HR?!?

[William Allen @Wiallen1228]

@CoastalFuturist This same guy would flip if you made a mildly offensive joke

[William Allen @Wiallen1228]

@FidelCacheFlow You were a god if you could hit your number AND quickly get an exec the report they were looking for

Nobody’s ever read a book about a guy who read a book

Seeing a lot of Ineos Grenadiers around town.

They look sick.

But every time I checkout who's driving, it's some dude who looks like Jared from Silicon Valley

@justinplaygame Are you seeing many Linux-based designs come through HeyPCB yet? Curious how far people are taking these beyond the first prototype.

[William Allen @Wiallen1228]

Everything's moving so fast in the world of AI

Feels crazy seeing people with "Ex-AWS" in their LinkedIn bio

Might as well say "Ex-Standard Oil"

[William Allen @Wiallen1228]

@danielcberk I found a cheaper alternative

[William Allen @Wiallen1228]

@FlorinTatulea I agree but these are the arguments a sales rep makes before going: "and that's why you have to pay us $250k per year"

Btw I don't think Ramp staffed hundreds of data engineers on their internal gtm tech stack

Peridio's production-ready #Linux distribution, #AvocadoOS, is now available across Seco's portfolio of systems based on Qualcomm #Dragonwing platforms. @SECO_spa @Peridio #robotics #physicalAI https://t.co/ViO1gbScNr

@homegymcoop The only problem is people don't care about function.

Barely anyone in the NFL wears a guardian cap despite it reducing the risk of concussion/CTE becase... it looks lame.

I think we underweight how much of gym culture is really just "I picked up big thing that looks heavy"
