there are two critical functions in sales ...

- get them into "imagine" mode
- project manage their buying process like a psychopath

Just bought my coworker a 'Get Better Soon' card.

She isn’t sick, I just think she could do better.

Of course that's your contention. You're a first-time SaaS bear. You just got finished listening to some podcast, Dario on Dwarkesh, probably. Now you think it’s the end of white collar work and seat-based pricing is screwed. You're gonna be convinced of that til tomorrow when you get to “Something Big is Happening”. Then you’ll install ClawdBot on a Mac Mini, vibe code a dashboard on top of a postgres database and say we’re all just a couple ralph loops away from building a Salesforce competitor. That’s gonna last until next week when you discover context graphs, and then you're gonna be talking about how the systems of record will be disintermediated by an agentic layer and reposting OAI marketing graphics.

“Well, as a matter of fact, I won't, because ultimately the application layer is just ….”

The application layer is just business logic on top a CRUD database. You got that from Satya’s appearance on the BG2 pod, December 2024, right? Yeah, I saw that too. Were you gonna plagiarize the whole thing for us? Do you have any thoughts of your own on this matter? Or...is that your thing? You get into the replies of anyone posting a SaaS ticker. You watch some podcast and then pawn it off as your own idea just to impress some VCs and embarrass some anon who’s long SaaS? See the sad thing about a guy like you is in a couple years you're gonna start doing some thinking on your own and you're gonna come up with the fact that there are two certainties in life. One: don't do that. And two: you dropped thirty grand on Mac Minis and LLM API calls to come to the same conclusion you could’ve got for free by following a handful of VC accounts.

Well that's awkward 😂

Savor the little victories as much as you criticize the little mistakes.

If I hit this dictation button after sending a text and it beeps and stops my music one more time,

I’m gonna find everyone at apple and put them in a rear naked choke hold

Even if I turn off dictation I somehow hit the voice note thing

The send button should not have multiple functions in the same spot

Accidentally said "hard" instead of "non-trivial" and they kicked me out of SF

Kind of a personal failure if you ever run out of toothpaste. Let’s be honest, there’s always a little more in there if you’re sufficiently motivated. You never really “run out.”

[Kenneth Cassel @KennethCassel]

did a take on prisoner’s dilemma with our oldest two kids

Cooperate - get $1 each
Betray - gets $3
Both betray - $0 each

daughter betrayed and then gave $1 of the $3 she won to her brother

Always so humiliating when the thing you've been procrastinating for 3 months only takes you 30 minutes
