Apologies

A moment for the catch 🔥

Las Vegas just ranked as the happiest travel destination in the country, beating Maui, New York, Chicago, and Miami.

Researchers said Vegas is "engineered for peak moments." 40 million visitors quietly replied "duh."

Reno didn't even make the cut.

I return to this space today to pay tribute to my sweet, beloved Tatiana, who left this earth today. I return to this space to pay tribute and honor her loving and supportive family, who came together and did everything they possibly could do to help her. I return to this space heartbroken because Tatiana loved life. She loved her life, and she fought like hell to try to save it.

I cannot make sense of this. I cannot make any sense of it at all. None. Zero.

Tatiana was a great journalist, and she used her words to educate others about the earth and how to save it. She created a beautiful life with her extraordinary husband George, and children Eddie and Josie. She fought like a warrior. She was valiant, strong, courageous.

My heart has always been with my cousin Caroline ever since we were little kids. My entire being is with her now. What a rock she has been. What a source of love she has been with Ed, Rose, Rory, Jack, George, Eddie, Josie, and all of Tatiana’s cousins and friends and the amazing doctors who tried so hard.

A few weeks ago, Tatiana wrote so beautifully about her diagnosis and her battle with this horrendous disease. If you haven’t read her words, please honor her by doing so (the article is linked below). Her piece is extraordinary. Whatever your faith, please pray for Tatiana and her grieving family. Tatiana was the light, the humor, the joy. She was smart, wicked smart, as they say, and sassy. She was fun, funny loving, caring, a perfect daughter, sister, mother, cousin, niece, friend, all of it…

Those of us left behind will make sure Eddie and Josie know what a beautiful, courageous spirit their mother was and will always be. She takes after her extraordinary mother, Caroline. May we all hold Tatiana’s family in our collective embrace not just today, but in the days ahead, and may each of you who read this know how lucky you are to be alive right now. Please pause and honor your life. It truly is such a gift. ♥️

This is Spa Day Steve. Discovered the secret to ultimate zen: professional head tilts and warm rinses. Most dogs plot escape during baths. Steve requests encore. Living his best fluffy life.

This is Bryan. Once a week, he takes a shelter pup on a New York City adventure in his ‘Adopt Me’ backpack, hoping someone will fall in love. He films their big day out, and almost every dog he’s featured has found a forever home. Please leave him a heart ❤️ for helping good dogs find their humans.

Episode #94: Samsara’s 10-Year Journey to $26 Billion Public Company

Sanjit Biswas is the Co-founder and CEO of @Samsara, the platform digitizing physical transportation and safety operations.

We unpack building Samsara from zero to run rating revenue at over $1.6 billion and a $26 billion public company in ten years.

We get into how AI is impacting the physical world, how Samsara uses AI internally, and how their products prevent over 200,000 deaths per year.

Sanjit has built two unicorns, and he shares everything he’s learned along the way, including what most founders and investors get wrong about hardware, thinking customer-first instead of product-first, how to know when you have product market fit, mastering sales as a technical founder, and how to spend more time with your customers.

We also talk about getting his high school online in the 90’s, and the research project that turned into Sanjit’s first company, Meraki, and its $1.2 billion dollar sale to Cisco in 2012.

Thanks @boltdotnew for supporting this episode (check out their Hackathon with $1m in prizes!)
