Being part of a startup is being part of a team, getting hands dirty, helping with things you never imagined doing. If this excites you, then startups are just the place 🙌If not, then not right for you or the team. We all need to find what’s right for us! https://t.co/CXFUOf08Gj
@fdestin Nope , sorry can’t do bureaucracy 😉Wish I could, might make me a better founder. My kids might argue I got all the other characteristics required.
Excited to announce that Behaviour Lab has been chosen to be part of @TechNation’s Fintech 4.0 cohort, being recognized as one of the UK’s leading scaleups! Learn more at https://t.co/7ODjJhvEoI and https://t.co/hCrZy2vNZp #WeAreTechNation#behaviouralscience#behaviourlab
Had my deodorant confiscated at the airport because, even though it’s a solid, “it turns into a liquid when it heats up”. Didn’t have the heart to tell the border security guy that that logic applies to every substance in the known universe 🤷🏼♀️
Great investment ideas are rare and getting rarer.
They don’t come to those who sit & wait for brokers to call or use the same old screening processes.
They demand learning, searching, changing!!
@fdestin When running people analytics at a world leading consultants it took months to get good coders. First week at Behaviour Lab we had 400+ applications with some true gems amongst them. Great people want something different and aren’t scared of challenges.
@fdestin Given the thousands and thousands of times we have been asked to change things in our deck, this just makes me want to cry 😫 And people ask why productivity is so low in the UK 😂🤣

@brianportnoy In short, the concept of winning as not-losing has been quietly central to many mathematical models and IT for 50 years; but nobody likes to admit it because folk instinctively detest this message.
@brianportnoy Their bot "Cepheus" plays cards well enough that our mind games/bluffs cease to be relevant. it isn't programmed to win; simply coded to minimise expectation of loss. It wins not through skill/genius; but because it cannot be reliably beaten.
@brianportnoy Nash theoretically "solved" solved game theory by proving minimax to be a sustainable equilibrium and a global maximum. Translating from Geek into English, he proved that the way to "win" any game is simply not to lose it.
