You need to enjoy a healthy dose of self-inflicted pain and discomfort as the scars reveal the path to winning in this sport. Yet triumph will ultimately reward you with such unparalleled rush of dopamine, that you will always return, ever-hungry for more. #entrepreneurship

[Eldar Sadikov @elversatile]

When people say #startups are hard, believe every word of it. To earn your spot in the startup hall of fame, you have to cultivate the work ethic of a pro athlete and embrace a border-line delusional determination to weather the daily curveballs.

ChatGPT is getting scary good. As someone who spent a bit of time working on machine learning, I always thought AGI wasn’t achievable within this decade. With enough training by the users themselves using ChatGPT, I think we can get there pretty quickly: https://t.co/KqjE6UJD1C

Great piece by an acquired founder reflecting on what Google needs to do to re-invent itself: https://t.co/1nN9xXzJhM The same would apply to most companies that are 10+ years post IPO.

@Chamberlain_Grp It’s been at least 4 hours. Having a status page for your service and communicating ETA for solving this type of issues is expected these days from all cloud applications!

Congrats @paraga! It’s humbling to know how far people from our lab have gone. Super thrilled for you and excited to see what you’ll do with @twitter in the new role!

I wrote in today's edition of The Batch about the new F-1 visa policy, and want to share that message here as well. #StudentBan

@jmj Nice! Happy 20-month anniversary!

My new blog post is about #money. I hope everyone will be able to relate and react to this one: https://t.co/MvKgvkbpg3

Great post by a friend of mine on #COVID’s trajectory, flaws of standard epidemiology models, and herd immunity required to win COVID: https://t.co/OtEhUQBa01

Today, on my birthday, I'm making a second post on my blog. This one is about the difficulties and merits of doing a #startup for the first time. I tried to interleave several personal stories and experiences starting Jetlore into this one. https://t.co/1S7fo94KbD

[Eldar Sadikov @elversatile]

I have recently decided to leave PayPal and I am committed to using the coming months to ensure a smooth transition. Coincidently, I decided to start a blog to talk about #startups, #money, #siliconvalley, and #acquisitions. Here is the inaugural post: https://t.co/IwiEUxLtLD

Eric Schmidt thinks we’ll need more office space not less after #COVID19 even in light of increased adoption of “work from home” policies: https://t.co/d9cWOdOajf

Somewhat old but still highly relevant post by Ben Horowitz on good vs bad product managers: https://t.co/rJh11daAKw

@pr0b I liked this summary more than the previous ones. It’s great to see some sort of a summary or key concepts.

My @MercedesBenz lease ended today and I returned the car. I’m quite disappointed with the experience: nobody inspected my car and I didn’t even get a statement proving that I returned it. @MercedesBenzFS I’d hope MB would want to provide a better last-mile experience!
