@DominiqueCAPaul @FrederikeLubeck Cute! Although, the views doing a PhD at sister school ETH Lausanne: Lake Geneva, the Alps, one Kengo Kuma, one SANAA. Sorry, @EPFL takes this one. 🇨🇭

Just read that Starbucks lost $30B after hiring a McKinsey consultant as CEO.
Guy spent his career advising founders how to build companies, but never built one himself.

17 months later, he’s gone.
They bring in the Taco Bell CEO…
and the market cap jumps $20B overnight.

Turns out running a company is harder than advising one.

One of my all-time favorite type of videos is pre-fame bands playing their extremely famous songs to a tiny room of people, because they're not yet known.

What's uniquely hard about running a startup is that you don't merely have to endure adversity, but have to solve intellectually difficult problems while doing so. It's like trying to find integrals while being chased by a lion.

No comprendo al recién graduado europeo de 24 añitos en burnout en 🇨🇭

-7k USD salario mensual
-Llega al trabajo en bicicleta (con la vista de la foto)
-entra 10AM
-se va max a las 5PM
-25 días de vacaciones al año (más otros 10 feriados)

Desfase total de la realidad 😆🤷🏽‍���️

1. I'm legit shocked by the design of @Meta's new notification informing us they want to use the content we post to train their AI models. It's intentionally designed to be highly awkward in order to minimise the number of users who will object to it. Let me break it down.

Someone please regulate 🇪🇺 regulators

[Dylan Field @zoink]

After an intense 15 months of review, today Adobe and Figma have decided to end our pending merger, as we no longer see a path toward regulatory approval of the deal.
