@t_blom @TheErikDahl @ycombinator @mattjackrob @GoCardless Had to do it whilst I still could! 😅

A very worthy cause!

Very sad news that Steve O’hear passed away.

After my spinal cord injury, Steve was the first journalist I spoke to. As I re-read that interview, he called me a “relative newbie” to being disabled.

I think that sums him up. Steve had a real knack for needling you whilst also making you smile. He was not only a great journalist but also a great friend. I know so many of our community will miss him dearly.

Rest In Peace Steve. I’ll miss you buddy.

Great post! Totally agree with this

Stanford and Berkeley students start companies at 5x the rate of Oxford and Cambridge.

Why the smartest, most technical people in the UK should take more risk 🚀

Exciting new development by the @incident_io team. Love seeing their pace of development!

[Pete Hamilton @peterejhamilton]

We’ve just launched @incident_io On-call and I couldn’t be more excited! 🎉

Our goal was “so good, you’ll break things on purpose” and we’ve poured our hearts and souls into this one.

I think it shows ❤️

Great @ycombinator video by @mwseibel & @daltonc about one of the mistakes we made a lot of in the early days @gocardless. Focus your innovation on what matters to your customer, don’t spread it around!

The govt deserves a lot of kudos for this. We narrowly averted disaster for many tech start ups that will hopefully one day power our economy. Given the circumstances this is the best possible outcome. Many founders are feeling very relieved this morning. Now back to building!

[Sir Jeremy Hunt MP @Jeremy_Hunt]

This morning, the Government and the Bank of England facilitated a private sale of Silicon Valley Bank UK to HSBC

Deposits will be protected, with no taxpayer support

I said yesterday that we would look after our tech sector, and we have worked urgently to deliver that promise

[Hiroki Takeuchi @hirokitakeuchi]

Great to see @incident_io launch on @ProductHunt - congrats team!

[Stephen Whitworth @sjwhitworth]

Big day for @incident_io: we're live on @ProductHunt! With an exclusive discount, and everything.

This is a great articulation of my personal rule #1 to leadership

[Dan Rose @DanRose999]

When I first started out in my career, I thought I had to “fake it until you make it.” Later I learned to ask questions and embrace situations where I didn’t have all the answers. Here's how I went from being an insecure manager to a more honest leader:

@t_blom What is bughouse??

[Hiroki Takeuchi @hirokitakeuchi]

@amyrlewin @GoCardless @roxannevarza @joinstationf @LubomilaJ Looking forward to it!

@eileentso @GoCardless @nordigen Thanks! The journey continues!

Also particularly excited to be accelerating free access to open banking data services to the market. This will help more businesses to experiment and find new use cases for open banking as this technology develops over the coming years.

Having survived two previous market resets (2001, 2009), people frequently ask me how this 2022 market reset is different and how it is the same. The obvious similarity is that valuation multiples have collapsed. We went from a "glass very full" mindset to one with many concerns.
