My Twitter account was hacked nine hours ago. I have deleted the tweets that were posted by the hackers. Please ignore any tweets about getting rich quick, which you may have seen in the last nine hours. They did not come for me.

"In all situations, it is my response that decides
whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated,
and a person humanized or de-humanized."

While in college reading the text books felt like work.

Now, at work, reading a text book feels like a small indulgence.

Can't wait till working my todo list feels like a party 😂

Since 1520, only about 85 institutions have remained continuously in existence.

Around 70 are universities – few things last longer or are more resilient than universities.

Best guide would be to be passionate about building a business that solves other people’s problems (real or imagined)

Always remember that if you love baking cup cakes starting a bakery will not ensure you bake cup cakes.

You may bake them to start, but if you are successful you will soon be too busy managing a bakery to bake.

Better guide is to find market mispricing between what you love and others find annoying.

Although that doesn’t sound as folksy and fun.

[Kam Lasater @seekayel]

The problem with “scratching your own itch” as a guide to what company to start:

@nprnewsnow There’s something wrong with your feed. It consistently cuts off after three or four minutes and it often cuts off in midsentence. I’m using Overcast.
