@neats29 I’ve always thought this should be a thing. Either as a reciprocal thing / mutual agreement, or as a paid service. I’d be well up for exchanging feedback like that

@paulcousins This is really cool man!

Interesting to think, with precise enough control over tape speed you could record a long single note and have it come out as a melody.

Imagine a midi keyboard rigged up to control tape speed, to play it as an instrument

@ProPaxMundi yeah, you're misinterpreting. people selected the most distant ring they still care about, the chart shows the average most distant ring

That dashed line is a single 600 watt solar panel per person.

Energy abundance is imminent.

Amazing graphical representation of a neural net, never seen anything like it.

A story that illuminates why abundance liberals are going to struggle with some progressive activists:

In March, I gave a talk on climate tech at a senior center - they loved it! In Q&A, a woman asked “how do we get people to do their part + dry their clothes on the line?” 1/7

@ellegist Thanks I’m sure I will!

[James @jahatched]

@ellegist I’m sold on this recommendation, just signed up. Cheers Elle!

[James @jahatched]

@chriskwheadon @dvassallo I can vouch for them being great, loads of good content and not salesy at all. I fully recommend it :-)

@haridigresses This is an awesome idea Hari.
“Solved problems” is a great way to describe HR/Finance/Legal, and trying to reinvent the wheel is a very common mistake (even for large global companies)

[James @jahatched]

@m_ashcroft So true.
This will probably change when one has lots of history built up of your specific requests, follow up questions, preferences, data etc. though?

[James @jahatched]

@JamesClear Congrats James!

Atomic Habits helped me stay on top of a lot of complex challenges in my career (HR & tech consulting)

So much so, that I reference it in advice to others on having a successful career in consulting (see the link pinned to my profile)

⬇️ Full Transcript with Slides below ⬇️

1/ On Sept 12, 2023, Benchmark’s Bill Gurley gave a presentation at the All-In Summit titled “2,851 Miles” where he discussed the past, present, and future of regulatory capture in Silicon Valley.

He received a standing ovation and his presentation was dubbed “an instant classic.”

Former PayPal COO David Sacks immediately called it “the best talk in the history of All-In” and said “we need to get it out there immediately so it can start going viral. And I think it will go very viral.”

First Round’s Chris Fralic thought it was “So good. A Perfect TEDTalk” and “it’s gold.”

Shopify Founder and CEO Tobi Lutke commented that everyone should “definitely watch [Bill’s] incredible talk… once it comes out.”

One audience member liked it so much he yelled at Bill to run for President as the applause died down.

I found the talk full of interesting anecdotes and wanted to be able to refer back to it easily, so I transcribed the talk and screengrabbed the slides.

Thought I might try something new and share it here.

@LBacaj This is awesome Louie, well done.
Your course was a big inspiration for me to finish my own equivalent content.

Small Bets will be even better with both @dvassallo and yourself on board!

@Tim_Burgess #TimsTicketGiveaway Cheers… London Troxy!

.@paulcousins congrats on the album launch mate, just ordered! 🥳

[James @jahatched]

@swardley Also this tends to spiral out of control at the worst times. The more at risk a project is, the more emphasis there is on pulling people into status tracking meetings vs focus on actually doing the work

[James @jahatched]

@ElodesNL @QiaochuYuan I’d definitely watch those!
Great piece on riven mate, you’ve convinced me to try it

[James @jahatched]

@neats29 @0xFoster Congrats Anita! Looks like a really cool product too, I’ll check it out. Best of luck
