@m2jr You’re right; having a Dad who believes in you is a feature not a bug. I just lost my kindhearted, brilliant, father who encouraged me to dream big because he knew I could. The roles of Jobs & Musk are filled so I’ll channel my Dad & keep pushing me to go bigger.
@lennysan@jiaonazhang This was a HUGE unlock for me. The day I listed to the pod I was almost paralyzed trying to figure out how to most effectively drive the business forward….so I took a walk with the pod playing. I literally remember where I was when JZ said “write”! I thought…that’s it!
@SquarespaceHelp I would if there were a way to get to "cookies" on a subtopic banner...I've literally tried all topics and none of them lead where I need them to. I found user boards on the cookie issue - it's a thing!
A great conversation with one of the greatest founders of the last 2 decades… Daniel Ek (@eldsjal) of Spotify. So many lessons of breakthrough startups in a single episode.
Thanks, Daniel!

Enjoy!
@m2jr@eldsjal As an "unreasonable" woman I thank you both for the inspiration and confirmation; the road may be lonely but it's the only one that is my truth.
@mattmuns So appreciate your candor, vulnerability and sincere desire to help others.
Your sentence about never being able to have the relationship you wanted with your dad was so sad and I’m curious if perhaps he wanted to connect with you in a more meaningful way and didn’t know how
Is anyone @FIDCgov or @POTUS listening to @BillAckman ? SVB is not a 1% thing it's an "all of us" thing. It's moms, dads, he, she, theys from everywhere who had a solution & built a business. In 2020 that was 4.4MM new co's & they have employees to pay. #SVBcollapse
What should the FDIC do? @FDICgov to guarantee all bank deposits by Sunday night before Asia open and call a time out. Run a process to recapitalize @SVB_Financial while managing liquidation of UST and MBS portfolios to be reinvested in short term UST. Determine the capital hole and raise a ‘fortress’ amount of capital from investors co-led by @generalatlantic@sequoia etc. and smart financial investors to recap bank. Need a balance between sophisticated VCs and risk-adverse financial investors. Replace senior management and board. Equity holders pre-recap are wiped out, bond holders are protected. @FDICgov to receive penny warrants on recapped bank as compensation for its backstop guarantee. FDIC develops a new guarantee regime where large dollar deposit insurance is made available up to sensible limits per account to accommodate business borrowers while 100% guarantee remains in place. Once new deposit insurance regime is employed, 100% guarantee is removed.
@NYSTaxDept@NYSTaxDept@NYGov Help! OS and browsers all updated and still cannot access biz tax info. Cannot reach via phone - cannot access filing info...cannot even email to discuss 2022 tax filing. Please advise best next steps...and thank you!
Devastated. The ONLY app I truly trusted and checked multiple times per day is gone. @Apple please replace the pretty with the ease and functionality of https://t.co/gSubNnVBwB #ripdarksky#weatherapp#appleweathercouldbebetter
@MESlayter @tommangan@realBrookNash Middle class used to be defined as a family w/two kids being able to live in a house on one salary. My dad made $20K in 1970 in Boston - that’s = to about $160k today so…$170 not far off
@tkawaja Perhaps they should go tiny coffin shopping with the parents in TX & try to explain they have loftier more philosophical goals than protecting lives
