This is one of the most incredible software experiences I have ever had.
It’s amazing how small digital gestures (emoji reactions to a message, blue texts, etc) completely change your perception of how “real” the voice on the other end of the line is.
Impressed.
X has the best information on the internet and the worst incentives & culture.

my most sapir-whorf take is that everyone would be psychologically healthier if we referred to emotions like we say "it is raining" instead of "I am sad"
Prediction: In the AI age, taste will become even more important. When anyone can make anything, the big differentiator is what you choose to make.

@nikitabier I’m chief of staff over at @wearecollins . Seems we’re doing something right: we just won agency of the year for the 7th year in a row.
But we’re testing a new program for startups. 10x cheaper than our normal engagement and 5x faster. Happy to chat more [email protected]
Me and @MSchwaibold have been cooking something up with our friends at @wearecollins (@lutterman & @a_athanasiou).
This Thursday in Brooklyn: a night of talks and demos.

Young builders of the world: Really want to come to SF? But can't afford to come to SF? Please read on. I'm going to sponsor two of you to visit this summer.
I've been promoting San Francisco as THE place that those who wish to build the future should be. But I've got a couple sad replies from people saying it's financially out of reach. I get it. I could barely afford to come here in 2011—I bought my flights and initial accommodation with a €2k bank loan.
So to pay off my guilt for pumping SF, and to support those younger versions of me who can't even get a loan, I'm going to sponsor two young builders to come here for 90 days starting 1 June. They'll get:
- CHEAP return flights from your home and back
- CHEAP Bay Area accommodation
- A $50 daily stipend… you'll need to like cooking :)
- One meeting with an immigration attorney to advise on your options
- One meeting with me for a high five and a pep talk :)
This will be hard. It's NOT a holiday. It's definitely not meant to be. But you'll get an exposure to the greatest city for builders on earth and what you do from there will be up to you.
To apply:
- mail: [email protected]
- include your name, your age, your location, and ONE line on why you want to come here
- confirm that there's no way you could afford to come here by your own means
Please don't mail more than once. We may request a short interview. We'll choose people who we think can make the most of it + somewhat at random.
The deadline for applications is this Friday :)
To everyone not applying, I'd appreciate a retweet or otherwise a share of this message. I'll announce the winners next week and send some updates through the summer on how it all goes.
I don’t know enough about the guy’s ideas or actions to make a call.
But as far as speech-making, constructing slogans, preparing to rally people…
Undoubtedly among the best I’ve ever seen.
