@anthilemoon @KingsIoPPN @EllieJane1980 @V_Giampietro Exciting, congrats!!!

@dbongino Wow, you are even more of a moron than I thought. You actually have the mind of a petulant child, incapable of rational thought.

@techreview 2/2 I'd love to read your latest piece about AI and innovation, but unfortunately your website is making that impossible. Can someone help? Thanks, Your Loyal Reader...

@techreview Tech Review, get it together! 1. I subscribed 2. You send me newsletters with stories to click. 3. I click on them, and it says "Subscribers Only." 4. I log in (I think) and can't find the story. 5. I try to subscribe AGAIN, and the form breaks and says "please try later." 1/2

I've been to 56 different @MBTA stations and earned the ranking "Jr. Resident". How many have you been to? https://t.co/Wws48GtUYG

@hollympeck I can't decide if my ennui is making me tired or vice versa.

Hello @LinkedInHelp, can someone please help me CANCEL LinkedIn Sales Navigator? I've spent 30 minutes trying to cancel this service that I don't want, and the fact that your CANCEL button is so hard to find seems to me to be bordering on #unethical at this point. #frustrated

[Bill O'Connor @OConnorAutodesk]

@paulpierce34 One of the best things I've ever seen...

[Bill O'Connor @OConnorAutodesk]

@pnts The whole "corporate storyteller" meme/trend peaked around 2014. I went to the Future of Storytelling conference in 2013 in NY. It was cool, but also a bit fluffy; today I think the best companies just "tell their story" naturally, and don't have to make a big deal out of it.

[Bill O'Connor @OConnorAutodesk]

@ctrlaltdylan I'm a big fan, great service.

[Bill O'Connor @OConnorAutodesk]

Can you tell me how to cancel Sales Navigator? Second time I'm asking, can you please respond? @LinkedIn @LinkedInHelp @LinkedInMktg @linkedinselling

[Bill O'Connor @OConnorAutodesk]

@linkedin

@LinkedInHelp
Hello, LinkedIn, I have been trying to cancel Sales Navigator for over an hour, and I see no way to do it, can someone please send me simple instructions for doing this? I love LinkedIn, but it's not cool to have to search so hard for the CANCEL button.

@RoamResearch This excellent article has tons of resonance with the Roam vision. This guy pursued a project to create a "universal bibliography" by connecting ideas free of their original context. Highly recommended: https://t.co/fXsPmuzTZR

@mustafasuleymn Wow, this kind of explains...well...everything...

[Daryna Kulya @darynakulya]

Many people are surprised to hear we don't have anyone in sales at @OpenPhoneApp besides me.

It's time to change that.

We're looking for our first sales hire and it's an amazing role for the right person. 🧵

Twitter, do your magic 🪄

#TIStartups @Jessicalessin having a fascinating conversation with the @substack founders. It's exciting to hear a team like this openly aspiring to improve on the online/social media world that Facebook and Twitter have created.

[Bill O'Connor @OConnorAutodesk]

#TIStartups Some good stuff from Marissa Meyer: -
- Your business model should help made the product better, like the ads at Google made search better.
- Who wins in AI, US or China, has big ramifications way beyond AI.
- SF culture is mostly the same/most people aren't leaving.
