Before you condemn him, let me explain the actual biology and thermodynamics behind what he is doing. He is actually utilizing a highly effective, unorthodox method of tuber preservation. There are three major reasons: anaerobic vacuum, thermal regulation, and pathogenic bioshield. I will explain them in detail below.
Yams and tubers generally get spoiled primarily due to oxidation and aerobic bacteria. The bottom of a stagnant gutter creates a perfect anaerobic (oxygen-free) environment. By burying the yam in the bottom of the gutter, he is halting the enzymatic breakdown that causes the tuber to rot. 1/2
A Pewbeam customer in the US reached out last Friday morning wanting to cancel their yearly plan.
It was sad to read their email, but the beautiful thing was that they carefully explained why: we lacked some features they needed for their setup. I didn’t let my CS team handle this; I reached out and promised that three of their feature requests (that we agree with) would be shipped this weekend.
We stayed awake until 3 a.m. this morning to ship those three features, and this customer is happy with their plan again and has changed their mind about canceling.
We do customer support differently. Even though it is difficult, we ensure we attend to our customers’ specific needs because they have an audience to serve and we have a responsibility to help them do it.
These, among many, are some of the lessons I am learning about building a startup.

The film follows a scuba diver who gets swallowed by a sperm whale and only has 60 minutes to escape.
🇹🇷 "They get their money paid clean. No tax responsibility. The club pays their tax."
Mohamed Salah's lucrative move to Trabzonspor is further evidence that Turkey is a viable destination for players and representatives assessing the market.
With the Saudi Pro League now struggling, the Super Lig's financial benefits are an attractive asset in its favour.

Also, education and intelligence aren’t the same thing. There are thoughtful people who never had much access to school, and there are highly educated people who confidently spread nonsense 😂
