Anna Kendrick donated all the money she made from her directorial debut ‘WOMAN OF THE HOUR,’ which was acquired by Netflix for $11M, to RAINN and The National Center for Victims of Crime.

Oh, look! Another Founder with absolutely no knowledge of hiring or employment laws sharing advice on how to interview and hire.
I’ll just sit here and stay tuned for all the discrimination lawsuits coming their way 🤣
some of my notes from the Art of Hiring event earlier today:
@rabois
- don't hire anyone over the age of 30
- recruiters are probably ineffective but still important b/c they drive hiring momentum
- it takes 3-30 mins to evaluate someone (probably 3 though)
- undiscovered talent is mispriced. interns can be MVPs on teams
- people who positively manipulate the world around them are great hires
@bchesky
- goal is to have smallest team possible (i.e. be the Navy SEALs... not the Navy)
- be careful of B players. The old saying "A players hire A players B players hire C players" should go like "A players hire A players....and B players hire LOTS of C players b/c they are so bad"
- be in the details. so much so that people complain. and then be in even more details.
- when hiring someone, they are guilty until proven innocent. someone should be selling their case on why to join.
@eglyman
- looks for "aliens" and/or exceptional candidates with little competition
- ranks candidates "strong no, no, yes, strong yes". won't hire people who have all yeses.
- recommended to read great books on this like: Wooden on Leadership, Insanely Simple: The Obsession That Drives Apple's Success, High Output Management, and The Score Takes Care of Itself
@mike_sheb
- be a broken record. constantly repeat why you are here (mission, goals, etc.)
- sweat the small stuff
- ask candidates if they are in the phase of their lives where they can work like an olympian to help screen people out.
Me showing up to conferences to talk about bringing back humanity and empathy to the customer experience while every other speaker is talking about AI.
Durante tan solo 10 semanas, 20.000 hombres contactaron con Sweetie, una niña de 10 años generada por Inteligencia Artificial, para pedirle contenido sexual.
¿Cuántos "casos aislados" de hombres "anormales" tienen que darse para considerarlo normalidad?

Hey, @canva what's the 300% price increase? I've been using y'all for *everything,* for years! But tUS$500 per year is not it.
Y'all can take all the gen AI stuff you added back.
@seashellduvall I’m from Argentina. Apart from the English classics, we read: "Tales of love, madness and death” (Horacio Quiroga), "Chronicle of Death Foretold” (Gabriel Garcia Marquez), The House of Bernarda Alba (Lorca) and more magical realism!
Commentary: Can the Best of Star Wars Survive the Worst of Its Fans?
Before Star Wars can have another successful show, some vocal parts of fandom have to reckon with what they really want out of the franchise.

35 new victims of Andrew & Tristan Tate. THIRTY FIVE. Including minors. That's 50 women and children, all victims of sexual abuse by these men. Yet Tate remains REVERED by hundreds of thousands of young boys and men. Do not tell me misogyny isn't a HUGE danger to women and girls.
I’m rewatching Spartacus. Each episode is 1hr+ long, with 13 ep seasons.
Also (lots!) of hetero, bi, and gay sex and full frontal nudes for *everybody*.
This show would have been *gone* in an instant if they tried to make it today.
*Tip for women.
Most of us men really want to help but don’t know how.
Give us lists!
Give us list items weekly we can take off your plate & we love to help!
Guys, ask her what can I take off your plate today?
The key is solid communication around this.
We can’t READ MINDS.
