6 - Arsenal in October 2025 are the first English top-flight team in history to play six games in a month and win them all without conceding a single goal. Philosophy.

Great read, listen to the podcast if you can :)

[David Senra @FoundersPodcast]

New episode: "How Elon Works"

This episode covers the insanely valuable company-building principles of Elon Musk

A few notes from the episode:

1. The mission comes first.

2. Retreat is not an option.

3. A maniacal sense of urgency is our operating principle.

4. Product design should be driven by engineers.

5. You should not separate engineering from product design.

6. Having separate design and production departments is bullshit. Keep everything together and feedback immediate.

7. The leader should be on the front lines. You should be a battlefield general.

8. "If they see the general out on the battlefield, the troops are going to be motivated. Wherever Napoleon was, that's where his armies would do best."

9. Apply The Algorithm constantly. (1) Question every requirement. (2) Delete any part of the process you can. (3) Simplify and optimize. (4) Accelerate cycle time. (5) Automate.

10. Repetition is persuasive. "I became a broken record on the algorithm. I think it's helpful to say it to an annoying degree."

11. You should go ultra-hardcore on deletion and simplification.

12. Camaraderie is dangerous. It makes it hard for people to challenge each other’s work. (Refer to point #1)

13. Never ask your troops to do something you wouldn’t do.

14. Hire for attitude. Skills can be taught. Attitude changes require a brain transplant.

15. Good attitude = A desire to work maniacally hard.

16. The only rules are the ones dictated by the laws of physics. Everything else is a recommendation.

17. Keep your entire company committed to a common goal.

18. If things aren’t going well, throw away the existing design, start from first principles, question every requirement based on fundamental physics.

19. Find the limit. You want to delete as much as possible and you can’t do that unless you find the limit.

20. If you aren’t adding back at least 10% of the things you deleted, then you didn’t delete enough.

21. Maintain control. Avoid joint ventures. Eliminate middlemen.

22. Have a relentless dedication to questioning every requirement.

23. No work about work, just work.

24. Go to the problem. Get on the plane. Fly to the source. Go to the exact location in the factory. Go to the problem and stay there until it's resolved.

25. The best part is no part.

26. Be wired for war.

27. Do not fear losing. It hurts the first 50 times but then you’ll be able to play with less emotion. You will take more risks.

28. Stay heads down focused on doing useful things for civilization.

29. When something is important and has to be done quickly, have meetings every 24 hours to run the algorithm and check on the previous days progress. You'll be shocked at how fast this speeds things up.

30. Life needs to be interesting and edgy.

31. Delete, delete, delete, delete.

There are 100 more ideas in the episode. I hope you listen to it. 30 years of Elon’s career + 60 hours of reading and research and me just absolutely ripping through idea after idea at 2x speed for 90 minutes.

It will be hard to find a better use of time.

if the issue is resolved?! It’s been two weeks of me following up and multiple dates provided for the technician to come and fix this on site, which they never do. Twice they have confirmed saying that they are expected on the same day and somehow disappeared.

@gomechanicindia need help, your escalation manager and workshop team have been giving me excuses for two weeks over a complaint regarding poor installation of the windshield. Escalation manager has no clue what is going on and is asking me if I have got a call from someone and

[Reuben Z @R_Zed]

@gomechanicindia need help, been trying to get an issue resolved for 2 weeks, between the escalation manager and the workshops people, they have been making empty promises for 2 weeks. My windshield was not installed properly & needs fixing urgently!

Becks made me fall in love with football & @ManUtd in 1996, which led me to play fantasy football and then create @Dream11.

Life came full circle - now we co-own a football team @SalfordCityFC along with @GNev2, Scholes, Giggs, etc.

If I'm 'Dream'ing, don't ever wake me up!

[Marc @BlackScarfMarc]

Whoever recorded this, is SPOT ON.

Don’t like it when The Arsenal win convincingly and give some back? Fuck you.

[STEM @stem_feed]

Is there a correct answer?

[Reuben Z @R_Zed]

@EaseMyTrip @DGCAIndia @AAI_Official @airindia Thanks for the email, however, just to re-clarify, the airline transferred my ticket from UK 988 and AI2988. Ergo, I had a valid reservation on AI2988 which was cancelled by the @HDFC_Bank #SmartBuy team. Therefore, the first part about Airline cancellation has no bearing here.👍

[Reuben Z @R_Zed]

Latest update is now @EaseMyTrip is using ‘smart words’ on email to get out of admitting that they and/or @HDFC_Bank have made arbitrarily cancelled my ticket without any reason. Absolute #fraud , extremely disappointing from you @EaseMyTrip

[Reuben Z @R_Zed]

Be careful when using #SmartBuy @HDFC_Bank for booking flights. They cancelled my air ticket themselves, then lied that the Airline cancelled the flight, despite getting in writing from @airindia that they did not cancel the flight, HDFC & the ticketing partner @EaseMyTrip are

[Reuben Z @R_Zed]

@DGCAIndia @AAI_Official or anyone else, please advise the right way to escalate this matter. The fraud and lies is getting a bit out of hand.
@airindia team please not that EMT is blaming my booking cancellation on you, maybe you can advise them against writing #fraud stories
