@jaychenn17 Great insight Jay, especially because the concept of choosing your career path can be so overwhelming, breaking it down to the day-by-day is a great way to handle it. #BCSTT

Looking back on an enriching portfolio of entrepreneurs, I'd say one of my biggest takeaways from the semester is that you don't necessarily need the right college major or technical skills to pursue entrepreneurship, just grit and the right mindset! #BCSTT

Already looking forward to our talk with Francis Schwiep next week. With one of the most impressive educational foundations we've seen yet I'm curious to hear about her experience as a women in finance #BCSTT

@GambuzzaCharlie I think Tim Morse echoed this point today when he made the important argument that being a good business person starts with being a good person, and that being well-rounded and personable can be your most valuable asset #BCSTT

Entertaining to see RFK make cryptocurrency a focal point in his 2024 campaign, especially when this is the first election that it will play this big of a role. How much do you think he's invested in crypto? #BCSTT

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr @RobertKennedyJr]

The claim that FedNow is not the first step toward a CBDC would be more easily digestible were we not aware of the Biden administration’s steady barrage of hostile broadsides against cryptocurrencies.

Between 2008-22, the Fed partnered with a handful of big banks to print $10 trillion-ten centuries of wealth in 15 years — a bonanza for the Banksters.

Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin give the public an escape route from the splatter zone when this bubble invariably bursts. So the White House is colluding with the banksters to keep us all trapped in the bubble of profiteering and control.

In his Feb. 8 post on Pirate Wires, Nic Carter @nic_carter describes how the White House has organized bankers to participate in a sophisticated, widespread crackdown to destroy the crypto industry. Carter describes 15 incidents where President Biden has weaponized FDIC, OCC + DOJ to force crypto-friendly banks to close their doors to crypto firms since Dec. 3. The recent crackdown on crypto blocks exit ramps, removes alternative rails, and strengthens government control over both the financial and political systems.

We should be wary since CBDCs are the ultimate mechanisms for social surveillance and control. As Balaji Srinivasan @balajis says, “The distinction between FedNow and a CBDC is important from a technical standpoint, but not from a civil liberties standpoint.” Balaji compares FedNow to “a virus that has evolved to evade recognition by changing its sequence without really changing its function."

@LaurenZarek Thanks for sharing Laura! It's been hard for me to see how immersing ourselves in VR could possibly be productive and move society forward, but this seems like a great example! #BCSTT

Wanted to put a spotlight back on @mceeapp as they just launched in the App Store! #BCSTT

[Boston College Carroll School @BCCarrollSchool]

MCEE launched in the App Store last week. Co-founders Jack Russell ‘23, Rhett Somers ‘23, and Gianna Jarmain (MCAS ‘23) have been working on the music-sharing app since fall 2021 when the students participated in the Shea Center’s accelerator program.

@Jiaqi_Li_FJ This was my major takeaway from Jason's talk too! Especially because most founders are driven, type-A workers (just like most BC students), but relinquishing some control and trusting the work of others is so essential to scaling a business #BCSTT

[Maggie Sullivan @sulliatg]

Wanted to follow up on this after hearing from Jason Krantz last week about the potential for healthcare big data can be used in synthetic clinical trials. Interesting to see the give and take between big data as a strong force for good and an invasion of privacy #BCSTT

From one of my classes today: how are YOU being exploited in the big data economy? When social media platforms and search engines sell our behavior data to advertisers, haven't we given them the free labor of generating those data points? #BCSTT

[Maggie Sullivan @sulliatg]

@Yuuuie_88 Thanks for this Eric! It's so important to be aware that the congressmen and women making this decision may not only be out of touch with the TikTok app, but also with the implications for the Chinese economy #BCSTT

[Maggie Sullivan @sulliatg]

But there should be a different standard for those who have the disposable income to pay a subscription?! #BCSTT

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

It’s more about treating everyone equally. There shouldn’t be a different standard for celebrities imo.

As Q1 winds down, we see that tech stocks were some of the best performers, while also some of the most controversial with massive layoffs. Could this be evidence that downsizing is a necessary evil? #BCSTT https://t.co/FpiH9byJSj

[Maggie Sullivan @sulliatg]

Have to agree, and Meta/Zuck has been caught red handed for this in the past. #BCSTT

@aoi_n0 @_kellyyy_yu Kelly and Aoi, I agree Brene is an invaluable resource no matter your field. Her points on vulnerability are definitely some of her most impactful, not only for effective leadership but for any interpersonal connection #BCSTT

What a great time for Salesforce to be trending, so soon after our talk with Sydney Walker! #BCSTT

[Rajeev Chandrasekhar 🇮🇳 @RajeevRC_X]

The presence of Salesforce in India is expected to help in generating a large number of jobs & opportunities and be an important part of the #IndiaTechade story.

My address at the opening ceremony of @salesforce's new office in #Hyderabad.

[Maggie Sullivan @sulliatg]

@JohnFenlon18 Couldn't have said it better myself! Mike has been all over the map in terms of workplaces, but has pretty consistently held the CFO title for the past 8 years. Excited to hear how the same role at different companies can bring new or similar challenges #BCSTT

[Maggie Sullivan @sulliatg]

Gov. Baker and Mass politicians pledged to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, a very ambitious goal. This Mass-based startup out of MIT could be just the tool to make carbon capture less resource and energy-intensive. #BCSTT https://t.co/FmUTtbSVkr

[Maggie Sullivan @sulliatg]

Been reflecting on our talk with Sydney Walker from @salesforce , and how refreshing it was to hear about her tumultuous experience with breaking away from the typical career paths of a BC grad (IB, consulting, etc.), especially as I carve my own, less traditional path #BCSTT
