This made for an interesting read - I often find COVID statistics a bit misleading, especially when it has come to this later stage of the pandemic. Shifting towards an endemic strategy has certainly meant there are tradeoffs in store (along with some updated measurements) #BCSTT

[Businessweek @BW]

The Covid-19 pandemic has changed. The way the U.S. measures it needs to change too. https://t.co/898Q6jsnWZ

I'm sure Tesla needs to take a deep breath after all of the Elon news this week and a massive influx of new shareholders after his sale of shares... can't blame them #BCSTT

[Bloomberg @business]

Tesla needs more time to file a regular disclosure ahead of its annual shareholders’ meeting, pushing back a potential detailing of plans for issuing new shares and a possible stock split https://t.co/aL9MTrMcJu

I love seeing headlines like these. There is certainly a bright future for funds that are working for a better world in the age of CSR and environmental-awareness #BCSTT

[Businessweek @BW]

Passive funds with a do-good focus have become one of the hottest corners of finance https://t.co/EFi1mmsK29

@lillybrunacini With all of the culture talk that we've been doing in #BCSTT this makes complete sense to me. Glad to see we've been focusing on the right things with our class time with these speakers. I wonder where we are on the Gartner hype cycle in terms of society's focus on culture...

@BFalkenhayn I know the subscription style service has been reaching the limits of my patience ... it seems like everything from entertainment to food has to be paid for on a monthly subscription basis now #BCSTT

[Tom Lick @thomas_lick]

I imagine right about now is a tough time to be an employee at Netflix. We've talked in class about the importance of the employees that are able to withstand the tough times and how crucial that loyal culture is in the entrepreneurship space #BCSTT

Netflix's subscriber loss has destroyed employee morale https://t.co/2wbFdhtVPX

I don't think I've ever seen Coca-Cola stock evaluation and not thought about Warren Buffett. Happy to see some consumer behavior returning to pre-pandemic ways. Whether we're completely 'back' or not seems like it's up to individuals at this point though ... #BCSTT

[Bloomberg @business]

Coca-Cola’s first-quarter sales top Wall Street expectations as consumers return to much of their pre-pandemic behavior https://t.co/RpeG64zNLP

@andrew_choi12 I was surprised to see my iPhone 12 battery health at 85% already... pretty sure I've had it for a year and a half or so. Although I have always been impressed with its actual battery health, it can pretty easily go for 2 full school days without needing a charge #BCSTT

@soja_abby Not sure how I manage it, but my averages are sitting around 2.5 hours on my phone and 2.75 hours on my laptop for a total of around about 5 hours on those per day. Also funny to see the contrast between weekday/weekend usage on my phone/computer. Complete substitutes. #BCSTT #D

[Tom Lick @thomas_lick]

@andrew_choi12 I definitely love HBO MAX's options - I think they have great content and I often find myself watching something on HBO MAX more often than Netflix nowadays. However, I would argue that Netflix's rating system and 'for you' items seem more personalized #BCSTT

[Tom Lick @thomas_lick]

For the loss of loved ones, some of these tech-involved ideas seem like great mechanisms for coping. Much like many of the industries that we encounter... I wonder if the future of even events like funerals is in the online space or if in-person traditions will persist #BCSTT

Can't wait to see what comes of this and whether or not we will be seeing more updated tech coming to restaurants near us like Chipotle! Check it out. #BCSTT

We heard about this especially from some of our earliest guests, but I've always found it suspect when products are being marketed before they are ready. Maybe I just read too much on Elizabeth Holmes. What do you think? #BCSTT

[Inc. @Inc]

How and why to start marketing before your product is even ready. @hilzfuld https://t.co/MQ3Zoh7wwo

What an astounding immersion of tech! And here I was thinking that robots in hospitals would be decades away from fully operational... #BCSTT

[WIRED @WIRED]

Since two Moxi robots began operating in the halls of Mary Washington Hospital in February, they’ve given workers back approximately 600 hours of time. https://t.co/hhXCnDJlux

@christielee22 I find it odd how the internet can fall in love with personalities like Jason Derulo and bring them back to fame on an app that also has been the source of non-famous people gaining incredible wealth and popularity #BCSTT

@brian_wassersug I always love hearing the responses from our guests to this #BCSTT classic question - and it sounds like Elon has his mind set. Definitely an intriguing take on motivation and entrepreneurship. #D

[Tom Lick @thomas_lick]

Little bit of news on our @whoop rival @fitbit and the wearables market and the approval for A-Fib detecting algorithms within the devices - interested to see what the reaction will be from competitors that are also working on these passive emergency-detection features #BCSTT
