A lot of the challenges around legislating homelessness are caused by the word “camping”. If we started to use “homesteading” I think it is much more clear when certain behavior is over a line. Sleeping outside on a blanket: ok Building / establishing on public land: not

A one-semester Contracts class should be a graduation requirement for any bachelors degree. Have thought this for awhile.

Someone should write an academic paper on succeeding in SaaS: "Retention Is All You Need"
It’s because starting in the late 90s cars starting becoming really good - motors that will last to 300k miles, interiors that are modern enough to stay safe and relevant for a long time. There’s much less NEED to upgrade than prior periods

This thread is an interesting take. I don’t disagree, but I think we’re also at a point ~20 years in to the industrialized venture and private equity experiment that early stage remains hard to do over more than a couple funds (ie, sustained power law returns)

So many twelve dollars. Luckily they aren’t dreams, just fun ideas.
Unpopular opinion: The American credit scoring system is one of the under-appreciated marvels of the modern world. It enables trust among strangers at scale, and therefore reduces costs & increases commerce, to everyone’s benefit (even those w low scores).
There was a weird glitch yesterday where I was concerned I was going to finally have to update the app, but no! We’re still good! (Bird logo and article headlines in thumbnails!)
It’s weird to me that the term “echoboomer” never stuck and instead we go “millennial”. Looking at this chart the echo is so vibrantly clear and I think a lot of “millenials-this” analysis could more easily be explained with the echo context.

Had an electric kettle for 15ish years before finally installing an instant hot unit/ faucet 2 years ago which we use many times per day. Now do toaster ovens (ugh, air fryers, I guess?) vs regular toasters.

Jokes aside, I’ve made profitable trades on things like Crocs and Lululemon simply from the consumer vibes (both long and short). Current vibe is all the Mitsubishi heat pumps I see being installed….
Crazy news from Techstars. This article from the guy who built the Seattle practice (@crashdev) is fantastic (And I’m incredibly impressed how well written this article is within 24 hours of announcement… !)
If you’re an early stage company, keep things simple. Any additional complexity is an opportunity for an investor to so “no”. Current edition: keep your fiscal year on the calendar year until there’s a real reason! Explaining “fiscal 25 vs fiscal 24” when you have $1M ARR 🤷♂️
