@DeanPreston @AaronPeskin @jeffreytumlin @JackieFielder_ SF has this tactic, when they donāt like something and canāt vote it down, they add friction. Slow it down. Hire consultants. Move the goalposts. Each of these sounds sensible, but in totality, itās why our city doesnāt function. They do it to housing. Theyāre doing it here.

Introducing the Network State Podcast. The first episode features me and @VitalikButerin. We talk about starting new countries, upgrading Ethereum, and improving yourself!
No secrets here! Listen to our CEO Divyang Arora sit down with @erasmuselsner to chat about the future of digital food halls at Noshery on the Sand Hill Road podcast. youtube.com/watch?v=Mrijvcā¦
Check out our chat on Sand Hill Road with @erasmuselsner. š We cover the solo founder journeyāfrom building an initial MVP to recruiting a remote-first team, raising funding, and creating virality loops through consumer-forward product excellence. youtu.be/ZZ0KK-4w-FY
@erasmuselsner So true! āIf something happens, do we have some generalized, minimal process in place to be able to act on it?ā
Jeff is the reason I started the Indie Hackers podcast. More importantly, he was a good friend. We talked a lot in the past couple years, and to hear what he was going through was heartbreaking. I feel sad, and wish I had done more. RIP Jeff.
It is with terrible sadness that we inform the SED community that Jeff passed away on July 1, 2022. His family expresses deep gratitude to the SED community for supporting Jeff over the years and has kindly requested privacy during this difficult time. 1/2
Goldman Sachs has lost $4 billion on Marcus in the last 4 years (excluding acquisitions). Still no path to making money. Consumer fintech is hard.
On decision quality ā Constantly, relentlessly reassess the quality of your own past decisions as new data comes in. Wholly separate your self identity from the decision. If you do this right ā few do ā youāll gain the ability to assess the decision quality of others.

@software_daily Jeff had a brilliant mind, and a bigger heart than most people knew. Tens of thousands of longtime SED listeners will always remember him fondly.
@software_daily Incredibly sad news. Jeff did so much to educate the software community. You will be missed.
What do you get when you combine 250 of the sharpest people in tech and some of the best scenery in the great outdoors? An outstanding #Retreat2022 with the @contrarycapital community!
@KevinBenSmith @Jason @ArlanWasHere I thought this was actually pretty cool. I didnāt wanna listen to the whole episode and they didnāt add a time stamp for it. Seems like a good way to share snippets and can use it as a pod player. Didn't see a link back to the show website though like iTunes does.
@TheRideshareGuy @Jason @ArlanWasHere Cool, thx for the feedback :) So far, the link back to the creator is only available on the episode page, so it's one more click in between. I've added it to the todos for the next sprint to also add the link to the snippets page.
@Jason @ArlanWasHere In general, our goal is to build sth which is not just great for listeners, but also great for podcast creators. Any feedback on how we can/should improve our app for this is always very very welcome :)
