Sitting down at the premiere of #SILO! On May 5th, the truth will surface... #AppleTVPlus
The SILO saga just cracked the top 100 on all of Amazon! Crazy sale going on today: $1.99 for all three books and the new short stories. Insane deal. :) amzn.to/3SR5c9p
In about 9 hours we'll be announcing 18 months worth of work to some 50,000+ people (and hopefully many multiples of that through everyone sharing it). Typical day. 🙃
Got to see some top secret plans for @StartupMtn Conf today. Super pumped for this.
It's our party and we'll cry if we want to. Just kidding, no tears over here as Teknovation turns 10 years old! Thanks for supporting us this past decade. Should we go for 10 more? Powered by @pyacpa. teknovation.biz/its-our-birthd…
Quick observation about students: 99% are totally focused on majors, GPAs, & internships. 1% are focused on creating real world experience. If you're a student right now: - Create content - Build something in public - Freelance Real experience > classroom experience.
@levelsio (here's why your brain loves this tweet)
Networking 101: In a crowd, find someone newer than you, who has had fewer opportunities, who looks uncomfortable Greet them, help them, introduce them It’s not about finding a mentor— be a mentor. Have you met Gen Z? They’re gonna be your boss’s boss soon. Be good to them.
Child care is crucial for working parents to be productive at work and maintain economic stability at home. Tennessee families deserve high-quality, affordable child care. Support @JoinTQEE, and get loud for little kids! #LoudVoicesTN
I wish I had a regular small group of emerging/pre-seed/seed fund managers that I could meet with on a regular cadence to help us all sharpen our craft.
1. “Build for yourself.” I built for people who needed a product and would pay for it. Building for yourself can be good but you may end up building for a saturated market with high competition. Many communities don’t have a lot of coders and your skills could help them.
@RyannosaurusRex So glad you are back here, you make our community better! @myfoundersforge
We really enjoyed ourselves at the Home Builders Association of Tennessee's summer meeting in Gulf Shores Alabama this week and it was good to see familiar faces as well as new ones. It was a great time and we're also excited to start working with everyone!
