the moat is a founder with childhood trauma and a constant, debilitating fear of not achieving their potential.

I love saying “sounds good” at work when I don't give a fuck.

Start abandoning the corporate ladder as young as possible. You’ll feel like you exited the matrix when you do.

Foursquare was acquired last month. The outcome was disappointing. It's taken me a while to write this, but I think I'm finally done grieving it. Here are some thoughts on our final years, an effort to honor the team who helped build & maintain FSQ's legacy, and my attempt to finally get some closure. teendrama.substack.com/p/som…

Bad time to be a middle manager with no strong opinions or skills because you’ve lost touch with the craft. Running the meeting and keeping notes and attendance and the org chart is not a job anymore.

Another takeaway after three years of building a company is that the returns to just "being a good person", and not acting transactionally, are higher than I expected. There are so many transactional, boring, and at times immoral people in the tech industry that if you act with sustained warmth, authenticity, humor, and integrity, great gifts will be laid before you. White pill.
