Reminder that Avagadro Corp by @hertling should be required reading at this point...it was a decade ahead of it's time (as with so much great sci-fi)
Meanwhile, in the world of "AI beyond mere toys", @digits continues to innovate for the massive market of small business finance.
Huge news at @digits today!
We're launching the next chapter of our product, because our team has created something truly magical.
Everyone's saying the future of finance and accounting is AI… Well, you need to see this:
Just learned that the @globedirect junk mail scourge from the @BostonGlobe is finally dying this year. Even in these strange times, miracles can still happen!

Was so excited to see Carpenter's iconic THE THING in theaters for 40th anniversary. But @fathomevents apparently forgot to push the upload button. The whole showing was cancelled. WTF guys? What's the plan to make this right, and why would we ever trust a Fathom event again?

Furthermore, @AMCTheatres (who is going to point fingers at Fathom), you guys are a clown show. 1) You sold me tickets, it's your responsibility to get the movie there by showtime, 2) An $18 refund doesn't come close to rebuilding my trust. What a joke.

Been amazing to see this team navigate the wild west of the crypto space over the past few years. Gunslingers extraordinaire...
1/ A bit of news: @flipsidecrypto has raised $50M. Yeah, we’re excited (and humbled 🙏).
All the deets in this Gitbook: flipside-crypto.gitbook.io/f…
Thanks for leading @_rcapital_ with @trueventures; @GalaxyDigitalHQ; @terra_money; @dapperlabs; @M13Company; @arjunsethi; plus…

Glad to see this @focusmate model getting attention (but not a mention!?) from @DeborahGRiegel and @HarvardBiz hbr.org/2022/01/feeling-dise…
A seasoned team tackling a massive market at a time when SMBs need it most. Humbled and pumped to be an angel investor watching @Wayne and @jeffseibert work their magic.
Today, we’re proud to announce the launch of Digits Reports and Digits Reports Builder, along with a $65M Series C led by @SoftBank with participation from @HarryStebbings, @benchmark and @GVteam.

@potterybarn 6 months for a couch. You call 8am day of delivery: it was never loaded on a truck and it'll be another MONTH? That's not covid, that's incompetence, we (literally) rearranged our schedules and home to accommodate this long awaited delivery. What a sham.

By contrast, @Overstock has delivered dozens of pieces to us in the time it took you to ship *zero*. If you think your product is premium enough to warrant this customer experience, you've lost your way.

I'm sure you'll tell me to DM you my order number, and you'll "look into it for me". And yes, I'll do that, because now I'm stuck in your vortex, sitting on the floor of my living room wishing I'd just gone to the local @jordansfurn 5 months ago.

Introducing Digits Search. A financial tool so powerful you'll think we stole it from the future. blog.digits.com/2021/07/21/d…
@AmeriGas I need help. I've spent almost 4 hours trying to get someone to delivery gas. I've been told my account is still with inside sales. No chat available. Outrageous hold times, and my pipes are going to freeze soon. What can I do here?

3 More hours on hold and 4 more times getting cut off. Promised 3 times for a call back, never got one. Promised for expedited propane delivery, never got one. Tank at 5%, unclear what more I can do. This has been going on for 2 weeks now.

Please @AmeriGas I'm at your mercy. Is there any escalation path, any way to even just pay an emergency delivery fee? Seriously, this is your chance to extort me and my family so we can keep our pipes from freezing. I'm desperate.

Remember 1996, when the biggest national health crisis was that Olestra might give you the runs? Good times. – at Sudbury, MA

So, @Verizon, your website says "5G Will Change Everything". When I get my iPhone 12 tomorrow, can you name one thing I'll be able to do that I can't today with your 60/20Mbps LTE? Despite $ MM in marketing, I still don't understand what's in it for me.

And according to the coverage map, 5G "nationwide" doesn't include New England. I know everyone hates the Patriots, but not rolling out towers across 6 states seems a bit extreme... verizon.com/coverage-map

20+ years in software systems eng, I've never seen a mature mass-market system as fragile as CableTV provisioning and cust support. @verizonfios can't deliver the channels I pay for, 2 hours with support and a cable card replacement, no less! May be time to finally cut the cord.
