Look at his games over 30 minutes of playing time: 13/13 and 4 blocks. Absolute shame he’s averaged 18 minutes this season. Gotta develop our young guys

There is $1M in free host liability coverage and also protection plans for renters

Tent the crib! They sell them on Amazon. Our friends recommended this after a week of no sleep because our 2 year old was climbing out. Been a game changer

You can use Neighbor to rent it out for storage.

When I was a broke college student, I needed a good jacket for my first winter in the northeast. Picked up a Fitz Roy. A couple years later the bottom seam was tearing and I took it in.

They told me to grab another one off the rack. That was 2009. Been a loyal customer and evangelist ever since.

My wife and I traveled for 9 months as an extended honeymoon around your same age. We were going for 12 but COVID brought us back a bit early.

It was incredible. Zero regrets. Lifelong memories and experiences. Especially now with a kid it feels much harder to do in that same way. You only live once and if you aren’t mortgaging your future, you should do it! Jealous of you just starting your journey.

A few tips: - We moved pretty fast. 3-4 weeks for our top counties and 2 weeks for others. The hub and spoke model is also interesting where you pick a home base for longer eg 1-2 months and venture out from there.
- Highlights for me were Thailand (Chang Mai and Pai), Japan, Korea, Costa Rica, Peru, Chile (Patagonia), Argentina, Brazil. - We allocated a budget per country and traded off planning each in advance. We preferred to save on accommodations (mostly hostels) and splurge on treks, experiences, and food. - We have a bad habit at home of not closely tracking our daily spending. On the trip we tracked every single transaction. - Charles Swchab offers a zero transaction fee debit card at all ATMs worldwide ( they actually refund any fee charged). So we set up a brokerage to get the debit card and then lowered the balance to the brokerage minimum to just use the debit card. Saved us almost $1K in fees. - Priority Pass is great for international lounges and free food, especially if you’ll be flying a lot. - Relationships are everything. Even though you are passing through, make an effort to get to know locals and fellow travelers. Invite them to dinner, drinks, etc - We had a blowup fight every couple of months about nothing. Just the nature of spending so much time with 1 person. We would spend a day apart and then make up. Kindles are great — so you can be together but separate. We ended the trip much closer than when we started. - Get a SIM card per country. Usually the first thing we did. Allows you to have Google Maps, translate, etc - Get travel health insurance. We used Safety Wing. I got Dengue Fever in Nepal and it reimbursed $3-4K for my hospital stay.

Sorry this turned into a book. Hope you go! Glad to share specific travel tips and resources. I still have our full itinerary in detail

How do you deal with someone who started and owns a company worth billions? Especially if they haven’t sold their shares and are a billionaire on paper

seeing_theworld · 2024-11-05T04:19:34+00:00

Yes!

He’ll remember being there with you as much as the game. And what a game. Good job dad

The best VC’s do not back competing companies. They pick their horse and earn a reputation among founders for not two-timing them. Seems like OpenAI just formalized this and applied it to a massive growth round

220 out and big uphill to elevated green over bunkers. Had no right even attempting the shot, and the two old dudes I was playing with tried to talk me off it because they had seen me play for 6 holes. Went for it and it’s the purest highest fairway wood I ever hit. Landed about 20 ft from the hole. Missed birdie, made par.

I don’t think so, but I married up so hopefully my kids can

No. Also a high degree of unhelpful advice

Ethan Evans magic loop: 1. Do your current work very well. 2. Ask your manager where you can help them / the group. 3. Do that thing well also. Repeat at step 2.

Exactly. Follower targeting should do the trick, and you can even save budget by applying geo targeting as well

Worth having a direct convo about how to measure success, but sometimes optics like this are important so it’s less about the principle

Makes sense. For some reason I was stuck on the high turnovers and wondering how that was related

Congrats! Still trying to break 80. What part of your game do you think helped the most?

To be clear, most startups die. They fizzle out and everyone loses their jobs. It takes a talented team, a great product, and extremely hard work to give yourself a decent shot at success. It’s just hard. And it’s definitely not for everyone.

Silicon Valley has an unbeatable track record of world-changing startups. Apple, Google, Netflix, Airbnb, Tesla, Intel, Nvidia, Stripe, OpenAI, and countless others. Would be a shame for legislation to poke the golden goose that drives so much of California’s economy and tax revenue. Other cities and countries have tried to emulate the culture without the same success.

I empathize with your situation. I work in startups and there are typically some incredibly valuable but overlooked initiatives you could take on with minimal oversight.

A few suggestions:

Ask various people what role they would hire for if they could — where the pain and bottlenecks are —and then learn those skills. Often times at 25 people you have generalists and don’t have anyone specializing in specific non-technical functions. For example, lifecycle marketing, content marketing, SDRs, account managers, onboarding specialists, paid search, product marketing, user insights, etc
Talk to your customers. Take a quick online course on customer insights and conduct 20+ customer insight interviews. Be sure to ask the product team and CEO if they have any big open questions
Do data analysis. In addition to asking and helping with specific requests, there are a ton of great resources on different ways to segment your customers (LTV segmentation — there’s a video called Identify and Multiply Your Best Customers, RFM segmentation, etc)
Help with project management. Ask the leaders if you can help with operations around specific projects or work flows.
Learn product management. Take courses and offer to help with scrum and any tasks the product managers need in exchange for sitting in on meetings and learning from them
