Hot take: Everyone is wrong about the Metaverse. here's my 3 part theory..
Define the problem your startup is solving so that you have a huge solution space to explore. Pandora was a radio app and missed the larger music app opp. Spotify captured that & now they’re for listening to music & podcasts. But these days, I discover more new music on TikTok.
What if the most powerful algorithms are ones that have no goal—they’re open ended? Notes on Ken Stanley braininspired.co/podcast/86/ 1/ There would be no humans if the goal of evolution was to create humans. Evolution is an open-ended process exploring the space of possible solution

6) The Amazon term, “narrative information multiplier” refers to the fact that people read roughly 3x faster than a typical speaker, so a written narrative delivers much more information in a much shorter time. This is multiplied by the # of meetings you attend in a day.
I’ve resolved to go deep on Amazon’s use of writing to help run a business and make decisions. Here are the most useful insights I’ve uncovered so far:
80 players of all ages! Good to see all our future Mustangs! #MineolaProud
Another year in the books ✅ Had such a great group of campers and coaches! Thank you to the Mineola community for an amazing week and thank you @NaglersNotions for allowing us to use Mineola’s amazing facilities!! #Game7 #growingthegame #Mineolaproud
Welcome to the team !
So thankful to my Baldwin Family for their support & tremendous opportunity to help me grow as a leader! As I turn the page & begin this new chapter in my prof. career, I am incredibly enthusiastic & grateful to @MineolaUFSD for giving me the chance to advance and shine!
Why don’t we see more innovation in playgrounds for kids? Cafes for the parents & activities that appeal to a wider age ranges. They could easily charge a small admission fee and create a much, much better experience.
People are so upset right now about the 30% fee that Apple charges in the app store, calling it a tax. They claim it's slowing the growth of new businesses and, in particular, the creator economy. Why not this same argument against the real taxes everyone pays?
Maintaining a high altitude, big picture perspective on your business doesn’t just give you clarity on strategy and priorities, it also dampens the stressful events. It helps you enjoy your business more!
Nope
Is there anything better than this?!? #mineolagrateful #mineolaproud ❤️
