@fintwit_news “I can understand wanting to have millions of dollars, there’s a certain freedom… that comes with that. But once you get much beyond that, I have to tell you, it’s the same hamburger.But being ambitious is good. You just have to pick what you enjoy doing.” — Bill Gates

My jaw dropped to the floor when I got this news. Facebook is shutting down the facial recognition system that it introduced more than 10 years ago and deleting the faceprints of 1 billion people: https://t.co/kzc9PhFffB

If you’re new to VC, one great way to start networking is to join slack groups that have virtual coffee matches every week. I’m a part of multiple & each week I get paired with different investors across the ecosystem. Starting with a blank networking slate is hard, try this!

God, State, Network. Theism, Statism, Numism. Numism, or the study of coins, puts a third Leviathan at the center of it all. The most powerful force in the world is considered to be neither god, nor the US military, but encryption. https://t.co/2NWGNraEx7

If we see someone throwing money away, we call that person crazy. Money has value. Wasting it seems nuts. And yet we see others—and ourselves—throw away something far more valuable every day: Time. https://t.co/eBEZ3ox424

Great writing sings. With different rhythms. Some long sentences. Some short ones. h/t @david_perell https://t.co/ZClzHxRHUl

Everytime I start BIG, I fail. Everytime I start small, I succeed bigger than I could have imagined.

@elonmusk @DrEliDavid Ahh...the UN bubble is finally being burst! Thank you @elonmusk @DrEliDavid for starting the conversation! The UN of today is exactly like the Wall Street Banks of 2008. Here's my analysis - it's a bit long, but very interesting on how the UN of today gets away scot free. https://t.co/FwAdjrAVZS

1/ apple, google, and facebook are turning into governments they control everything on their platforms (ios/android/oculus) including speech, payments, taxation so an open metaverse can only exist on the web - the only platform that has no dictators 🧵👇

The internet should not go from “everything should be abundant” to “everything should be scarce” just because we are searching for an interesting blockchain use case.

@DrEliDavid If WFP can describe on this Twitter thread exactly how $6B will solve world hunger, I will sell Tesla stock right now and do it.

This is brilliant: Software engineer got tired of getting rejected by automated screeners and tested a theory. Real resume: 0% success Obviously fake resume stuffed with buzzwords: 90% success rate Calls from from Notion, AirBnB, Reddit, Dropbox, Robinhood, etc https://t.co/m80GUnPsr2

Your Zone of Genius is where your interests, passions and skills align. Operating in your Zone of Genius means playing games you are uniquely well-suited to win. Once you identify it, you can stop playing *their* games and start playing *yours*.

Google goes all in on creating the Master Algorithm. https://t.co/yohk1fXLSH

Two years ago we planted 20,000,000 trees and now we want to remove 30,000,000 pounds of trash from the ocean with #TeamSeas! $1 = 1 less pound of trash in the ocean! https://t.co/SbN0Hkynwb

We've built an AI system that solves grade school math word problems. Starting to achieve decent accuracy & represents significant progress on top of GPT-3: https://t.co/pCwfLsdaZP https://t.co/2gCSF7gc6o

Part I - Everyone is wrong Most people think "the metaverse" is a virtual place. Like in the movie Ready Player One. A virtual world, like Minecraft, Roblox, or like Zuck showed in the facebook demo yesterday. But what if it's not a place?

1/ When it comes to your startup’s valuation, revenue is only one piece of the puzzle. Here are the most important factors affecting your company’s price tag. 🧵

We are very honoured that @facebook felt inspired by the logo of our migraine app - maybe they’ll get inspired by our data privacy procedures as well 👀 🤓 #dataprivacy #meta #facebook https://t.co/QY7cota36r

You can now get a job at Gumroad without talking to a human. No phone calls, no live coding interviews. 100% async.

Belajar jauh lebih mudah kalau materinya dibuat terstruktur, diberi contoh dan analogi sederhana, dijelaskan cara aplikasinya dengan mudah, apa dasarnya cara kerjanya demikian, apa constraint-nya, gimana minimize knowledge gap siswanya.

Central Limit Theorem is the closest thing to magic I've ever seen. And I've watched all the Harry Potter & Lord of the Rings movies. https://t.co/HRRTRzElEZ

Web3 offers exciting possibilities for new forms of organisational structure, ownership and innovation. It can be a liberating force. Piece for @Discourse_Mag, which nods to @cdixon, @balajis, @packyM and others leading the intellectual charge https://t.co/geV6SYEX1b

Zuck & Jack are the Gates & Jobs of this era. Truly great founders who built and ran organizations through multiple decades and tech transitions. Now they're pivoting to web3 and Bitcoin respectively, while founderless web2 companies of similar vintage are not gonna make it. https://t.co/shUT16YsoR

Meta comment on Meta Notice that Zuck went direct with his announcement. And when he decided to give an interview, he gave it to a smart independent like Stratechery, not a legacy media corporation. And it's a good interview. https://t.co/oaQJNkHPaK

I strongly believe you can be both kind and successful.
