this one will get a lot of hate & disagreement but i think one of the biggest mistakes this industry has made is funding yappers, ie., VCs funding thinkbois & founders thinking they need to post multiple times a day & have an opinion on everything to remain relevant this leans somewhat into the overblown concept & emphasis surrounding attention do you think zuck or bezos or jobs or whoever where posting over intellectualized opinions & daily learnings in their early days still to this day, the vast majority of our most effective ceos & founders do not do this—most don’t even want to provide opinions on earnings calls: they want to stick to operations, they want to be black & white outside of one or two 30-minute conference chats a year, which from my experience, most tend to loathe anyway, leaders do not yap; they run companies not until these leaders have successfully exited a multi decade run do they even entertain a book or sharing their learnings this industry conflates the two

Hmm so I have no experience leading a company, but I do feel like it’s important for the modern day leader I think @0xmert & @jessepollak both do well at “battling” online. It’s just feels like authentic marketing because you’re forced to confront opposing ideas in public. I’m assuming Mert like battling more than Jesse :P Jesse seems too nice to enjoy it. But either way, it does seem overall good to me. I don’t disagree with your sentiment though.

wouldn’t include either in this bucket 😆 perhaps theres a subtle overlapping yet distinct difference between founder & leader in this context — what both of them do is necessary in their own right
