picked up "courage to be disliked" off @pmarca's reading list. cringe title but great book with a forgotten message on agency, courage and responsibility. its written as a socratic dialogue, I recommend.

yeah, experienced a version of it when twilio went public. difficult and unnatural for employees to understand the lag and lack of correlation between effort, results and market price, which is often years. the more irrational the market the worse it is.

cool — if you’re launching an app coin i feel you want something like this. otherwise you’re just giving away the entire company on day 0.

didn’t know how hackable cars are: - modern cars send messages from the electronics through to a bus (engine, wheel, breaks, etc) - they almost all use the same protocol “CAN” bus - can just plug in a compatible device, intercept and start sending messages and the car just does it. This is how comma.ai open source self driving car add on works. cool talk https://youtu.be/nNU6ipme878?t=155&si=t5Gj5lwZpW3VpE3h

at an event just now “…abc company was able to achieve a one billion dollar evaluation—within a year!” good thing about having experience in crypto is I’m completely numb and unimpressed by evaluations, and really anything involving money.

I think open markets are generally bad for early stage communities and ventures. Massively distracting. Attracts speculators, activist 'investors' and unaligned people. Distorts incentives if things go too high or low. Financializes your culture and centers your movement irrevocably around price. There's some exceptions but overall I've seen the same things play out thousands of times over the years.
