    ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs‏ @MorlockP 13 Oct 2021

    1/ Replies are, indeed, amazing. The hardest thing I've ever done in my life is run a small company. Most folks have, literally, no idea. All new / small / young companies WANT to roll over and die. It takes constant work to keep them alive. ...and folks don't realize that.pic.twitter.com/rnM3OpbTvv

        2/ so these people who have never even run a lemonade stand, very confidently and seriously announce "oh, it's easy, just pay your people more / give them more breaks / give them free health care / install air conditioning in the warehouse / give them a wellness center ..."

        3/ it gets back to Slate Star Codex thrive vs survive theory. folks who have had great tech industry jobs all of their adult lives, where cash just gushes from every faucet, believe in acausal cash flow there's infinite money - just be nice to people!

        1. Look prospects in their eyes. 2. Shake their hand. 3. Interview released Felons (good opportunity). 4. Consider the new class Vax Refusers (massive opportunity). 3. Reject all of the business school HR woke, algorithmic b/s. Never more opportunities both sides of this bet.

        What annoys me is that he accepts what a lot of the replies are arguing in the tweet with, "wild that $14 isn't enough" 8000 randos: 14 isn't enough

        It's almost as though when the government prints literal trillions of dollars and the political and banking castes syphon non-trivial portions of it, and the rest floods the economy, that it causes prices of everything- including labor- to inflate!

        This is what you get when you expand the administrative class beyond any reason by constantly expanding the government. Such people are so divorced from the real world, they actually believe an industrial civilization can be powered by intermittent and diffuse energy.

        Nothing in the world like coming in on Monday (after working Saturday/Sunday) checking the bank balance and realizing you have no f’ing idea how you’re going to make payroll on Thursday. Nothing sharpens the mind. When the company was young, we never missed

        2/ payroll, but there were some weeks it was close and a couple weeks where we partners had to put money in instead of getting a paycheck ourselves so that the employees could get paid.

        misread this as "Reptiles are, indeed, amazing. The hardest thing I've ever done in my life is run a small company." and got really confused for a sec

        just a mashup of shriekback lyrics and Smartflix - probably something one of us said on a Friday night, back in the day
