Curious how the container tracking platform works?
I did a demo at the TPM conference. Here we discuss the origins of Terminal49, and a few other topics.

Just sent all the employees holiday gifts via . We now have employees in 9 countries!
Sending gifts internationally has been a challenge in the past. Especially gifts that people wants (that they can choose).

A double shot of espresso (18mg/36s) has ~110mg of caffeine.
If you are fan of coffee here is an interesting video of caffeine in different kinds of extraction/coffee drinks.
Also is a bad ass. Love his content.

Here is a song about my friend Liz written by GPT3
How far do you think we are where we can say "Take this song and sing it in Harry Styles voice, with a bass line and harmony"

Say what you will about . Over the last week he did a launch event for Tesla Trucks, Neuralink and ran Twitter.
He has quite the capacity to immerse himself in high bandwidth activities in a short period of time.

Half the containers moving in/out of the US move over rail.
Over 100K people work in the railroads. U.S. railways are privately operated.
It's an embarrassment that the government has to step-in to provide paid sick leave benefits to employees, and they still don't deliver.

There is no proof of success in this statement given their business.
Total money loaned/ARR bought out might be a good start but that's not even the gross revenue.
Those numbers are a misleading metric of success.

We’ve attracted over 22,000 companies to Pipe with $7B of ARR connected to our platform. This is an incredible feat, and it’s only the beginning.

Startups are hard.
It's harder with a kid.
It's tough when they are sick and you have to keep them home.
It's challenging when you get sick from whatever they have.
It gets harder when your partner also works your startup.

It went well I think! It was good to see all the partners in person. Nothing beats in-person after months of zoom calls.
Could have spent 2 more hours covering parts of the business and strategy. Lot of work ahead of us.

What is this obsession with building in public?
I mean I get but how the heck does one have the time to tweet so much?

I am really enjoying Peripheral on Amazon prime. My kind of sci-fi.
Beautifully shot and well paced so far. Feeling optimistic about this one.

Investors love high growth and encourage it. Startups are messy.
Growth and mess are correlated. Sometimes startups fall apart when things get very messy.
Investors/founders should know when to pull back.
Growth at all costs is unhealthy. People know this but don't change.

One of the biggest changes in the Indian cricket team has been their ability to soak in the pressure.

Shopping for an Apple Product is like trying to pick a show to watch on Netflix.
You watch all the trailers and end up watching nothing.
Too. Many. Choices.
