You are searching for your dream gig
You interview
You do the tests, but:
"How do you really know you'll belong there?"
You can't.
That's why I love:

11. Last but not least, @ShinyObjectSC.
Shiny is the community that has helped onboard over 500 people into crypto/NFTs/metaverse and is poised for explosive growth in the next few months.
Season 1 and $SHINY are dropping soon.
Also, @tomosman is the GOAT of rocks.

Fully licensed, albeit quite terrible, copies of Bored Ape #3368 coming soon
We can only apologise for the quality. You can’t get the staff you know

We need to expand the way we think about employment.
We often assume there is a binary choice between 1.) full-time employment or 2.) being self-employed.
But that is a false and limiting dichotomy (a thread) 🧵 ...

I joined Twitter to meet people but:
⚡️Self-confidence & call-scheduling pain is stopping me from doing this regularly!
So...
If u want to be paired with an #indiehacker for weekly: "30min virtual coffee roulette", please ♥️, RT & reply 👋
I'll try & make something 4 us🤘

3 things that gave me confidence to quit my corporate job and try to fly solo:
1. Talking to my wife about mental health
2. Agreeing a runway target together (6 months)
3. Testing whether I could get an interview somewhere else
Hope this helps someone.

If DAOs enable the creation of more companies with a clearly defined value (“the token”)
Will we have:
- Each member putting in effort for a “fair” or equal share of the total value created
- A more quantified articulation of the value they bring, directly defining their share
We’re witnessing a new asset class dominated by online community coordination.
This is the rise of micro-economies ✅

Testing ideas for a side-hustle
This week I am going to post an idea a day and how I plan to test them #buildinpublic
Key q's:
- Is the customer problem I've identified actually a problem?
- Does the proposed solution resonate with people?
I'd love your feedback

Do you have a great boss?
I've had a few.
• They looked out for me.
• Checked I'm not overworking.
• Got me that raise.
I benefitted from just doing what they wanted. But they don't stay around forever.
Get good at being your own boss now, before you have a crap one.

Two different games:
Increasing the value of your time and getting someone to pay for it.
Increasing the value of something you own with your time and getting someone to pay for it.

Taking part in #ship30for30 taught me about building an audience online.
Here is the flow as I see it. Do these things CONSISTENTLY then the audience should follow 😉

The story of how Google started is something everyone who uses search engines should know.
Inspired by academic papers and started with no intent to build a search engine.
Here is that story with some takeaways in the thread below 👇🏻

New favourite word: Apophenia
• The ability to find meaningful connections between unrelated ideas.
In an ever-changing world, this is a superpower.
