What’s up Vitalik! You may not know me but just wanted to say I’m a big fan of yours. thank you for everything you’ve built in the world of crypto, otherwise @Autograph wouldn’t have been possible. Hope I get to meet you some day you’re the 🐐
Replying to @VitalikButerin
I didn't even know who Tom Brady is, had to ask people around me. My best guess was that he was the actor from Mission Impossible.

This is not how you lead. People feel safer and businesses do better when you control the spread of infection. @GaDPH tell Brian Kemp that his state is on fire and we can put it out with masks and that we can do far more to encourage vaccinations.
The executive order I signed today will make sure businesses across our state can’t be punished by local governments for trying to make a living, pay their employees, and save their livelihoods. Georgia is open for business!

Delta is really transmissible, which is much worse than immune escape. On the other hand, there’s reasons for optimism from the likes of Australia and Vietnam that we can take action other than vaccination to stand on its way. Let me explain… 2/x

I'm not a professional data analyst, but... oh wait I *am* a professional data analyst. Nebraska is lying about how many covid cases it has.

Lesson #4: Chaos is exacerbated by growth. Too many organizations and first time leaders are focused on subduing chaos. Embrace it. Ironically, chaos is one of the few startup problems that growth doesn’t solve. In fact, it’s caused by growth.

Let’s see… No $15 min wage…No student debt relief…No new Voting Rights Act…No PROAct…No aggressive climate change initiative…No…No…No… This ain’t no FDR moment… This seems like a Jimmy Carter moment… Which led to Reagan, a RW GOP, and a neoliberal Democratic Party.

2/ Kinda goes like this: Person says something racist. Others: "Hey, that's racist." Person: "YOU SNOWFLAKES ARE VIOLATING MY FREE SPEECH!!" How about just, y'know, "My bad"?

I don't own any $SQ, and this is not financial advice, but I'll be backing up the truck and buying on every dip from here on out. @jack is connecting the dots between culture, tech, and finance at a level I've never seen from a public company CEO.

Costco and Walmart have the same low prices. So you when you hear "raising the minimum wage will just result in higher prices or layoffs," remember that's not basic business. It's corporations making a choice: pay more or give shareholders billions more nitter.gq/DanPriceSeattle/status…
Min wage Costco: $16 Walmart: $11 Average pay Costco: $24 Walmart: $15 Employees on food stamps (subsidized by you) Costco: Virtually none Walmart: More than any other company Founder net worth Costco: not a billionaire Walmart: over $220 billion; up $30 billion in pandemic

What are we supposed to tell voters in 2 years before the midterms? Sorry, we couldn’t pass the $15 minimum wage that we promised you because the Senate parliamentarian advised against it? Two-thirds of voters want this done. Time to deliver.

Teachers *Need 6 years college and $100,000 in debt *Median pay of $58k a year *Forced back to work even as 530 of them died of covid *Most don't get vaccine prioritization as more schools reopen We really do treat our teachers like dirt and it's a shame theguardian.com/education/20…

Zappos figured this out a long time ago but it still holds true, if a customer asks you to send them a pizza on a Friday night YOU DO IT. Building a great customer experience starts with giving your team permission to go above and beyond, and then celebrating it.
