Covid produced a way of talking as “pendulum stoppy”. . Riff on if that if it sounds or feels like an accurate way of saying some things in a way that meant to stop the pendulum from going any further. But immediately.

“Daily active users” is the answer to what problem? Bitcoin is a 3 dimensional application for procuring sustenance with provable energy translated into a digital form. Bitcoin is accepted by a critical mass of products and services that matter. A critical mass number when regarding sustenance is like12 things really. So if you can find the 12 things you need in Bitcoin then hearing “daily active users” will sound like some of the dumbest shit in the World because your 12 things mean you’re out of the matrix. You are exchanging real world energy for food from people that give you sustenance for real world energy. What else do you need? If you can play Mario brothers in real life how could you possibly find “daily active users” an interesting or relevant thing?

Culture is what you won't tolerate. If you don't tolerate tardiness, then when people ask your team about the culture they will say things "you can't be late here" so long as you show that you don't tolerate it. If you tolerate tardiness, no one will explain your culture as punctual. When you're building a culture think about the select few things (too many and they can't be remembered) like direct feedback, *A players only, speed and kindness not to be confused with weakness. *A Player Definition: 90% likely to achieve outcomes that only 10% of applicants for that role could achieve. A players seem to be the most immutable thing in all of startups so just get that one right if you're gonna get any right.
