What SaaS startups are know for churning our high quality AEs / sales teams? - Hubspot - Gong - TripActions - Deel Who else?

@borrowed_ideas ^BTW this is just for US and Canada, I think RoW is a different picture.

@borrowed_ideas Don't think so. What's effectively happened is TT is Snap 2.0. They'll monopolize Gen Z / younger millennials users and creators but they're boxed in to < 30 (content doesn't resonate with older demos). Reels will monopolize the 40+ demo but its too "boomer" for the kids.

@borrowed_ideas IMO core issue with Reels is the content is atrocious because they don't have the *right* creators. Though that has nothing to do with monetization, it's mostly brand association (eg. same reason teens don't want to be on Facebook the blue app).

Three flags a non fiction book is going to be shit: 1. Grand theory that explains everything with one variable, dismisses multivariate 2. Cherry picks case studies, no other methodologies or data 3. Author spends a lot of time interviewing Why Nations Fail, Good to Great, etc

Why did smartphones never turn into a "bubble" (esp. post iPhone)? Too high upfront capex requirements + complexity of supply chains? Limited number of financial assets with a lot of liquidity for trading (eg. crypto coins)?

Highly recommend checking out the below if you're hiring!

@JerryCap This is a good intro to the topic known as moving from "code to data". TLDR instead of having a developer hardcode the rules, workflows, etc. an AI/ML model just figures it out through reams of data.

@GavinSBaker Not surprised that YoY avg. time spent is coming down, novelty effect for new users is dissipating and I suspect TT is now acquiring less engaged demos (eg. millennials). The acceleration in DAUs is the most interesting.. TT pigeon holed to mostly Gen Z?

@JerryCap Because holding the context of previous words / sentences creates exponential permutations - too hard for your phone to process. https://t.co/lzTxvPk3wx I know this isn't what you're actually looking for but it's an interesting primer on transformers using keyboards as an ex

After an entire year of research (a lot of it studying the technical / hardware aspects of VR / AR), I still have no idea what to think of any of this. I'm still confident he'll spend an incremental >$100B on AR / VR over the next decade. https://t.co/Y1d4vawiLK

Not quite there but getting closer with YT and Search? https://t.co/vk0KcMPDYc

@ruima https://t.co/mAymrSbsTl is this easiest one I've used so far. There's a dropdown that lets you control the aesthetic.

@modestproposal1 The IG shopping product itself is *really* bad - so it seems to be mostly execution. Issue is fixing it so hard (higher performing leaders won't risk their career on a turn-around). OTOH.. Google Shopping is absolutely crushing it after several years of failed take-offs.
