🌎 Now redesigning the https://t.co/HGCLKS5BD6 profile trips globe from scratch I've always wanted to add space trips, so starting with the moon here which you can add as a future trip, also adding Mars etc. Other trips also need to work here though like going into orbit like @satofishi did on @SpaceX's Dragon capsule which will be more in reach for more people hopefully pretty soon! Quoting @levelsio ✨ Finally built a timeline for https://t.co/HGCLKS5BD6 now I always wanted to make my site a bit more social, because I had profiles and trip overlaps and you could kinda see where other people went, but not something like this So on this new page you can see people near you, where everyone's trave… Related

Co-founder and CEO of Linear; previously principal designer at Airbnb, where he led the Design Language System, and founding designer at Coinbase.
Important for employees to ask some of these questions about equity before joining. Sometimes founders just don’t have their own experience these things so they don’t prioritize the employee equity. At Linear we tried to make it friendly as possible since the beginning: early exercise, 10y exercise window, reminding people about their 83b election, pushing back on 409a valuations, keeping company valuation in check and increasing over time, informing people about qsbs, and now running employee liquidity programs for all past and current employees. Quoting @deedydas Many startup employees do not recognize the sheer litany of ways that a founder can screw you over without you even knowing. Founder trust is one of the most important things to look at when you’re joining a startup. From cutting you out of M&A, screwing your retention pool, overdiluting your equit… startups Related

From one piece
There’s a huge launch crunch right now, and it will probably get worse

In financial documents, it’s clear that SpaceX views commercial launch as a rounding error compared to revenues from its own satellites in space.

Network School is not shutting down; that’s fake news. We received two notices. The first tells us to change the text of a sign. The second says that our coworking site, which was created by joining two adjacent units, evidently has a valid license on the left hand side but not the right hand side. We have a remedial period for both issues, and will remediate them shortly. But our members are otherwise unaffected. Related

With Web forms, the burden is on people to adapt to databases. Today's AI models, however, can flip this requirement. That is, they allow people to provide information in whatever form they like and use AI do the work necessary to put that information into the right structure for a database.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
