really great read from.a former Instagram designer on the dysfunction of today’s largest tech companies.
Great artists don’t study art history to figure out what art to create.
Great founders don’t analyze the market to figure out what product to build.

My philosophy re startup speed has completely changed over the last few years.
I grew up at Uber, professionally, which held speed as the absolute, ultimate goal.
Now, I still value speed, but hold quality as the binding constraint.
Flo Crivellotwitter.comagree w/this point. speed gets less important the more competitive your market is. when the market is already full of crap you really need to rise above the rest
Human scale institutions strive for optimum scale. Not mega scale. The point at which maximum quality can be attained. Their purpose is not to maximize profitability. It is to maximize well-being. Whose? Everyone’s.
