4th of July makes the think of food and how everything I ate as a kid was basically poison. Bless mum’s heart but...
What I was fed I now see as child endangerment:
-Cereal, OJ
-Sandwiches, school lunch garbage
-Afternoon cookies & bagels
-Pasta or rice every dinner
-McD’s & Taco Bell for treats
—Surprise! I got tubbby
I lost 30lbs in a year just not eating every visible carb & sweet, but pizza & ice cream still. That convinces me I could have done this as a kid and still been happy.
It’s wild there are no restaurant chains for healthy kids. “Way better Healthy Meal toy, way fewer fries.” Hope this exists when my spawn emerge.
Eating healthier today takes money or time, but @ThistleCo salad delivery & @Nomiku Sous Vide make it faster. More startups fixing food plz

Your careers page is bad and you should feel bad. It's wasting your team's 🕑+💸 by hurting your recruiting.

2. Make your equity look like a steal by adding metrics, not just feel-good marketing speak Image

Nerdy fact: I wrote my master’s thesis about memes.

I argued that remixable memes like LolCats would lower the bar to creativity.

Here’s how they exploit our narcissistic desire for attention to make us share more…
Most people aren’t that creative. They want to color…but within the lines. That’s why remixable memes are so powerful.

They lay out a template:

Cute cat + Poor grammar caption = LolCats wholesome fun

People chillin -> Beat drops -> Dance like crazy = Harlem Shake’s absurdity
Remixable memes mean you don’t have to make content from scratch.

Just replace one variable with your own idea, and it’s easy to make, recognizable, & proven to be viral

Since it’s personal, you share, and that drives attention to the source material & inspires more remixes

The WSJ's "Facebook Files" is the biggest scoop in the company's history. Internal documents prove:
-Facebook knew its algorithm incentivized outrage
-Instagram knew it hurt teen girls
-Facebook has been shielding VIPs from moderation

Here are the shocking revelations... 🧵
Facebook changed its algorithm in 2018, promote friends & family content to "improve well-being"

In actuality, it was an attempt to stop a multi-year decline in Likes and Sharing Image
Facebook's algorithm change incentivized hateful content, so political parties & news outlets made their posts angrier, driving polarization. Some shifted to make 80% of their posts negative, Fb's research found.

But execs refused to change back bc it would hurt usage & revenue Image

You can’t stop sex, you just make it less safe.

The OnlyFans ban could put creators in danger by pushing them back towards in-person sex work.

In interviewed some OnlyFans stars & experts to get real talk on the ban 🧵 1/7
OnlyFans isn’t banning porn, but is betting it can thrive as softcore-only with fewer headaches, even if it hurts creators.

It’s quietly been pushing the most graphic content off already. 2/7
The OnlyFans hardcore ban was driven by puritanical payment processors like Visa & MasterCard threatening to cut them off. It’s moral censorship not a legal issue

The risk is real. PornHub got cut off and had to shift to crypto & ACH transfers only. 3/7

Startup fundraising legal-ese is absurdly confusing. Here are the key terms and how to understand them... 1/
Liquidity Preference: Who gets paid out first at exit. 2X or 3X means a VC gets multiple times their $ back before founders get any! If there's none left, sucks for everyone else. Keep pref at 1X or the team & other investors might get nothing unless the company becomes huge. 2/
Warrants: VCs will ask for warrants - the right to purchase stock at a specific price at a later date - as compensation for coming in early and catalyzing a round. This is not standard! Avoid it! Other investors will just ask for the same deal when they find out. 3/

Flymachine just launched the future of livestreamed concerts:

-Broadcast in the best angles from top venues
-Overlaid video chat with friends
-Started by the TicketFly & Bonnaroo founders

Here's why it's a win for artists, venues, and fans where others failed 🧵
Concert streaming was asocial, boring, and unsustainable.

Music lovers deserve more than sitting by themselves watching single-camera streams from the basement of an artist who's not getting paid

Streams felt nothing like an IRL show 2/
You need 3 things to make concert streaming work:

1. Artists to earn $ without piling on extra work
2. Venues to bring the stage/light show while paying staff
3. Fans to feel the camaraderie of attending with friends

@FlymachineLive brings everyone into harmony
