Web3 is hot 🔥🔥 and everyone has an opinion, and in the metaverse, there are wars raging: VCs vc @jack @levie @pmarca blocks anyone web3 critics etc..

(1) So at @Twitter university, I started learning and compiled a opinions, analysis and resources mega-thread of threads 👇👇👇
@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter (2) Classic VC argument from @cdixon > Good painting of a future, some broad brushes, kumbaya, train is coming, get FOMO, etc.:

@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter @cdixon (3) Inspired by “You margin is my opportunity” by @cdixon

@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter @cdixon (4) @BlakeBurge ’s Thread - more approachable visual definitions and deep dives:

@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter @cdixon @BlakeBurge @punk6529 (6/x) @nishitajain of @ARKInvest takes a practical approach - what does web3 solve? - Really good thread

@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter @cdixon @BlakeBurge @punk6529 @nishitajain @ARKInvest (7) So, you like the idea, there seems to be logical strength to it, but want to learn more, I got you covered. Start with diving deep with @BrianFeroldi ‘s thread

@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter @cdixon @BlakeBurge @punk6529 @nishitajain @ARKInvest @BrianFeroldi @jackbutcher @PrasoonPratham (10) And another serious reading, I've been spending a lot of time here:

@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter @cdixon @BlakeBurge @punk6529 @nishitajain @ARKInvest @BrianFeroldi @jackbutcher @PrasoonPratham (11) But, is this all real, seems too good to be true, what's the other side of the argument? Start with @moxie lucid
Critique, very l practical and brings web3 to where it is today, strong analysis that anyone can understand, even developers :-)

@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter @cdixon @BlakeBurge @punk6529 @nishitajain @ARKInvest @BrianFeroldi @jackbutcher @PrasoonPratham @moxie (12) From @Box CEO @levie who I respect a lot, another great thread, again touches on some fundamental assumptions and critiques

@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter @cdixon @BlakeBurge @punk6529 @nishitajain @ARKInvest @BrianFeroldi @jackbutcher @PrasoonPratham @moxie @Box (13) @jack the god of @Twitter blasts out against the VCs trying to “own” web3 > some merit to this, it's VC's gold rush, and they do shape markets with their capital

@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter @cdixon @BlakeBurge @punk6529 @nishitajain @ARKInvest @BrianFeroldi @jackbutcher @PrasoonPratham @moxie @Box @brian_amstrong @coinbase (15) Bonus: All the noise on on-chain and off-chain, the god of #Crypto lays out his case that web3 will be multi-chain and not cross-chain - in other words, one giant web3 world that’s interoperable and inter connected will be impossible.

@jack @levie @pmarca @Twitter @cdixon @BlakeBurge @punk6529 @nishitajain @ARKInvest @BrianFeroldi @jackbutcher @PrasoonPratham @moxie @Box @brian_amstrong @coinbase @ksam @AndrewSteinwold @balajis @BanklessHQ @gregisenberg @jacksondame @ljxie @MariaShen @naval @packyM @useWeb3 @VitalikButerin @VirtualElena @Zeneca_33 (18) My impression : In the world of technology, devs is leading indicator:
tl;dr - Web3 is at All-Time Highs:
* 18k+ monthly devs
* 3k NEW devs touch web3 code each month
* Several emerging ecosystems growing faster than @ethereum

So, go learn more, keep the open mind, and get involved if you are inspired.

It's not easy to predict the best time to call prospects.

Was helping a portfolio co. this morning and I dug in to what research says.. A thread 👇 👇👇
1/ But did you know that the best time of day to cold call a prospect is between 4:00 pm and 5:00 pm in their local time?
2/ During that window, most people are wrapping up their day, and thus are more open to disruptions than at other times. They're also likely to be at their desks.

What did I learn from organizations getting started in #AI?

They start by not building, but by asking questions. (a thread..) (1/10) Image
What problems exist that needs to be solved?
Why can't this problem be solved by traditional software, Why do we need #MachineLearning ?(2/10)
The answer belongs to one in 4 categories:
Category 1) Need to process a lot of data and is not possible for traditional data analytics/BI methods to scale. Because you have to make many micro-judgements on pieces of information and you want to speed up decision making (3/10)
