you know what most people don't realize with outbound?

-the goal of the email is to get a 10-min call
-the goal of the call is to get a 20-min mtg
-the goal of the mtg is to get the "sale"

ONE ask per step.

Ask gets bigger each step.

Reel them in.
too many try to put it all in the first email. wrong. email ignored.

instead:

"Here's 3 <VERY TAILORED> reasons why you should listen to me.

Can we speak for 10 minutes max on the phone?"

(and... ^ double space between reasons + ask is key :)
btw-- This is basically Cialdini's "Consistency" -- but in everyday life.

the ultimate question of the silicon valley experiment:

Does putting more money into the ecosystem lead to an expansion of high quality startups?

or

is the # of high quality startups hard capped (e.g. by a scarce resource such as exceptional founders)?
the hard-cap hypothesis is Fred Wilson's POV: avc.com/2009/04/the-ve…
And presumably the soft cap hypothesis is the big bet @ycombinator is making (along with the flood of other early stage money)

investment firms i find endlessly fascinating:

-Vista Equity
-Constellation Software
-3G capital
Vista
-never lost money on a deal
-perhaps the best software investors in the world (or next to sequoia)
-their “VSOPs” consulting principles -- secrets they use to turn around old on-prem software co's
Constellation
-some guy in canada starts buying small, vertical software co’s
-rolls them up into a massive public co with 2b in revenue
-"We buy Good vertical market software companies. Now and again, we buy an Exceptional company"

Silicon Valley likes to think it has overcome the evils of credentialism signaling

but here, it’s just “YCS14” instead of “Harvard 08”
these biases, like halo effect, are human bugs.

can’t overcome with with pure intentions.
there was an old thread where a smart dude was asking @pmarca why only the top 20 VCs had great returns.

For the last 24 hours I've been texting & calling with refugees in Libya. 500 are apparently stuck in a Tripoli prison w/o food & water after heavy fighting broke out two days ago. They say their guards ran away, leaving them alone.
These refugees are men, women & children. They tried to cross the Mediterranean earlier this year, but were found by Italian boats, who turned them over to the EU-backed Libyan coastguard, who put them in prison. The conditions were already terrible before the fighting started.
Oh the phone earlier I could hear children crying & what sounded like bombing in the distance. The refugees say everyone's incredibly frightened. "We hear machine guns, tanks, big bombs, last night from the roof it was all fire."

At dinner, I learned more about corruption + racism built into society by our masters. A book we discussed (Zinn) was used as part of this "Left" resource's bibliography. I had to share. [A thread]

@BlackSocialists - thoughts on this resource?

historyisaweapon.com/indextrue.html
It very simply lays out the case that we are all being controlled. It covers hidden history of the United States including their (and, due to the systems created by our masters, our) racism.

One year ago, @Reince tweeted that the GOP had “a revolutionary data program” resulting in them “carrying WI for first time in 30 years.”

Attached was this article that said these “Data Operations” helped Trump win WI & will used for the 2018 midterms.

👉host.madison.com/ct/news/local/…
Trump won* WI by just 22,748 votes.

200,000+ in WI were unable to vote in 2016.

Along with MI & PA, WI was one of the 3 swing states that gave* the EC to Trump by a scant 78,652 votes.

All 3 States were among the 39 states reported as hacked by Russia.

Exit polls are a scientifically proven litmus test. In 2016, they were off by as high as 10%

Anything above ~2.5% indicates suspect anomalies. It triggers other countries to nullify elections.

In the swing states of MI, PA, & WI—all were all above 3%.

One year ago today I played THE best game of hide and seek with the police. A thread⤵️
Okay guys buckle up and grab some snacks because this is gonna be a long story consisting of an underage party, some teens, and a mattress.
So where do I begin? Well a little background first.
•I was 18 years old when this took place.
•It was the summer after senior year.
•I was not typically labeled as a regular partygoer and only occasionally drank, but didn’t like smoking.

On #MTG and safety and security, because it's topically relevant today: First and foremost, Magic cards are easily negotiated certificates of value. They're not quite stacks of cash, but they're close. If you wouldn't do something with a stack of cash, don't do it with cards.
At events, that means:
Don't leave cards or decks unattended. "Just for a moment" is the catchphrase of the forlorn gamer. You wouldn't leave a stack of cash alone with hundreds of strangers for just a moment. Don't do it with cards. #MTG
At events, that means:
Don't leave cards in your car. In the trunk/boot is better than the cab, but it's still not good. Parking in a lit area under a camera is better, but still not good. Yes, it's obnoxious to carry cards everywhere. Less obnoxious than replacing them. #MTG

One of my informal department tasks is helping our students transition to work. I don't know how it became my task but that is neither here nor there. I do it most often for sociology masters students but also some undergrads. A few things:
The week you graduate isnt too late to look for a job but it is too late to look for a job that will pay your next months rent.
About a year before you graduate turn your new social science skills onto yourself. Do topic modeling of job ads you find interesting. Do a content analysis of jobs by different occupational codes. Find the underlying tasks and skills embedded in them.
