If you don't want extreme levels of autonomy and ownership, and don't aspire to be a founder, join a medium sized company. It's the best of both worlds in many ways - equity that's more of a sure thing, not yet extremely bureaucratic, and you can still access the early founders/pioneers.

How do you define medium-sized? Certain company age? Certain employee count? Obviously it's all relative, but I'd be curious to hear your opinion on it.

100 sats \ 2 replies \ @Bell_curve 19 Feb

100 employees or revenue is 100 million

10 sats \ 1 reply \ @k00b 20 Feb

I think that's actually a good rule for medium sized. I'm a little biased toward the tiny side of things so I was thinking more so small to medium rather than what is medium on an absolute scale.

I have a friend who works in private equity and he usually targets 100 million for investment then flip in 5 years

10 sats \ 0 replies \ @k00b 19 Feb

Series A or later probably, but it's hard to define exactly what medium means here. Ideally some traction/revenue to stand on. It's less employee count because there are mega-staffed super-early companies these days. Maybe it's a maturity level thing?

I once gave a talk at Cal along these lines. Back then I said it meant "profitable or nearly so" but times have changed some.

Little experiment: I've bumped posting costs in ~bitcoin, ~nostr, and ~tech to 100 sats and removed free posts.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @0xbitcoiner 19 Feb

It seems to be working, only 1 bitcoin out of the last 21 posts. But I see a freebie.

Good day stackers.

Just finished a 14km run with my wife. She is training for a half marathon and I'm helping her with the training by running with her.

Howdy!

A holiday in both Canada and the US. Family day in Canada and President's Day in the US. I know we have a number of shared holidays but it's pretty cool that we have a shared holiday date without the shared holiday.

23 days of 100 push ups until $100k down. Undetermined to go. 19 days of 100 squats until $100k down. Undetermined to go.

question for the sn devs: how is the trust model for sn going? I know you've done a few tweaks since inception and I was wondering how you think it's performing? I'd be interested in an update from the team since is such an integral part of the sn algo. No need if you're too busy of course

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @k00b 19 Feb

It's going okay. It needs a lot of refinement but it's generally a good early model of what it should be.

Any other founders use the notification setting " when someone writes a post in a territory I founded" and find it not working correctly? I swear I'm not getting notifications for them every time.

A few times in the last week I've only noticed a new post in ~UFOs because I went and sorted by recent.

31 sats \ 1 reply \ @ek 19 Feb

Do you mean push notifications or your notifications here?

Our push notifications are still wonky but they should all show up in notifications.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @OneOneSeven 19 Feb

Just the red square part. Everything shows up correct chronologically on my notification feed.

Idk, maybe I've had too many SN tabs open the last few days taking the notification away when I'm bouncing between them. Will keep an eye on it though.

As of yesterday I'm 79 essays in to my goal of writing and reading 100 essays for Bitcoin Brunch. I would like to try to finish the hundred before brunch #150 but I think yesterday was #144. ^_^

Sounds interesting. Do you have a link to learn more about this project? What kinds of essays and where are you finding them? What do you hope to achieve?

528 sats \ 0 replies \ @premitive1 19 Feb

I write these essays myself, usually based on the discussions and topics brought up at the meetup, Bitcoin Brunch. I've hosted Bitcoin Brunch in Miami for almost three years now. I would like to collect all 100 essays into a book which I can share with the internet.

many fun read from #429517 and now waiting to read a post about something I wish I had known before marriage.

especially the things not many people talk about, like how to get things done with minimal interference from any government, or even like @Darthcin once said that wives are more dangerous than the government. 👀

can you cite any case law supporting the conclusion of this graphic?

244 sats \ 4 replies \ @DarthCoin 19 Feb

Yes, mine. I used to sign all court or police documents with:

That will nullify them and you cannot be accused that you accept the contract you were dragged into.

21 sats \ 1 reply \ @premitive1 19 Feb

That will nullify them does it? or is it just something that you believe?

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @DarthCoin 19 Feb freebie

if didn't nullify it I wouldn't be here now, chatting....

Ask yourself:

what is a contract?
what could make a contract null?

Ave Darth I would like to add that it doesn't matter how you sign if your actions, speaking and being don't support it

"Anything can be an instrument, Chigurh said. Small things. Things you wouldnt even notice. They pass from hand to hand. People dont pay attention. And then one day there is an accounting. And after that nothing is the same…you see the problem. To separate the act from the thing. As if parts of some moment in history might be interchangeable with the parts of some other moment. How could that be? Well, it’s just a coin. Yes. That’s true. Is it?"

For me it's 98.5, but it depends on the solving method. There can be more than one way of solving.
