It may be easier than ever to start a product, but building a company is just as hard as its ever been.
Truth.
We don’t have a tech bubble for a variety of reasons. If anything, we need to be encouraging people to be doing more in tech.
Life is too short to be a boring company.
The purpose in life is not to find yourself. It’s to lose yourself.
Happiness is neither virtue nor pleasure, nor this thing, nor that, but simply growth. We are happy when we are growing.
William Butler Yeats
I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.
Martin Luther King Jr. (via david)
The fundamental problem of communication is that of reproducing at one point either exactly or approximately a message selected at another point. Frequently the messages have meaning.
Claude Shannon, 1948
The intrinsic path to success is to focus on being the person that you are, and put all of your energy and drive into being the best possible version of yourself.
No man, for any considerable period, can wear one face to himself, and another to the masses, without finally becoming bewildered as to which may be the true.
Nathaniel Hawthorne
We are aware that we are doing something significant. We’re here at the beginning of it and we’re able to shape how it goes. Everyone here has the sense that right now is one of those moments when we are influencing the future. Most of the time, we’re taking things. Neither you nor I made the clothes we wear; we don’t make the food or grow the foods we eat; we use a language that was developed by other people; we use another society’s mathematics. Very rarely do we get a chance to put something back into that pool. I think we have that opportunity now. And no, we don’t know where it will lead. We just know there’s something much bigger than any of us here.
