@MostlyTechPod Yessss

@mokshith_v @TransistorFM Nope! We do the hosting and analytics for audio podcasts.

@randfish @LiveDatos Any sense of if/how ChatGPT and other LLMs are changing search behavior?

@ProfBillMcGuire “We’re experiencing, in our lifetimes, a heating episode that is probably unique in the last 4.6 billion years.”

– @ProfBillMcGuire

@joshnuss Thank you!

It's similar to the idea of being on the "hot seat" (which I've done at different retreats), where you have to explain a business problem you're experiencing and get advice from the group.

But I like the idea of demoing something a team has just built.

@mattwensing @bryce I met him at XOXO. He is surprisingly tall!

@levelsio Google announced all of this 4 years ago… and then canned the project. 😩

@cathrynlavery @emilyrcolman Cheers! 🍸

@CasJam @ianlandsman Brian, when are you and @JordanGal going to stop messing around and build the next Great Company™ together?

You two would be unstoppable!!!

@mitchdav @Apple I think it’s the way I curl my fingers on my left hand when typing.

@jslackey @iamjeremyenns Yessssss. Love this!

Real humans are listening!! ❤️

@asmartbear @george__mack I’m not sure I agree with George’s assertion that we are in “peak envy” right now.

There’s a good argument to be made that envy peaked in the 1980s!

@p_millerd ❤️❤️❤️

@asmartbear I read it and upvoted it!

@uhhhhhhh__ok @noahkagan Just opened it: https://twitter.com/mijustin/status/1764332742672789724

@Edward_Says_ @p_millerd @TransistorFM Thank you!

@AndrewWarner @TransistorFM Accessibility is a big one.

One of my favorite features is the ability to browse a text transcript on the podcast website and jump to they part of the audio:

@saasmakermac @TransistorFM Thanks! 😊

@dohertyjf @TransistorFM Thanks for helping us spread the word, John! We're excited about this one.

@zackgilbert @TransistorFM Thank you!

@arvidkahl @TransistorFM Thanks Arvid!

@JackRhysider Well done!

(@iamjeremyenns and I have mentioned you a few times on our new show!)

@jayclouse Aerobics video?

@hatch2k3 Haven’t skied since I was 12, but I’d like to try it again.

@asmartbear You are not your customer... except you have both tried to solve the problem and have experienced the emotions that come with trying to solve that problem.

(The big difference is that you were crazy enough to build a business to try to help solve that problem)

@asmartbear I think you're discounting all the emotions you experienced as a WP user that informed your experience building WPengine.

You can't really understand why security matters until you've been hacked and lost 122 blog posts. (And stayed up trying to fix it)

https://twitter.com/mijustin/status/1761803907045507574

The hardest thing to understand (if you've never done what the customer is trying to do) is the EMOTIONAL EXPERIENCE.

The feeling of...
...elation when you figure out a cool function in Excel
...shame when someone says your podcast sucks
...despair when your site gets hacked

When you've done "the thing your customers are trying to do," there are parts of that experience that are universal:

"I want my site to not crash if it gets a lot of traffic."
"I want my site to be fast."

Also:

"I hope people read my blog post."

https://twitter.com/asmartbear/status/1761796954822996389

@wbetiago This is different from "solve your own problem" in that there might not be a specific problem you're fixing, but just an intuitive sense of all the ways an experience could be better for everybody trying to do that thing.

@asmartbear I'm talking about the underlying core of the business (in your case: "running a WordPress site that doesn't crash when it gets posted on Hacker News and doesn't get hacked").

My point is that if you're starting a business around "what it's like to run a WordPress site," you…

@meemodoteth Critics of Calhoun's rat experiments warn about anthropomorphizing mice.

Even Calhoun himself had multiple conclusions about his experiments; not all pessimistic.

@markjaquith Any sources for “probably good until we hit a trillion people?”

@markjaquith What about the “finite resource” and ecological collapse problem?

We can’t just keep increasing the population and consuming limited resources forever…

@nerdontour @iamjeremyenns Thanks for listening (and sharing)!

@jeremyvaught If you know, you know

@toomaime Nice! Glad it's working for you. 👍

@LaravelPodcast @taylorotwell @stauffermatt Yes! Start with an ugly UI. 👏

@SegMetrics @TransistorFM @AcquiredFM Thanks for sharing it! 🙌

@andrewshell I haven't heard of them altering their original position:

https://twitter.com/dhh/status/1225149444603011072

@merott Silverstar. BC 😄

@AndrewAskins Yes! 👏

@claybitner XERO

It was the only one my accountant and I could agree on! 😜

@podcastharry Haha. Nope! 100% real

@ivanbrezakbrkan 🙌

@UsefulWithWords @daniel_nguyenx You’ve got to build a network!

@rezzz Works for everything.

I have a friend who just launched a freelance business, and I recommended he do the same thing.

“Who are 5, 10, 20 people you can think of that might need video editing services? Email those people and let them know you’re launching your own business.”

@raae 👀

@eugenefvdm Thank you for reading (and sharing!)

@Shpigford Yup. We're just out here in the in-between space.

@matfrana 🙌

@KatieKeithBarn2 Yup. Agreed. https://twitter.com/mijustin/status/1758580863590084660

@matfrana I've always preferred the term Xennial (1977 to 1983) for people like us.

We really were the crossover generation between Gen X and Millenials (and have unique attributes compared to both groups).

@typeoneerror I cross-posted this to LinkedIn, Threads, and Mastadon... very curious to see the differences. 👀

@levelsio @dvassallo NICE.

I need to get better at buying stocks. 😅

Do you buy them personally (after-tax?), or do you buy them with a holdco?

Example of what I mean:

@mikeherreraTD @NOFXband @FatMike_of_NOFX @TraMilburn @ryanfurlott @mxpx @mikeherrerapod @tomisnotangry @holli_herrera @TakamineUSA @ernieball So great!

@Chik The latest episode of @mikerugnetta’s new podcast discusses this. He interviews @its_adamneely about how the internet hasn’t (and can’t?) replace real-life music performances.

@mlafeldt Thanks for listening and sharing the episode!

Anything in particular from the episode jump out at you?

@stauffermatt @ItMeansFaith ❤️❤️❤️

@chenellco @iamjeremyenns Would love for you to listen and let us know what you think.

@tomrossi7 @iamjeremyenns @arithisandthat @webby2001 @BryanBarletta Thanks Tom!

@iamjeremyenns Super pumped to finally get this out in the world!

@AlbanBrooke Thanks!

@stephenrobles Thank you!! 🙏

@devdcdev In the context of my tweet, "five stars" is more metaphorical:

"Give them 5-star service"
"Build a 5-star product"
"Do 5-star marketing"

@scottwyden @iamjeremyenns @ApplePodcasts @Spotify @OvercastFM @pocketcasts Thanks Scott! 🙌

@aarondfrancis That's your elven name

@climatepaige I have a little series with @iamjeremyenns where we do this!

@forgebitz What was Wenger thinking sending Walcott on that early?

Often, being average won't get you where you want to go:

On average, most new startups make very little revenue.

An average resume doesn't get picked; the above-average application does!

People don't listen to "the most average podcast." They listen to exceptional podcasts.

@p_millerd Printful is the best I’ve tried.

@rezzz Got it! Thanks! I appreciate your response.

@saasmakermac Have you read my newsletter yet? I'd love for you to reply. Feels like we could go deep on this one!

@gilbert 😱

@ianlandsman This was a good one!

@tylertringas @_rchase_ @hostifi_net @calmfund You did TWO podcast recordings today?

MARATHON!

@warsh33p ENHANCE

@chris__sev @Geocodio Yes!

@cnorm35 Yes! @mxpx got some good real estate on there.
