@gaburieru4649 @ApplePodcasts A lot of my thoughts are here:

https://justinjackson.ca/podcasts-and-capital

tl;dr - open is better than closed 😉

@1923MainStreet @TransistorFM Yeah. Same for me. 🤔

@wilbertliu @bannerbearHQ @usefathom @TransistorFM @CssScan @heyhey Nice! That's a cool idea for a demo. I dig it.

@RikkinMajani I agree voting from home is where every democracy needs to go. 👍

@reddy2go Exactly. https://twitter.com/mijustin/status/1384006705302806532

@BrendanHufford Yeah! This “internet creator” thing is still really young. There are no “old timers,” really.

Even folks who have been doing it the longest (@kevin2kelly, @SethGodinBlog) are still just in their 60s!

@geetfun That’s exactly what I’ve been running about! 😄

Other professions have old-timers who can tell us what it’s like, but I don’t know too many “internet business people” in their 60s, 70s, 80s.

@amorriscode Haha. Thanks!

@JoshTristram @Shpigford Not public yet.

@Human5000 @mxpx Totally.

@AkilahObviously Yup. He’s an irredeemable snake. 🐍

@dvassallo I really feel more 50/50 on this one. (Maybe 40/60?)

@dohertyjf 🎯

@sh @shellen Omg. https://www.vacation.inc/?referredBy=jackson16086

@tylertringas @Shpigford Lol. @DescriptApp didn't have an AI voice for "distinguished southern gentleman."

@lesley_pizza Nice! I love a good hammock. Need to find mine in the garage.

@lotusleafstyle @swyx @github Listening now! Love it! Great conversation and good quality audio. 👍

@PaulAntWilliams Thanks Paul! 🙌

@Zteoheb Good point!

@immad when can I invest!? 😄

@peldi omg this is brilliant

@wesbos Nope, not a Canadian govt. 😅

@lepikhinb @JackEllis @pjrvs Looks good!

@ericlbarnes @ianlandsman @TransistorFM But I was a brick-and-mortar guy and eventually got enough experience to do software.

The category you choose determines your margins, customer demand, competition, etc. Of course it matters!

You keep assuming I’m pitting “zero experience” people against “folks with a chance.”

@ianlandsman I know a few folks who have owned fast food franchises (A&W).

They worked insane hours, had tons of headaches, and ended up making $80k year, and sold the franchise for not much more than they bought it for.

In their case, they would have been better off staying in the trades.

@iChris @mattmcgee @TransistorFM wrong. eating tacos from my office. 🤣

@evoterra @JamesCridland “Podcasters in diners eating eggs?”

Has a nice ring to it. 😂

@evoterra @JamesCridland I’d just like to see a video of you two getting breakfast. 😄

@martinproenza https://twitter.com/mijustin/status/1380260962511413249

@oktuned Exactly.

@ideaeconomy I agree. 👍 https://twitter.com/mijustin/status/1255872582101819393

@garrytan Your cadence, tone, and storytelling remind me a lot of Derek Sivers. I dig what you’re doing here. 👍

If you're going to take a risk, and start a business, it makes sense to ask yourself first:

- if you're the right player for this game (as a founder)
- if the potential return (in a given category) is reasonable for the level of investment that's required (time and/or money).

@earthlingworks Yup, we agree on that.

Part of what makes a category “good” is also whether it’s a good fit for *you* (as the founding team).

There’s a difference between what’s a good wave for Kelly Slater, and what’s a good wave for me. BUT: good waves need a baseline size and shape.

@earthlingworks It's similar to: "the car you choose to buy will greatly affect your enjoyment of driving."

Naturally, not everyone who buys a Tesla loves it; but for a certain customer, it's the best fit.

(It's not a perfect comparison, but illustrates the general thrust of what I'm saying)

@KarlLHughes Nice! I’ll give this a listen. 👍

@_middlesister I had a chance to look it over last night. Looks great! Eager to start the process. 👍

@mubashariqbal It was great! I learned a lot.

@GoodMarketingHQ @harrydry Love this one. 👍

@andreas_codered @noahwbragg @jonbuda @TransistorFM Thanks! 🙌

@_anibalr @jailandrade @TransistorFM I'd be happy to show you around Transistor!

I just recorded this video on my whole podcasting process:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N41v30oLM2o

@GraemeMac Filled it out! 👍

@chadkoh Wow. Incredible!

@jamesmkenny Glad it was helpful!

@MattGiovanisci @jasondoesstuff really enjoyed hearing from both of you on this episode!

(Still hoping one day we can meet up for realz and chat in person)

Looks like I'm not the only who encountered this today:

https://twitter.com/quietbyday/status/1378031031106830342?s=20

@PublicMobile got an SMS that our payment didn't go through this morning.

Trying to access your website, and it is slow and unresponsive (it frequently times out).

2 mins to load login page.

Took longer to access "Payment" page.

Clicked submit on payment... nothing.

@chasewreeves i know i have one on an old macbook in my basement can u tell me how to reset my password it won't let me in and my dog ate my backup codes

@christophrumpel Thanks!

@nickjmauro @Simplecast @TransistorFM Yessssss 🙌

@seanpritzkau @DescriptApp Yes! 🙌

I’m such a huge fan of @MatthewBogart and his comics.

I want everyone I know to pre-order this anthology.

(Especially if you were in the 80s-90s BBS scene)

@gaijinity No

@theothercole 🥰

@EddyVinckk Thanks Eddy! 🙌

@tylertringas @TwitterSpaces The screen recording utility on iOS no longer works. 😞

So now you'll need to plug your iphone into your computer and use a capture utility from there, or use a headphone jack out of the iphone into another recording device (like a Zoom).

@volkandkaya Margin is more is this sense: https://justinjackson.ca/margin

@CorbettBarr @unsplash Maybe... if the crowd equity cap goes beyond $5 million that might be possible?

@SimpleAsNat_ Join my party line on LinkedIn tomorrow at 10am pacific

@JamesCridland You’ve got to be kidding me.

I’ll take that radio dot com if they’re not using it...

(“Transistor Radio” has a nice ring to it)

@falicon 🤣

@SachaGreif u can nft anything

Most of the time, finding truth requires depth.

(You can’t know a tweet is true by looking at it, and judging it in the moment).

Discovering if something is true will probably take research and time. (Investigating multiple sources).

@clayhebert @pjrvs Why drive the car when you can own the NFT? 😆

@Mattylantz @drpoddevlo new episode! Nice. 🙌

Congrats on the baby 👶

https://overcast.fm/+VSqD8THq4

Excellent analysis from @sparkcbc on what’s driving demand for NFTs.

https://overcast.fm/+dTg_ff4

@quangv @ewarren 😱

@volkandkaya Route 53 doesn’t support ALIAS/ANAME records. Doesn’t look like there’s anything we can do. 😞

@vaugenwake Primarily on AWS, but we use other (ancillary) services as well.

@dimnls @david_perell Thanks for sharing it. 👍

@michaeldyrynda @TransistorFM Didn’t have time to investigate in detail. Definitely seems like they’re using a heavy JS framework.

@marshal This is happening everywhere!

I’d say Canada is even more nuts.

@theothercole Not yet! Pulled pork.

@theothercole So far: tacos.

@adamwathan @steveschoger @david_luhr So good! 🙌

@anthilemoon @ness_labs Wow! Well done! 🙌

@amahnke Thanks for sharing this. Your story is inspiring. 👍

@myfriendjanine Anything interesting so far?

@RamliJohn @TransistorFM Thank you!

@azhawkes - illegally reopening the Freemont factory
- tweeting COVID misinformation
- firing workers who wanted to stay home (after saying he wouldn’t)

@MoreWillie You gotta change your license plate to

DRTY TSLA

@jbibla @jongold Compared to VISA transactions, ETH still seems to require orders of magnitude more energy per transaction?

https://digiconomist.net/ethereum-energy-consumption/

@corey_gwin lol. You deserve a medal for this Corey. 🥇🏅🎖

@DanielZarick Not as good as an ice cream stand on a busy beach, but still worth trying. 😉

@Shpigford Let me restate this, and see if it changes your framing:

“Scientists say climate change is a problem and we need to *act* now, collectively, in order to save the planet.”

How can we, as humans, come to a consensus in a reasonable amount of time, in order to act?

@mhetreramesh It’s still a good question.

In your case, the answer to “what have you done to solve the problem?” is “complain.”

It’s still a good indicator of how much momentum there is towards change.

@volkandkaya @TransistorFM 👍

@campedersen Happy to chat about that on Twitter Spaces/voice if you want to have a calm discussion.

I think it's OK to critique tech that has the potential to negatively affect our planet.

What's not OK is non-makers (people who don't build things) criticizing the indies who do.

@dceddia cc @seanwes

@StephenAfamO Thanks!

@natekontny @TransistorFM Hahaha. @jonbuda and I were just working on that and we're like... "Nobody needs this on mobile, right?"

Desktop only for now. I'll fix it on mobile for you soon. 😉

@natekontny @TransistorFM Fixed it! I think?

https://transistor.fm/

@GerardTaCl @TransistorFM Fixed it! I think?

@SamPodlogar @TransistorFM Fixed it! I think?

@derrickreimer @Google Just emailed them. 👍

@mmmykolas Nice! 🙌

@yongfook Nice! 🙌

@sifex @TransistorFM Yeah. What’s causing that flicker?
