@backblaze We've emailed Elton, Mike, and Terry.

File transfers to you folks are taking a really long time.

@nickjmauro @GIPHY Whoa! Nice! 🙌

@olaakinbiyi @david_nge I think a lot of us are more open.

We’ve been through some shit, come out the other side, and realized what was important.

@MoreWillie Wow!

@susanthesquark Nice! Congrats!

@speakguarani Oh definitely.

I feel like I’ve (finally) figured out a way of learning programming that works for me.

And, as aforementioned, I’m learning tons about my internal mental & emotional health. 👍

@jonathanstark I like this.

@heysirajum I had multiple crises in my 30s. It was definitely a hard decade.

I think I made it a lot harder on myself because I didn’t evaluate some of my foundational beliefs sooner.

@chadkoh Happy anniversary!

@ethananderson @PhillipChaffee @m1guelpf It was gradual, but by the time was 34-35 I was completely done.

@nora3000 congrats on producing 500 incredible episodes of @sparkcbc! 🙌

@vernbot Nice! Getting out in the snow.

(We’ve just been hiding inside watching Netflix and playing Minecraft)

@tim_abell Yes! I listened to your podcast episode on this. 👍

@EliusSantos The biggest daily practice for me is walking about 1 hour a day, and limiting calories (typically skipping breakfast, drinking black coffee and water in the morning and not eating in the afternoon until I’m hungry).

@MoreWillie Crap! Sorry to hear that

@PhillipChaffee @m1guelpf @AdamMGrant *still making the transition.

Thanks!

@nickfrosty My knees are good!

I don’t jog though. Snowboarding, cycling, walking, squats.

@mjwhansen Most of those hikes are within the last 4 years. Lots of catching up to do.

@jonfriesen Oh man. All the things I’m struggling with now. Lol.

Again, this is probably dependent on your journey but this stuff: https://twitter.com/mijustin/status/1360707883587936256

@Aazarshad My physical health feels pretty good overall. A bit more stiff, but nothing major (yet).

I’ve found that daily exercise (walks) works the best for me.

@NimrodKramer Stiff! My lower back has been sore lately 😅

@maggerbo A bit, yeah. But not much.

@joxxnie I really got my bell rung the other day snowboarding, so... yes.

@AndamoHondo Lol.

Not me! But you will definitely be thinking more about how to improve your home.

@jongold My back just started hurting (and I’m 40).

Whenever I bend over to tie my boots I have to grunt now...

@iChris @chriscoyier @suenns @mattmcgee Yes.

@heyjoshwood @TransferWise Um. You forgot to include your referral code!

@earthlingworks @BrendanHufford @CasJam @JordanGal @JamesClear Yes. I think it is *a* factor, but it's by no means the *only* factor.

At a base level, customer demand for a product you're able to build and distribute effectively is what's needed.

@JohnHargrove 👍 yup

@robfitz Oh nice. I like this framing.

(I’d tweak it a bit to say “more meritocratic,” since your historic advantages like network contacts + financial cushion continue to play a role in success)

Is this from something you wrote?

Lol. Yup.

Do Clubhouse mods just never sleep? https://twitter.com/webby2001/status/1360043627280535566

@jtwebman More in the sense of still being indie, without (really) being beholden to anyone else.

@punchlinecopy No Rhythm is a Dancer?

https://youtu.be/KkhGkRahU6g

@RaulOnRails @joerogan There's a lot of passive engagement you get on podcasts.

Sure, right now there's a lot of "real-time" engagement on Clubhouse (and I love it too!), but the excitement (and engagement) with a new platform rarely lasts.

I think we should enjoy Clubhouse now (while it's hot).

@yusufgiftworks @dvassallo @TwitterSpaces Yup, I've already written about this here:

https://transistor.fm/spaces-clubhouse/

@debgotwired NICE

@saranosocks Nice! I like these attributes.

Can you give me examples of the no-code / design communities you've joined?

@saranosocks What do you feel is missing?

In terms of size, what seems ideal? What would you want the focus to be?

Would you like to see something on a different platform? (Discord, Slack, forums?

@theothercole I’ve been hearing it on podcasts lately. 🤔

@theothercole I just stated noticing that “double click” term being used. When did that start?

@jonhainstock @carrd Multiple examples in this thread:

I'd argue Crisp, WPengine, Endcrawl all did a version of this.

https://twitter.com/mijustin/status/1359229216391262208

@darkgoldblade01 @fhostingio Yes! There's likely a market for that. (Especially when the old options, like FlyWheel, have been acquired)

@RJMcCollam @spencerfry wait i thought spencer and i agreed that only one of us could tweet at a time

@N0RESP0NSE It really depends on the context, but if you're brand new (and untrusted) and you're charging more than a trusted incumbent, I think it's going to be harder to make sales.

@_JosephMcDade awww yeaaah 🔥

@kylegawley It has to be both "a lower price" and "more value."

@crisp_im is significantly less than Intercom, but I tried the product and everything feels really high quality.

This idea that consumers automatically determine something that is "low price" to be "low value" isn't true.

@0xholman I think there are opportunities in certain industries to offer niche software, for sure.

But even those need to be priced competitively.

For example, @endcrawl provides software for film credits. But a major draw has to be that it's faster + cheaper than doing it the old way.

@yarobagriy But wouldn't incumbents have better distribution and brand than a new startup?

@_mattdavidson I really like @podysseyapp for recommendations

@podcastharry That's @_JosephMcDade. He's great!

(We're getting songs from other composers as well)

@crunkilton22 @TransistorFM Thanks! 🙌

@darianrosebrook 12 years is a good run!

@xoelipedes @falexandrou That’s the old version.

New version is here: http://devmarketing.xyz

@HighFiveRPG My worry is that, with Clubhouse, they’re getting 2-3 millions daily active users, all spending significant time on the app.

Power users might be spending 8+ hours per day, but it’s not hard for the casual user to get sucked in for 2 hours per day.

@noahwbragg And, for now, those folks are being rewarded with tens of thousands of followers.

I can see why they do it.

@HighFiveRPG @jakecrowe Looks great! 🙌

@thekylemarshall ✊ Yup, it’s an (overly?) demanding medium.

@APKoponen And for long stretches of time!

@lesley_pizza @arvidkahl Really good episode. 👍

@spencerfry Noted.

(The $1.2b valuation is correct I believe)

@foundbryan @NicWondering agreed

@destraynor @emmetgibney Clubhouse feels more like a feature to me. (Like Stories)

@mikecodemonkey @adii http://lifeprofitability.com/

@Shpigford @drop Lubing Switches is the name of my new electronica band.

@AntoineMeunier_ fleets 😄

@ericnuzum Thanks for sharing my post!

@breakfastbybill Yup, Joe Rogan has been recording his podcast live (on YouTube) for years.

It’s how he got those (infamous) spontaneous moments with Elon.

@breakfastbybill @theandreboso @TwitterSpaces I've tried listening to a few https://capiche.fm/ calls after the fact (another app similar to Clubhouse).

The audio quality is almost unlistenable.

I'm sure some chats on Clubhouse (Elon) will be interesting enough after the fact... but at that point, it's just a podcast?

@alanklement Already, @TwitterSpaces is in beta.

@kvlly 💯

Yup, I agree.

@ZFleischmann @verge Well, @TwitterSpaces is already a thing.

We’ll see how that affects Clubhouse usage when it’s released to all Twitter users.

@HugoAmsellem 120,000 users in its first few weeks.

Read the press from back then. It feels eerily similar to how we’re all gushing about Clubhouse now.

@__tosh Philosophically we might be different here.

I don’t think you automatically get better quality when you reduce the friction.

@lesley_pizza Love it!

@StringStory Definitely.

@iChris This is the content I’m here for

@smithtimmytim Thanks for reading, sharing, and responding with your thoughts Tim!

@rosmiquel Thanks for sharing it Miquel!

@kjdevz It’s so good. 👍

@ericpaulgeorge Top of Moonbeam on the way to Attridge. 👍

@davidhemphill 🤣

@titusparr_ lol

@tylertringas And... the hedge funds are still winning. https://twitter.com/alexisgoldstein/status/1354605363287486466

@r00k Talk to @DCoulbourne!

@shaig @kwuchu My prediction: they won’t take off this year.

@ramsey Yes. And, as Alexis describes here, the hedge funds are still winning. https://twitter.com/alexisgoldstein/status/1354605363287486466

@myfriendjanine I also really appreciated Alexis’ piece:

@scottmathson @JackRhysider Yup. We’ve already seen this on YouTube.

When you own the “means of distribution” you can apply downard pressure on creators, who are forced to compete for a smaller and smaller piece of revenue.

@nikstep @ichverstehe @TransistorFM Update: wasn't able to replicate this bug.

@nikstep @ichverstehe @TransistorFM Hey! Testing this out now. 🎧

@StephenAfamO Yup. 🎯

@scottmathson @JamesCridland @HighFiveRPG @theDanielJLewis How do I join this Slack?

@SamHarrisOrg thanks for bringing us this conversation with @jgoldsto on inequality.

I found it hope inspiring!

@arithisandthat Hey! @TransistorFM will donate something. 👍

@OrchidBertelsen 💯
