  • I do not want to platform Jack Dorsey on this stage. To that end, I am organizing a sit-in, in which I and anyone who will join me are going to sit ourselves down on the Janson stage during his allocated time slot and peacefully prevent the talk from proceeding as scheduled. We will be meeting at 11:45 AM outside of Janson, 15 minutes prior to Dorsey’s scheduled time slot. Once the stage is free from the previous speaker, we will sit on the stage until 12:30 PM.

    I’ve recently been on YCombinator’s co-founder matching service (for people looking to create a startup). It’s taught me SO much about writing good emails.

    Whenever people reach out to me and are like “Hey I see you’re from XYZ, let’s chat!” I instantly reject the invite. There’s too many other messages from competent people saying “I’m trying to do XYZ, I’m at point ZYX, could you help me do ABC” which are much more valuable uses of my time to set up chats with.






  • I cross posted this to Hacker News (which is very pro-CEO and big corpo) and it’s now rank 1 on the front page, lmao. People really support this guy

    (And it’s funny because in the comments, people are seething “Nooooo he’s not popular, look at these polls that show he has 13% approval!!”)
