At scale, all B2B products converge. It’s reports, alerts, workflow, permissions and approvals all the way down.

In B2B “build something people want” often turns into “build all the custom reports that Jerry on the finance team at {customer} thinks he wants”

Let me tell you, coups are this man’s specialty.

Democrat propagandists have been talking about a fake coup for over 3 years so now they’re frantic to deny that a real one has occurred. President-elect Biden was in no danger of being deposed on January 6, 2021 but he was actually deposed as Democratic Party nominee on July 21,

We’re all going to pay more in taxes to fund Sack’s exit from his crypto positions.

Rippling sued @deel today. Our lawsuit alleges Deel cultivated a spy at Rippling & orchestrated a long-running trade-secret theft. The spy searched “deel” in our systems 23 times per day on avg, letting him spy on Deel’s own customers who were considering a switch to Rippling.

When I was attacked relentlessly post-Zenefits, @sama went to my prev investors and put himself on the line to stop it. I didn't know he was doing it until after it happened. There are so many stories of him swooping in to help others - hope he gets tons of support.

Companies that acqui-hire small startups should start disclosing what certain VC firms do, at the finish line, to shiv the founders for a few bucks after things didn't work out. It would shock you. And it's always exactly the firms you'd expect.

We (Rippling) discovered yesterday that Silicon Valley Bank had unexpected solvency challenges. Just now, we learned that the FDIC had stepped in and effectively shut down SVB.

I dunno if you were going to create a bunch of fake votes in the 2020 election, California would have been the dumbest state imaginable to pick for that.

The way this will play out is a competitor will raise a ton of financing, invest more deeply in R&D, build a better product, and absolutely crush this guy with sales and marketing. You have to play the game on the field.

The founder of a top YC company in the current batch on Venture Capital: "People used to climb Everest and they needed oxygen. Today, people climb it without oxygen. I want to summit Everest and use as little oxygen (VC) as possible." Vibe shift.

I hope we don't forget @pmarca 's grand proclamation about the "economic coiled spring" that would be unleashed with a Trump presidency.

Never before has an hour of Presidential rhetoric cost so many people so much. Markets continue to move after my previous tweet. The best estimate of the loss from tariff policy is now is closer to $30 trillion or $300,000 per family of four.

That’s an interesting question. Does anyone know if SF had a housing shortage problem before the broad availability of robotaxis a few months ago?

This would be true only if prospects had infinite and eternal willingness to seek out your product. But they don’t, so you need to re-articulate their pain back to them at the right moments, which is the core of marketing and sales.

Deel filed their response to Rippling today. In hundreds of pages filings, what stands out is what's missing. Nowhere does Deel dispute our central allegation - that @Bouazizalex personally recruited a spy to steal rippling's trade secrets, and personally directed the theft.
