New tech drinking game:

* Whenever someone 3+ levels above you in the org chart says "macroeconomic", take a drink.
* Whenever a company has layoffs, followed by a stock buy-back, chug.

Please sub "drink/chug" for whatever your preferred pleasant substance is. Maybe some nice tea if you don't partake.

Also adjust the "3+ levels" based on how flat your company is; I'm a senior IC and I'm 7 levels(!) below CEO.

An interesting article which led me down a farm subsides rabbit hole which ended up in "labor buffer stock" and "job guarantee" #macroeconomic theories.

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/26/opinion/rural-voters-economy.html

An economy "cools down" when workers have less money, which means that the prices offered for goods and services go down, as fewer workers have less money to spend. As with every #macroeconomic policy, raising interest rates has "#DistributionalEffects," which is #economist-speak for "winners and losers."

3) #FDI has also been low as a share of #foreign financing sources - this matters because #FDI is a relatively stable financing source, bringing #macroeconomic stability.

The #gdp #growth #estimates for FY 23 are in.

#India is set to cede the fastest growing major #economy tag to #saudiarabia, with the #indianeconomy growing at 7%, and the latter at 7.6%.

The advance estimates also point to a "challenging" #year ahead, with #global #macroeconomic headwinds taking their toll on #economic #output.

More so if the #ukrainewar drags on, and if #china continues to #decelerate.

Indeed, as I write here https://rammohansusarla.in/2022/06/22/no-matter-the-spin-dark-clouds-are-looming-over-the-indian-economy-in-what-can-be-a-monsoon-of-storms/, there are "dark clouds" on the horizon.

Interesting article by Noah Smith that I just got around to reading: https://noahpinion.substack.com/p/the-third-magic

Central thesis is that #machinelearning techniques are providing us a way to harness complex phenomena such as protein folding or #macroeconomic business cycles. This process is different enough from traditional scientific inquiry that it's worth evaluating AI's strengths and weakness differently that traditional scientific method.

Is the #indianeconomy a "lone" bright spot amidst #global #gloom, or is #India's #economic #growth a "mirage"?

While #india is indeed the fastest growing major #economy, it is hobbled by several #structural weaknesses, leaving it "vulnerable" to #external and #internal #macroeconomic shocks.

#2023predictions point to a #crisis waiting to happen.

Re post and the original question, my sense is that this isn't a great #macroeconomic time for start-ups. So unless they're really just trying to *replace* twitter (which seems like lightning in a bottle any way you cut it), I'm not bullish on private VC social media, new or otherwise, ATM.

Souring #macroeconomic conditions and #monetary-policy tightening have led some commentators to warn of an impending mega-crisis. Yet there is ample evidence to suggest that such a disaster is neither inevitable nor even the most likely near-term scenario.
