Yet when I now compare his essay to bsky's proposed one-way dataflow (PDS --> BGS --> labeller --> AppView/FeedGen --> PDS), then a different question arises ...

Starting small doesn't mean you're limiting yourself. It means you're giving yourself the opportunity to iterate and improve along the way. #iteration #startsmall #processimprovement

@GuideStarUSA@twitter.com We also applied for a grant from @jack@twitter.com #startsmall project so hopefully we hear back from them. 🤞

I like tor but the DOS attack that made it unusable for weeks on end proved that it's not realistic to rely on it. My wallet could not connect to my node. We need that I2p or whatever it's called.

"As far as the free and open social media protocol goes, there are many competing projects: @bluesky is one with the AT Protocol, Mastodon another, Matrix yet another…and there will be many more. (..) #startsmall grants: 'open internet development.' It will start with a focus of giving cash and equity grants to engineering teams (..) I’ll make some grants next week, starting with $1mm/yr to Signal. Please let me know other great candidates for this money."

Dorsey: "To accelerate open internet and protocol work, I’m going to open a new category of #startsmall grants: “open internet development.” It will start with a focus of giving cash and equity grants to engineering teams working on social media and private communication protocols, bitcoin, and a web-only mobile OS. I’ll make some grants next week, starting with $1mm/yr to Signal. Please let me know other great candidates for this money."

@Micah
Jack just announced this, “I’m going to open a new category of #startsmall grants: ‘open internet development,’” he said. “It will start with a focus of giving cash and equity grants to engineering teams working on social media and private communication protocols, bitcoin, and a web-only mobile OS.” Yeah, whatever pal.

Instead of starting with the data itself, every business should start with strategy. To create a robust data and analytics strategy, business leaders need to consider many factors, including the challenges of implementation.

I’m moving $1B of my Square equity (~28% of my wealth) to #startsmall LLC to fund global COVID-19 relief. After we disarm this pandemic, the focus will shift to girl’s health and education, and UBI.

It is 23rd week of workout. I started on #aprilfoolsday this year with 1 push up/day and I have been increasing the number of pushups by 1 every week. I will continue increasing the daily goal until it reaches 50.
I have just done 23 pushups and last few were the worst. I blame myself for skipping few weeks in the middle. Catching up was difficult.
