After HOURS on phone, I'm posting to express deeply grave concerns about @Google's (@madebygoogle) inability to manage unauthorized users who have ADMIN access to your #GoogleHome including security cameras, thermostats, and @googlefiber. Insane lack of support and secops.🤯@FTC

Great piece. Behave today with the urgency you would if you were running out of cash. I have seen that extra motor. It does exist. And Ravi is 💯 right - the extra cash many companies have does us a disservice. It causes us to relax. Big mistake. x.com/guptark22/status/16382…

Some background: I took a deep dive (note: sponsored) alongside the @firstdollarinc team to understand:
• The current state of health benefits; and
• First Dollar's value prop for third party administrators, health plans, and how things are improving for the end consumer.

Looking back, my cold @LinkedIn connection inbounds consisted of:
1. Outsourcing firms of all types
2. Exec/candidate recruiters
3. Startup advisors with no ops experience
4. Shady investment funds
5. Quality sales/biz dev connections that I actually value

Love this thoughtful post by @msuster on #valuations forth and #startup excitement. While 0-1 is always hard, the recipe to sustain is simple: build value, manage your economics, and stay lean. You'll come out stronger. 💪 bothsidesofthetable.com/pray…

Excited to see @CityofGalveston thriving. Grew up spending weekends along the strand, sometimes sleeping in our cars to surf in the am. Hotel Lucine includes a restoration of Galveston's history and offers a boutique, beach-side experience w/ amazing food. hotellucine.com

Now is a great time for @austintexasgov to review our building codes. 1) why do we 'penalize' artificial turf as impervious coverage? 2) why are we not rewarding water capture systems? I'm all for natural xeriscaping but it's not conductive to using your yard for play/kids.
