RT @rohanpaul_ai: “Twitter solves no one’s problem at all. It was something we wanted to use. It was something we wanted to see in the world. It was something we wanted to use on a daily basis, and that’s all that drove us. That’s what got us up every single morning, and that’s what made it meaningful.”

-- Jack Dorsey on why building something for yourself can be better than trying to solve a problem

Jack Dorsey on why building something for yourself can be better than trying to solve a problem

When a 29 year old Jack Dorsey joined the podcasting startup Odeo, he soon learned that no one there really cared about podcasting either:

“That was one of Odeo’s biggest failures. We were not building tools for us. We were building tools for other people.”

As Odeo struggled, the team began to look for new ideas, and Jack presented his idea for Twitter. Somewhat counterintuitively, the product would not solve a specific problem:

“Twitter solves no one’s problem at all. It was something we wanted to use. It was something we wanted to see in the world. It was something we wanted to use on a daily basis, and that’s all that drove us. That’s what got us up every single morning, and that’s what made it meaningful.”

It turns out there were more people like Jack and the Odeo team who wanted to use it to.

“I think that is one of the biggest lessons I learned—Twitter did not start as a company. Twitter started as a product within another company that was failing. And to me, this really emphasized the fact that entrepreneurship is not necessarily starting a new company. It’s actually just taking significant risk to build what you want to see in the world.”

Senator Bernie Sanders has said:

"The US needs a strong military, but we do not need a defense system that is designed to make huge profits for a handful of giant defense contractors."

Sanders is one of the few senators who we have not seen taking money from corporate PACs. https://t.co/SQPbvznr5k

"Most people think the future of the world will be defined by globalization, but the truth is that technology matters more. Without technological change, if China doubles its energy production over the next two decades, it will also double its air pollution. If every one of India’s hundreds of millions of households were to live the way Americans already do—using only today’s tools—the result would be environmentally catastrophic. Spreading old ways to create wealth around the world will result in devastation, not riches. In a world of scarce resources, globalization without new technology is unsustainable... Today our challenge is to both imagine and create the new technologies that can make the 21st century more peaceful and prosperous than the 20th."

Palantir $PLTR is stacking new all-time-highs. Cheering for the visionary investors who saw the potential early on🙌

That said, the short-term risk/reward is getting really unfavorable right now. A fantastic business, but an ugly valuation. https://t.co/6BpzroiRAp
