Hey @kairyssdal.bsky.social I just listened to your Friday show and you said it's been 20 years. Congratulations on that anniversary. It's no exaggeration to say that listening to Marketplace changed my life, helping me navigate a move from anthropology to business and finance. I appreciate you.

of course he hit an early 2 run homer and later singled and scored the winning run ... because of course he did.

do you ever publish look-backs on your prior draft boards, 5-10 years down the road? It would be interesting to see how your evaluations have evolved after gaining more years of experience etc

Confederacy of Dunces ?

Remember when they had nearly infinite resources because money was free and they sold the dream of blockchain startups, NFT trading cards, fought over who could give money to SBF fastest, etc?

They got exposed; now they are very rich and very mad and looking for revenge against those that noticed.

Beyond the obvious 1) embarrassing themselves to infinity and 2) being very angry that their workers started being demanding rather than meekly bowing to their every want and need.

The SV crowd showed themselves to be total morons that year by losing zillions of dollars with crypto scams, NFT hype, getting high off their own farts in Clubhouse chats etc and for the first time everyone pointed and laughed; now they pretend other things about that period were radicalizing
