Weekly Recap #8
👋 Hey, Madhur here! Welcome to my Newsletter. I write about technology and lifestyle. Subscribe to my newsletter to receive all my posts directly in your inbox. Happy reading
This week, I decided to change the format a little bit. I spend a good amount of time on Twitter so I thought why don’t I share some tweets I found interesting and helpful
Great tweet by Louie, on how we can start very small. I feel this is the best way to start something, This also helps you get rid of your fear of showing yourself. And even if you fail at something, failure at very small levels doesn’t discourage you, it actually makes you strong and able to handle any new failures that can come in the future.
A very controversial tweet by Daniel went viral and got a lot of comments for For and Against. In my opinion, I think you need to understand what you are going into. I don’t think you should not join YC, but I do think you should know what you are getting into. Daniel has explained a lot of things in this tweet but again I think conscious choice is more important than following anybody’s advice. Do what is best for you and prioritize based on what you want.
This tweet by Issac is pretty interesting. I think this was the thinking of a lot of people. When Elon, increased the tweet length and started accepting long-form text, a lot of people, including Issac, were really critical and actually said that it would destroy Twitter. But that changed when they started seeing the impact of those long forms. I think there is a very good learning in that. I think sometimes following your guts, and not getting affected by negative comments from the public helps a lot and in the end, if it’s really a good decision, it pays off.
This was probably the most funny and unexpected tweet I saw this week. Hassan actually submitted a one-page book to the Kindle bookstore and if you follow the tweet, it got accepted too. This is quite funny. Well if you want to try and sell a book with one page, you technically can. Try it out.
Seattle saw a pretty cool Solar Eclipse this week. Here’s a photo I really liked. Even though it was partly cloudy, a lot of people saw a good crescent eclipse.
That’s all for this week folks. I hope this was interesting and if you have any comments or other interesting things to share, feel free to put in comments
