Don’t add 5 income streams when you haven’t mastered one.
→ One offer
→ One funnel
→ One repeatable result
Multiplying noise multiplies headaches.
Compound what converts.
One first. Then many.

Simple businesses win because they’re easy to run and easy to buy from.
→ Clear offer
→ Clear audience
→ Clear delivery
Complexity is where profit goes to die.
Keep it simple. Scale it big.

More experimentation today! This time it started with a pretty bad photo of the stairs from the front of Villa Spada and then I asked myself "What would happen if we added more stairs?" - so that's what happened!
It's not completely symmetrical but it's close enough for me! The stars you see in the centre are from a bad astrophotography attempt a few months ago!

Scale’s dominance would pose a growing challenge to companies that sought to follow a different model and pay living wages.

Continued thread
One group of eight workers in North Africa said Scale reduced their pay by more than a third in a matter of months. At least one worker was left with negative pending payments, suggesting that he owed Scale money. When the group attempted to organize against the changes, the company threatened to ban anyone engaging in “revolutions and protests.”

This defense of #statusquo and #incrementalism as the ONLY way forward is jaw-dropping in its complete denial of the #urgency and #scale of #climatechange

United States · Scale AI Layoffs Hit GenAI Team After $14 Billion Meta Deal - United StatesScale AI just laid off approximately 200 full-time employees (14% of its 1,400-person workforce) and 500 contractors, according to the company.
Can anyone recommend a modern body weight scale that is accessible, either via self-voicing, or bluetooth connection? If via self-voicing, anything that doesn't shout the measured weight so loud, that anyone within 500 feet can hear it? Anyone who has used these products in the past will most certainly be aware that the "blind equals deaf" stereotype that is clearly pervasive in the overwhelming majority of these products. I'm hoping there is something out there that does not make this assumption, and has a volume adjustment beyond mute and yell.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Caution - Nerdiness
So I was watching Sean Carrol talk about scale in terms of energy in electron volts.. from a neutrino at possibly around 10^-3 ev to 10^37 ev.. the top of the Planck scale at around a freight train's energy.
So Im thinkin..well.. freight train isnt so much.. but then..thats
**for every particle** like.. a few drops of water has trillions..

"Heel veel bureaus hebben gewoon #geen #merk", en dus is enige vorm van internationale #expansie bij voorbaat al een mission impossible, aldus Victor Knaap, medeoprichter van Monks. 
"Wij hebben als Monks
25 jaar lang aan brand building gedaan. Voor ons eigen merk. Doe je dat als Nederlands bureau niet, dan ben je een relatief onbekende speler. En als je dan ook nog eens nergens heel goed in bent, dan is de kans op buitenlands 
succes heel ver weg...."Dat is best zonde, want de uurtarieven liggen er vaak ook nog eens hoger dan hier? "Klopt, en wij hebben het #voordeel dat wij hebben best wel handig zijn met lean en mean budgetten. Dus als jij op één of andere manier een ander land weet te openen dat groter is: Engeland
, de US... Met een #goede #propositie. Dan ligt er echt wel groei voor je in het verschiet, mits je een sterk merk bent.""Het is net zoals met tv-shows in ons land. Als het hier werkt, werkt het elders ook."
Benieuwd hoe dit gesprek verder ging? Of hoe onze tafelgasten (Anneke Keller, ex-CTO PostNL/Wehkamp/Coolblue) tegen deze en onderstaande issues aankijken?
* Wordt het ‘Europa Digital First’ voor bedrijven?
* Staart de board zich blind op AI?
* En: duwt private-equity bureaus naar de afgrond?
