Trying something new:
Started a Discord Server for Startup Founders & Mentors: Startup Pods.
Instead of one big community, it is split into a bunch of smaller groups (pods) each with 25 startups max.
Come join and reserve your spot in a Pod👇

Quick team update:
We lost our main developer for the time being as they take some time away. I'm working on onboarding a new developer so there will most likely be some delay in fixing bugs you are running into.
DM us or me directly at @_justirma with any Q's.
Thank you 🙏🏽
Stoked to be included! Thanks for having us :)

I really do think that "fractional" roles are going to become a thing. More and more people are leaving their jobs and exploring what's next.
Having an option to work 5-10 hours/week for 3 companies instead of full-time 40 for 1 company is pretty appealing.
Congrats on the launch! 🎉
Launched @indie_worldwide on Product Hunt 🎉

Since today is juneteenth, here's pdf copy of W.E.B. Du Bois's chapter, "The Propaganda of History," from Black Reconstruction. Extremely relevant today since Du Bois confronts the whitewashing of the history of slavery, emancipation, and Reconstruction. shs.terra-hn-editions.org/Co…
Shocked when I read about @MorganStanley this morning and how they're requiring almost all employees to return to the office or they'll be receiving pay cuts. Waaat.

Enterprise companies should be leading the way in how the future of work is shaped. But I believe this move isn't forward thinking and actually hurts culture, motivation, mental health, and retention of employees.
Companies it's time to adapt quickly or hiring and retention is going to become very difficult.
I keep saying it: COMPANIES DON’T HAVE A CHOICE
In a knowledge economy, companies are the people they employ
If talent wants remote work, you have to give it to them or you lose your best people and can’t attract others
Welcome to the future @Deloitte
