Every time BS announces a deal, people conflate equity value and enterprise value (and thus ARR multiples). The easiest way to remember it: if you bought a $50 jacket that has a $20 bill in the pocket, the jacket is "worth" $30. That's enterprise value (value of the operations). If the company has debt, then think of it as an IOU in the other pocket!
BREAKING: we've officially entered a deal to acquire Miro for $1.355B! 😍

Paradox: the opportunity cost of not writing code has never been higher, while the time to build a good product has never been lower.
When I did office hours with this startup in the middle of August, I told them their product was already good enough and that they should stop writing code for now and just focus entirely on acquiring customers. They listened!

After more than a year of labor, my book 𝘏𝘪𝘥𝘥𝘦𝘯 𝘔𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘪𝘱𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘴 has launched! It's all my best ideas -- and best writing -- on how to grow your company with your existing budget and team. And yes, I read the audiobook myself. :-) 𝗕𝘂𝘆 𝗱𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁: You can buy cheaper bundles directly from me -- Kindle and Audiobook, or those plus the physical book -- from hiddenmultipliers.com 𝗕𝘂𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗺𝗮𝘇𝗼𝗻: It is available in paperback, Kindle, and Audible: tinyurl.com/hiddenmultiplier… 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀: Skills that implement the ideas in the book as well as articles, more added all the time, at skills.asmartbear.com/ I'm so proud of this and grateful to the many people who helped along the way, reading early drafts, challenging my ideas, and encouraging me to do it, and the 750 people who preordered the book, trusting that it would be worth it. All your feedback and ideas are welcome, as usual! (P.S. You know this already, but 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄𝘀 and 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 is extremely appreciated!)

I can’t think of a worse allocation of time in the last five years than refactoring ugly code that worked fine 🙂

Curious (genuine) how Vanguard has AI-proofed their voice ID You can login to your account just by saying "At Vanguard, my voice is my password" How is it not spoofable?
Today, we’re launching Bland Speech v3 - The world's first Human Speech Engine. In @designarena’s Audio Realism benchmark, Speech v3 is the top model, outranking Elevenlabs, Grok, Cartesia, and OpenAI. Trained on over 100 million real, human conversations: businesses, developers, and creators can now create any audio they can imagine. To showcase this, we used 5 seconds of old footage to help James, a 49 year old father who recently suffered a stroke, get his voice back. Try it for free at bland.ai/speech Full length documentary below🧵

Perfect job for @LukeFarritor 📜

I’ve asked the SpaceXAI team to preserve any rare books in a library and scan them the hard way vs just cutting off the spine and scanning
