You can move yourself around, and only hear and see people around you.

1/ I'm insanely excited to announce what I've been working on for the last year:
Teamflow, a virtual office that makes you feel like a team again. Coming out of stealth and announcing our $3.9M seed round today 🎉🎉🎉

Everybody can see and use them together — so you can meet around your sprint board in the morning for standup.
- one room for a project launch, with tasks, metrics dashboard…
- one room for each 1:1 with your meeting notes
- one game room with a bunch of online games

We had an outage one day. Not my 1st, but remote made this one especially painful — jumping from Zoom to Zoom to coordinate ops, marketing, eng…
Fast forward 2 years, Covid hit, and the entire world is feeling the same pain.
A downside of remote work is that we can't casually learn from each other they way we could in an office. The effects of such interactions are huge: Lunch meetings between two salespeople where they discussed sales approaches boosted revenues for both by 24% for months after! pic.twitter.com/lPVUaB1YeH

Users are raving about us — we receive this kind of message every single day. Our latest NPS is 67 (compared to Zoom's 21 per @usefyi)
Spent the last 2 months recruiting 13hrs a day, and it's really paid off. We hired the 1 best designer and 3 best engineers I've ever met \u2014 this is honestly going to be the best team I've ever worked with. This is what my funnel and a normal day looked like pic.twitter.com/kXDy6o65OD

I'll see you at the office! :)
Zoom seems to me like the Hipchat of enterprise video conference: the meh implementation of a very needed product. Who\u2019s building Zoom\u2019s Slack?

Every single time I set foot in every store/restaurant/place of business in Latin America. Only if they are not completely ignoring me from jump. Or following me bc obviously I came to carry out my plans to rob a store that is approximately 2 sq ft. big.
The part that’s also relevant is I’m oftentimes viewed as respectable-negro adjacent in the dominant culture imaginary. So what of those who are never identified as such? I always think about that. I get surveyed & harassed bad...yet and still there’s levels to the profiling.
When I have to do errands in Panama City, I make sure to apply makeup, perfume, an outfit with cleavage, or booty emphasis, heels and an “expensive” purse. There are STARK differences in the service and treatment I get when I do this vs. when I don’t. STARK. Pero, *STARK.*
LatinAmerica is psychotic in identifying who has money and who doesn’t based on how they are dressed, and how they imagine, carrying themselves. An “elegantly dressed” Black person will face less violence on an errand-run versus one who isn’t. This isn’t absolute so sit down plis
And then the times when I am dressed super-revealing. All of the help and care in the world from male workers. The same white mestizo men who would ordinarily follow me to “prevent theft” are happily helping me find things. Again, race, color, gender, class and more.
That \u201chere\u2019s a White customer, they\u2019re automatically more important\u2014despite the fact neither have you spent money yet so I can\u2019t even claim a paying customer is more important than a browsing customer\u2014so lemme interrupt helping you to go to them\u201d thing just happened to me again.

THREAD: 12 Things Everyone Should Know About IQ
1. IQ is one of the most heritable psychological traits – that is, individual differences in IQ are strongly associated with individual differences in genes (at least in fairly typical modern environments). https://t.co/3XxzW9bxLE
2. The heritability of IQ *increases* from childhood to adulthood. Meanwhile, the effect of the shared environment largely fades away. In other words, when it comes to IQ, nature becomes more important as we get older, nurture less. https://t.co/UqtS1lpw3n
3. IQ scores have been increasing for the last century or so, a phenomenon known as the Flynn effect. https://t.co/sCZvCst3hw (N ≈ 4 million)
(Note that the Flynn effect shows that IQ isn't 100% genetic; it doesn't show that it's 100% environmental.)
4. IQ predicts many important real world outcomes.
For example, though far from perfect, IQ is the single-best predictor of job performance we have – much better than Emotional Intelligence, the Big Five, Grit, etc. https://t.co/rKUgKDAAVx https://t.co/DWbVI8QSU3
5. Higher IQ is associated with a lower risk of death from most causes, including cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, most forms of cancer, homicide, suicide, and accident. https://t.co/PJjGNyeQRA (N = 728,160)
