@JuniLearning uses Claude to power their Juni Tutor Bot on Discord, an online tutoring solution. @vivianmshen says, “We evaluated Anthropic against competitors, and for our use case and implementation we chose to incorporate Claude based on its helpful, high-quality responses.”

The best parenting advice I've ever gotten.
From some of history’s greatest thinkers and parents:

87% of my parenting consists of me asking myself ‘what would Bluey’s parents do?’

Parenting is a life-long thankless job. Nobody retires from it. Don’t let anyone pressure you into having kids until you are ready.

Founders: hire for culture fits first. Early employees have a major impact.
At @junilearning we look for: ownership & risk taking.
What do you look for?

As soon as they could understand we taught our kids concepts of scarcity, opportunity costs, interest, etc as part of daily life. We tried allowance divided into spend/save/share but never stuck to it. Then in HS we do a formal financial literacy class to make sure all is covered

When I first started working on @JuniLearning, I gave myself 6 months to see if my idea was viable.
I took to the streets. I handed out flyers. I got a few customers. I tutored them myself.
The week before my self-imposed 6 month deadline was up, we got into @ycombinator.

Curiosity lends permission to be creative, to challenge the status quo and to do our best work.

Founders + CEO's are undervaluing culture. That approach is making it harder for them to hire top-tier talent.
I’ve enacted a curiosity-forward culture at @JuniLearning that encourages creativity, honesty, and collaboration.
Here's how 🧵

My startup, @JuniLearning, teaches kids real life skills (that we don’t think they should have to wait until adulthood to learn).
Think: investing, entrepreneurship, cryptocurrency, the art of negotiation.
What topics do you think kids deserve to learn young?

It was my absolute honor to have @vivianmshen, founder of @JuniLearning on the podcast. @JamalCrook & I shared stories of how this @ycombinator alumni launched this amazing learning platform & community.

Did you have the skills to evaluate startups before you were out of high school? We didn't. Team, traction, product-market fit—@junilearning's making it make sense for the TikTok generation, with kids picking startups on our platform for @vivianmshen's portfolio.

Entrepreneurship doesn't have an age requirement.
At @JuniLearning, I encourage students as young as 7 to start their own businesses.
This isn't a crazy idea. The best way to learn, is to do.
These are the businesses I recommend they start (with parental supervision) 🧵
