Foursquare was acquired last month. The outcome was disappointing. It's taken me a while to write this, but I think I'm finally done grieving it. Here are some thoughts on our final years, an effort to honor the team who helped build & maintain FSQ's legacy, and my attempt to finally get some closure. teendrama.substack.com/p/som…

Replying to @davidmarcus
@davidmarcus knows a thing or two about disparate financial systems. He used to spend his time building them at PayPal. But now he's dedicated his life to connecting these disparate financial systems from around the world using stablecoins. You can learn more by listening to the full episode on Spotify or YouTube.

Get fascinated with @donttrythis through his journey back in time! The California Academy of Sciences' expedition to the Galapagos Islands in 1905, the resilience shown after the 1906 earthquake, and curator Alice Eastwood's heroism in preserving over 1,500 type specimens - a true testament to scientific dedication and legacy. This was filmed at Ignite SF near the @testedcom HQ. #sciencehistory #IgniteTalksSF17 #IgniteTalks #AdamSavageTested #AdamSavage youtu.be/jwSMaIRybdY

I have had private meetings with both @DrOz and @JohnFetterman. They have both sat on my couch. Oz cares about one thing only: fame and attention. Fetterman understands what Pennsylvania really needs and has integrity and real family values.
