lamron tnsi jy_deed (@Deed_YJ) reported@myhopeworldian_ Yes and it’s horrible! I had to authenticate twice once by text and then by email. I was like wtf is happening?!? I’ve talked with other people who weren’t having to do any of that though so I thought it was an issue with my PayPal acct somehow.

Matt Hunter (@MattHunterCoach) reportedThe best decision PayPal ever made came out of a fierce disagreement between its two top leaders. Max Levchin wanted to send money between Palm Pilots. Peter Thiel saw limited market potential and said so, clearly and directly. Neither backed down easily. Neither softened the message for the sake of harmony. Out of that clash came a pivot to email money transfers that eventually led to a $1.5 billion acquisition by eBay. When talented people argue honestly toward the truth, great things happen.

Nekt0 (@Nekt_0) reportedElon Musk in 2007, after the PayPal exit: His test for starting a company was simple: if it succeeds, does it matter to the world? He had enough money to retire. Instead, he chose 3 problems: the internet, sustainable energy and making humanity multi-planetary. SpaceX was still trying to become a "trucking company" to orbit. Tesla was selling an expensive Roadster so cheaper electric cars could follow. At the time, rockets and EVs looked like two unrelated ways to burn money. The strategy was the same: prove the impossible version first, then make it scalable. Most founders start with a market and search for a mission afterward. Musk started with missions large enough to justify risking the money.
