This is the most brilliant and clear recollection of WWII by someone who wasn’t there. Highly recommend a listen.

If you’re a politician promoted to Ministerial roles, it should come with the requirement of shadowing the people you’re responsible for representing (Doctors, Farmers, Entrepreneurs, etc). Then use that network as a sound board. Not industry bodies and associations.

A bunch of legends who pioneered support on the internet and then were not afraid to rip it all up and play to win much bigger. So cool to watch.
This is a story about how we rebooted a 15 year old decelerating business to be on course to be the fastest growing large software company in the world in four quarters from today… :). The Q1 Intercom board meeting starts in one hour. Q1 FY26 was the largest quarter by net new

Convinced Ryanair’s “queue outside till you appreciate us” policy is just some sick cabin crew fetish

There's no better time than now to look at us for your employee's benefits or apply for one of our many open roles.

Funding round announcements can be a lot of overly projective nonsense. You spend a lot of time talking about the 'Why', but not enough about the 'How'. The 'How' at Kota is the people and the culture; it's first-class and ready for anything –– it's infectious, and I love it.

In the last 6-months, we've grown orders of magnitude; we've released products empowering an industry in Kota Embed, secured Central Bank Authorisation which means we will have coverage across 30 countries, and now wrapped up our Series A.

We just closed our $14.5m Series A and I've never felt more fired up about what we're building at @kota_benefits.

€7m a year for 15 years to maintain an old payroll system is one hell of a gig.

Tried this the other day - probably the coolest piece of consumer tech I've used in years. Well done @eoincambay 👏.

Saying goodbye to our very pretty Dublin office as we grow out of it. For any Irish startups looking for a new home, an ideal space for a team of less than 8 that comes into the office. Lwr Baggot St. DM for details.

Incredibly, there was no authority on hand to stop the groping
The news this week is giving me immense confidence that governments are doing all they can to solve our most critical issues.

This is what you do to your enemies, not your trade partners. Short term, strongman nonsense. With the evaporation of trust, wait for the other side to build walls and fire back accordingly.
Sometimes the best strategy in a negotiation is convincing the other side that you are crazy.
