Last month I did the unthinkable and finally threw out that box of unloved cables that I've dragged with me through adulthood. Today I realised that I needed one of them and have no idea how to find a replacement. CONSIDER THIS A WARNING TO YOU ALL

@HarryStebbings hosted @iambangaly for a 🔥interview. I loved the definition for growth Bangaly brings - reducing barriers to adoption so that people can find value By 1) expanding the audience, or 2) deepen the engagement. 100% worth listening to 👌

The Growth Paradox Growth takes a much longer time coming than you think, and then it happens much faster than you ever would have thought. Growth happens gradually, then suddenly. When you realize this, you start to do things differently.

Long @popshop_live and the live streaming market in the US.
Still crazy to me that two live-streamers in China (Lipstick King and Viya) did over $3B of GMV combined in 12 hours earlier this year. The entire live commerce industry in the US is <$10B/yr
