I recently left Stripe after 4.5 formative and magical years. Some reflections on what made working at Stripe feel different than working other places:
1/Turpentine
2/Writing
3/Meticulousness
4/Principled decision-making
5/Ambition
6/Talking up
7/The API metaphor

Great Thread on Quality & Contrarianism

Spend more time on differences in operating model (or business model) and nuanced patterns associated with high returns (example small % of customer costs but mission critical) vs general 'moats', ie spend more time on the actual operating intricacies

How John Malone invented the SaaS business model extensive tweetstorm. Worth the read.

My Tweetstorm on how Malone invented the SaaS business model will appear in serial format over the weekend. It is intended to be an antidote against people who don't understand when the model works and when it doesn't. The antidote works against both promoters and detractors.

1/n The secret of higher education: colleges are actually HIGHLY effective at their true purpose(s)
