Regardless of how smart you are, the more you tweet the likelihood that you tweet something incredibly stupid approaches certainty.
It's either very comforting or very terrifying to realize that literally everyone is incredibly stupid at times.

As startups grow there is extremely strong pull into what I call the death spiral of bullshit.
