Tech bros head to etiquette camp as Silicon Valley levels up its style
As Silicon Valley grows in power and prominence, some insiders say it’s time for the tech industry to remake its slobby image. An etiquette camp for founders showed how.

At a loss for where money is best spent to push back on the Trump regime's unlawful actions. Given to ACLU/legal funds/etc... but when court rulings are ignored? Where's the best bang for your buck these days?

this is honestly a great filter for everyone involved
LinkedIn post:

Cyrus Shirazi
CEO at Haven

My simple test for identifying A+ talent fast:
The Weekend Test.
I message candidates on weekends.
Not to be a jerk...
But because response time tells me everything I need to know about someone's level of obsession.
Fast response = you're in the game
Slow response = you're not obsessed enough
Simple as that.
This also applies to how we treat our customers.
At Haven, we've grown to 250+ customers in under a year because of our response times:
- Every customer gets an answer in < 3 minutes
- Every issue is our top priority
- Every deadline gets hit
That only happens when you build a team of obsessed people.
The Weekend Test finds them fast.
P.S. Some will call this toxic.
Others will get exactly why we do it.
Guess which ones we hire?
CEO Philip Brook and 65 others
