from Coder Caffeine · host Creds

On this episode of Coder Caffeine we decode an inspirational quote from Marc Lore, and provide a quick mental framework to go from a mindset of being too stubborn to pivot, to understanding that adapting your strategy along the way will yield the best outcomes. You'll also hear a powerful Mantra brought to you with a vast amount of mocha iced coffee based enthusiasm to power your day - all because we want you to be egoless about your progress, seize the strength of the pivot, and execute at the top of your game - just like Marc Lore! In 2005, Marc Lore faced a daunting challenge when (link unavailable)'s primary shipping partner, UPS, threatened to terminate their contract due to excessive volume. This move would have crippled the fledgling e-commerce site, which relied heavily on fast and reliable shipping. Undeterred, Lore and his team scrambled to find alternative solutions, negotiating with FedEx and optimizing their logistics network. Despite the chaos, Diapers.com continued to grow, and Lore's perseverance paid off: in 2010, Amazon acquired Diapers.com for a staggering $545 million. Creds Community!

Coder Radio The Mad Botter A weekly talk show taking a pragmatic look at the art and business of Software Development and the world of technology. Magic Internet Money Brad Mills My name is Brad Mills, I am a Bitcoiner. I'm an average person, I just got into Bitcoin early. I'm not a coder, I look at this space from the point of view of a regular user. I believe BTC is the best form of money. It’s free speech money. Digital Gold. Programmable money for the age of the Internet, uncensorable, peer to peer cash. A new asset class, a store of value. One of the most important open source inventions of our time, gifted to the world by an anonymous creator whose identity is still not known! I fell down the rabbit hole & have been following Bitcoin since 2011. This podcast is my evolving journey in the world of cryptocurrency as I try to reconcile my bitcoin maximalist philosophy & my respect for the Austrian Economic, Libertarian & Cypherpunk roots of bitcoin's creation with the desire to stack BTC by investing in the rest of the space. I hope you enjoy the conversations. Science in Society Drew & Liv Does caffeine give you superpowers? Will humans ever make it to Mars? Is our DNA the key to the Fountain of Youth?
