• Messaging as a customer channel and its relationship to cost of labour: interesting thoughts from Mark Zuckerberg in this interview by Stripe’s co-CEO John Collison.
• Happy to see that almost no one has picked up on the fact that Mark Z. does not do any 1-1s with his reports (“if you need to be managed you cannot report to me”).

A little bit of self-promotion: AutoOOO has been featured in the Google Workspace Developer Spotlight, a series of interviews that Google conducts with developers of innovative Workspace add-ons. You can watch the complete interview here:
