been saying a long time i truly feel there is a need for a linkedin 2.0 or something that blends linkedin and x. excited to give this a try once i get in!
Excited to introduce @Cosign: the curated professional network for the startup community: cosign.co Our goal is to create the following: - A comprehensive startup directory of investors, companies, and operators, including what they worked on and who they worked on it with. - Cosign graph: Who shaped your career? Who were you actually in the trenches with? Who would work with you again? Who thinks you’re someone to watch? - Durable reputation: Great endorsements happen every day on X and disappear into the feed. Cosign attaches those signals permanently to people and companies. - Discovery: Who are the best fintech angels? Which AI companies should I watch? Who are the best designers? - Intent network: Privately signal “I’d invest in them,” “I’d hire them,” “I’d work with them,” or eventually even “I’d acquire this company.” Match people when interest exists on both sides. Imagine if Wikipedia, LinkedIn, and OG AngelList had a baby. Though Cosign is a community, not a business. In order to join, you need to be cosigned. Or you can apply directly. David Booth and I started this idea 7 years ago but didn’t have the firepower to make it work. Now we do. No one has really touched LinkedIn in 20 years. Excited to take a swing. cosign.co

chime cut 10% five days before reporting a profitable quarter per workforcesignal. layoffs aren't about survival anymore, they're budget moves. do this: stop taking the market personally and treat your career like a business. always be interviewing, even when you're happy.

i gave ai access to basically everything. it reads my paystubs, finds laid-off folks i can help, moves my plane seat, and talks to my wife's ai. job searching? start smaller. hand it one boring task this week and see what comes back.

this is becoming more and more of a thing that we are hearing
"I average 3 recruiters in my dms a day, sometimes 10." That's what happens after getting your resume and linkedin reviewed by us instead of guessing. This community works! #TechCommunity #DevCommunity

oracle's september 14 "6am email" layoff round is still rippling per nri globe - h-1b holders caught in it are on a 60-day clock to find a new sponsor. do this: if you're on a visa, build the emergency list now: 20 companies that sponsor, 5 recruiters who place visa candidates.
