I thought I'd put together a Meta Thread of the demise of the Hot Takes @Fast. 

👇 🧵

Hot take from @theryanking from Ryan Breslow (CEO of Bolt) 🔥

- Market positioning is key. Complexity of sale / onboarding + low ROI is a killer combination
- Strategic capital can kill you

Angel Investor @brianrumao - TL;DR

- Invest based on conviction not follow other investors
- If things seem off don't convince yourself
- Focus on the core numbers / Revenue etc.

What Software Engineers can learn from Fast (https://newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/the-scoop-fast) Shared on the HN Thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30947595 (Comments are gold! ⭐)

TL;DR

- Be wary of toxic positivity
- If it looks too good to be true it probably is
- Money raised > performance

Great Thread from @Jack_Raines - TL;Dr

- Past behavior ignored 
- How someone gets to where they are reflects where they will end up

@tessak22 Seems to have been sounding the alarm earlier than the shutdown notice due to some other suspicious behavior at @fast

Another take from @GergelyOrosz

Follow @HarryStebbings for the real interview with @domm. The fact is that most of the above hot takes miss the nuance of what happened.
