People are talking about the death of marketers. It's over for paid media, right? These are all the things that we're going to talk about, why you must disrupt yourself. Now, like Cursor, they went from, you know, fastest company or one of the fastest companies to get up to a billion in revenue. And now everyone's churning everywhere, not using Cursor anymore, right? I think if there's one takeaway for you, like the chaos that we've been through in our careers, Neil's been in business, I want to say 24 years, I've been in business, call it 10, 11 years or so. And the more chaos you face, the more you get through, the more resilience you build, and the better you turn out for business. Because I believe that the stat is 90% of businesses fail within the first 5 years or so. The case for that is really just lack of resiliency. There's a stat that I came across yesterday, Neil. For any big business, we're talking like the generational companies ever, really, it's by year 15 that they really start to take off. And that actually aligns well with Jensen Huang from, from Nvidia, right? It took to year 15 for them to really take off. And he said for the first 15 years, he was a pretty crappy CEO and they've been around for a very long time. So I do think it takes quite a while to build something great.
