Nathan Stornetta shared thisThis week I joined LinkedIn. Like with most big career decisions, there were a lot of reasons for wanting to make the change. What resonated most for me, though, in wanting to join was LinkedIn's vision of creating economic opportunity for the global workforce through a mission of connecting the world’s professionals. That’s why it felt only too fitting to read the latest research published yesterday on social mobility from Raj Chetty, along with coauthors Matthew O. Jackson, Theresa Kuchler, and Johannes Strobel. Extending Chetty's prior research on intergenerational economic mobility and the importance of peer effects on children's future earnings, this work used anonymized Facebook connections data to convincingly demonstrate the importance of "economic connectedness" in creating economic mobility and opportunity. In short, when those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds are more closely connected to those from higher socioeconomic backgrounds, their economic outcomes are significantly improved (even after controlling for a number of other possible explanatory factors). In fact, this factor has a stronger predictive power than any other factor previously studied. I can't imagine any company better-positioned to create economic connectedness and opportunity than LinkedIn. And given this research, I *fully* believe that over time this will mean LinkedIn will make a real difference in combating poverty and creating opportunity for everyone, including those who most need it. I couldn't be more excited to get started this week and be part of the team that will make it happen. #LinkedInLife

Nathan Stornetta shared thisAmazon continues to grow by leaps and bounds, and one of the things that means is that we are definitely hiring. :) As somebody who came into Amazon as part of the student recruiting process while at The University of Chicago Booth School of Business, I'm always excited about helping those who are applying for positions and looking to enter Amazon through the same channel. If you're interested in technical product management at Amazon as either an intern or full-time hire, feel free to reach out to me to learn more about the process and whether it could be a good fit for you.

Thanks for sharing these insights, Jess. Agreed on taste as a core differentiator.I'll also note that it's fun to see I'm not alone in spending a lot of time recently thinking about some of Booth's first AI-focused courses we had the chance to take from professors like James Evans and Sendhil Mullainathan. What a cool chance we have to take that approach and apply it to industries undergoing rapid transformation!

Nathan Stornetta liked thisNathan Stornetta liked thisCheck out our new work in Science Magazine today: "Advancing science by designing for surprise," with the inimitable Casey Petroff and Gary King. Our argument: only surprises carry new information. Yet modern science rewards papers written as cautious confirmations, framed for the home subfield, designed to feel familiar, obvious, or inevitable to reviewers. The result is a literature that changes few minds and slows collective learning. We propose treating framing and audience selection as formal parameters of inference, not secondary arts of charisma or genius. Which audience would your evidence surprise most? Can the evidence bear that rhetorical weight? Large language models trained on a field's literature can now approximate what a community expects, turning audience priors from mystery into measurement. Statistics formalized missing data, measurement error, preprocessing, and causal identification. Framing and audience choice are the next frontier. As machine-produced papers written by no one, for no one flood the literature (Holden Thorp https://lnkd.in/gD8z3zBF), designing for surprise matters more than ever.

Nathan Stornetta reacted on thisNathan Stornetta reacted on thisMy papers have been signed and my chapter with LinkedIn is OFFICIALLY closed closed now. It has certainly been a unique experience filled with learning moments and growth opportunities. I would like to extend a sincere and genuine Thank You to those of you who have reached out and offered support and well wishes. I cannot express how touched I am at the outpouring of kind messages when I received the news that I had been laid off. The community is truly what made my time at LinkedIn special and something I will never forget. I have made friends and connections that will last a lifetime. The folks that I have met and worked with are some of the most driven, smart, and empathetic individuals I have ever met in my life. Looking back, I would not change a thing about my time at LinkedIn, and I can hold my head up high knowing I did the best I could. I did what was within my ability to support the folks around me who, in turn, have done what they can to support me as well. Going forward, I will be taking a bit of a career break and explore some different options. The universe and powers that be, have granted me some time off, so I will absolutely be making the most of it to rest, recharge, and reset. I will be ready to take on whatever challenge I choose next.

Nathan Stornetta reacted on thisNathan Stornetta reacted on thisToday is my last day at LinkedIn, my only full-time job ever. I’ve been here for almost 10 years, which is 92nd percentile in tenure, so I’ve seen a lot of goodbye posts. And what better opportunity to share my unimportant opinions on goodbye posts than in my goodbye post. 1. Goodbye posts shouldn’t humble brag your work accomplishments. You’re not doing promo packets here anymore, so no more impact numbers please. Actually I’d like to humble brag my favorite “non-impact” numbers at LinkedIn. * Attained 5 stars on every song (hard mode, not expert) on Guitar Hero and set the top 3 high scores on the pinball machine in the SF office 8th floor arcade from 2017-2020. * Achieved a 57-53 win loss record in ping pong matches against my teammate on the SF office 15th floor in 2019. * Welcomed ~120 cafe guest visits (79 visits are my wife) to the NYC office in the last 4 years. I learned this was top 10% in FY25 cafe guests when a new guest policy was enacted. Sorry about that. * Went up the Empire State Building observatory 15+ times using the LinkedIn pass. Took at least 8 parents of friends I had never met before. 2. Goodbye posts shouldn’t tag a million people to thank them, it’s not enjoyable to read when you don’t recognize 80% of the names. Especially tagging senior leadership to make yourself seem more important. What do you think Ryan Roslansky? Btw nice chatting with you in the SF cafe recently, let’s stay best of friends. 3. Goodbye posts shouldn’t have inside jokes and specifically the phrase “if you know you know”. We don’t know. Thank you in advance to the generic comments saying “Congrats Brian!” while maybe wondering what job I’m going to next. I appreciate all of you for having joined my professional network on and at LinkedIn.

Nathan Stornetta reacted on thisNathan Stornetta reacted on thisToday, I’m hanging up my Amazon shoes and turning in my red badge ❤️ I wish all my friends across the org the greatest of adventures. 14 years and 5 services where I was a principal architect or principal consulting architect. Every day was better than the last, all the way to the last day. You know where to find me. I'll be in the Linux community I have supported for decades. I heard the phrase, "end of an era" many times on Friday. Indeed, for me it was a privilege.
