VCs are like the bungling general in every WWI movie that orders a frontal assault on an entrenched machine gun with the bugle of money. The entire unit is brutally mowed down, but the VC pins the medal on the one guy who reached the enemy position. And does so again and again.
One of the necessary delusions of Silicon Valley is that anyone can go out there and succeed at a startup. The statistics indicate otherwise, but to suggest otherwise is to kill the vibe and violate 'the Code'. In aggregate good for SV, but not necessarily every individual.
THE WORLD YOU WERE RAISED IN NO LONGER EXISTS
It’s over
Someone farted in this Waymo and there should be some way of leaving feedback on the n-1th rider and their residue since there’s no human admin for the car. @Waymo please fix.
“We have authorized the issuance of undesignated preferred stock and blockchain common stock…” It’s going to be in every S-1 soon enough. T+3 days settlement will be a barbaric-seeming thing of the past.
Tokenized equities are going to be everywhere. Today they even found their way to page 83 of Figma's revised S-1.
USDT gonna hit $4 by EOY. You just watch.
They're tracking stablecoin performance on CNBC like it's gonna have a move

Some unfinished business, it would seem.

"No Jews, no news" is a cliché, but still simply amazing to see it once again prevail in the case of the Druze massacres in Syria (which the Jews are coincidentally trying to stop).
The opposite of Whataboutism is Onlythisism, in which you only consider one party in a region or issue, even though other parties commit worse offenses within the morality being supposedly invoked: a clear double standard. This is how the West observes the Middle East of course.
The @lugg crew shows up and it's an Asian who doesn't speak Spanish, and an Hispanic who doesn't speak English, I have to address them each separately in different languages, and now I want to watch the buddy film of these two of how they met and manage to work together.
Has a Tesla ever been successfully stolen off the street? (Don’t mean someone joyriding because they pilfered the entry card.)
I just received notice from @ChubbNA that they are unwilling to renew insurance for my home in California. Markets fail when price ceilings prevent markets from clearing. The CA government's complete mismanagement of its insurance industry is leading to this widespread failure…
