This is a reminder that , pessimism sounds like wisdom and optimism sounds stupid when things are early and still baking.
The previous generation of tech, you had to channel Autist power Now we must channel Schizo power
There are two kinds of early stage founders: Founders who are great at iterating on ideas to try and bend timing in their favor by pivoting their way to success. Founders who deeply understand a specific problem and need timing to be in their favor to find success.
I wish I was more confident earlier in my startup journey and said this more: "fuck you, you're just wrong and we are going to be successful". Especially with VCs VCs are constantly negging and say they're trying to be helpful, but they dont know what they are talking about
this is exactly how i see it! it's a means of personal enlightment, an art form, not a competition. if you let yourself see it as a competition you will be destroyed
fuck i need to actually write papers now 8 year old Pranesh would be so proud of me
average founder experience: i am a genius, i am the best, holy shit this is so easy, why is no one doing this lmao, i can do anything. i suck i suck i suck, everyone is better than me, i am so fucking stupid, i make every wrong decision, i am so far behind.
I think a Hunter Biden - Pete Buttigeg ticket would be a killer ticket for 2028
What the fuck is this banana republic shit
BREAKING: Jerome Powell has just been referred to the DOJ for criminal charges for perjury related to his $2.5B “renovation” to the Federal Reserve Building
Actually there are credible academic theories that hundreds of years of monogamous love marriages (+ ruthless culling of criminals) are part of what made the European stock so great. Polygamy is dysgenic and creates low trust people
Monogamy is not natural for men. Statistically only 20-30% of men have ever reproduced, while 80-90% of women have reproduced. Women were always sharing kings and discarding the surfs. This is the same today, all capable men have multiple women. Betas settle with one…
Same “libertarians” who called for that government bailout of SVB
Crypto guys are mad at unregulated giant bank, now they like the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
humor is the abstraction layer between the conscious and the subconscious whoever solves humor at scale will win true AGI
Whether someone enjoys airports is a 100% accurate test of whether they have the capacity to enjoy life at all
Did you know? Entourage finale has 8.8 out of 10 stars rating. Game of Thrones last episode 4.0 out of 10. Entourage > GoT ?
21 years ago today Entourage debuted!!! 7/18/2004
People outside the U.S. don't get it. This is what makes America special and great. It is not your heritage that makes you American. It is the ideas that America represents that make one American. You are American the minute you make America your home. Your accent or ethnicity…
I think if your family has hundreds of years of history in America you are frankly more American than somebody who migrated to America in 2015.
NO! NONE OF OUR TRANSPORTATION PROBLEMS ARE DUE TO A LACK OF TECHNOLOGY!
DARPA, but for Transportation and Infrastructure
myth: having cofounders will reduce your workload truth: having cofounders will make everything a competition, 10xing your workload
