in the top 1% of <5 person engineering teams for july dataset includes startups backed by YC, a16z, etc :)

not low carb or esp high in protein but superrrrrr tasty sometimes you gotta treat yourself

seems like people have finally figured out how to manage negative press soham and astronomer both turned terrible PR into huge wins we're so back

so i made it onto r/linkedinlunatics for a totally fabricated post about work life balance designed to enrage people on linkedin (see text i sent to myself, not a candidate) there must be an award for this

quick tip to my jewish friends for dealing with n4zis on X if they harass you, just lean in to the insanity tell them - you've added their name to the Mossad hit list - you're pissed everyone knows we're trying to erase white christians - to suggest a final solution

all of the most successful people in tech in nyc are bi coastal

dating in SF is like fundraising in Europe - very few and mostly bad options - no one knows what they're doing - extremely high expectations - deals come with strange terms (non-monogamy / triple liq prefs) - most people just opt out entirely (move to NYC to date / SF to raise)

my latest food experiment is this egg white salmon breakfast taco 30g protein for 200 calories - egg white tortilla - cottage cheese - smoked salmon - broccoli sprouts - dill - olive oil - balsamic glaze if you’re feeling wild

dating in nyc is the closest thing to fundraising you can do - so many options & meetings - tell the same story over and over - everyone is "super interested" - first meetings go great but then get ghosted - people pop back up randomly when you post something impressive online

met a candidate that said he is "looking for more work-life balance" - rejected immediately some advice - don't work at a startup - don't even mention this to big cos (just ask about hours) - reconsider your career (the right one shouldn't feel like work)

had a great engineer pull out of our process today to start his own company this was my advice to him

interviewing engineers how much of a red flag is it if they don't know what these are: - linear - local first - soham

had a crazy experience last night learned the names of the servers and waitstaff at a restaurant and said them out loud to them totally changed the vibe and gave me infinite energy. why did no one tell me it was this easy?

do I know anyone in NYC who sings/does karaoke? have something fun for you this friday

the most exciting but still fringe trend in tech right now: conscious, emotional intelligence leadership training I just did it and many many more top founders, operators and investors are signing up in droves

I am a loving, abundant, intuitive man

may organize a “we need more billionaires” meetup in nyc dm if you’re interested
