I've been putting my agents in groups chats for the last 7 months. An immediate lesson was that no messaging apps are designed with agents in mind. Also it immediately changes the vibes. And I was surprised to find it was often for the worse it's a great demo but I don't think it's the right version of the future to aspire to

I really dislike it when my investors ask me to "send a blurb". 1- You invested in my company. You should already know what I'm building. 2- You and I both know that generic blurbs never work. What works is a hand-crafted message from a warm contact (i.e. you, the investor). 3- On top of that, asking for a blurb is lazy. It throws the work back on me (the founder) at precisely the moment when I'm asking for support. If you REALLY wanted to be helpful, you would write the intro yourself + ask for my edits/approval. Just sayin'

If you work a W2 job and don't have a boring business that pays you $5k-$10k a month on top of your salary... I got you. Here are 9 boring businesses for sale today (& where to buy them):

pitch follow-ups should always be "hey we just signed this customer / increased revenue / shipped this feature" and never "wondering if you had more time to think about the investment"

When I moved here in 2013 the west village was for 90 year olds, celebrities, and fifth generation New Yorkers. It was super quiet and was the perfect place to get totally blazed and walk around alone feeling like you were in some gas lamp lit 1800s spooky New York. I’ll never forgive people for making it influencer line culture hell.

No, you've got it backwards. The human psyche finds it far more comfortable to perceive AI as "humanized", and within a few years the empirical evidence will leave no doubt. Especially once Microsoft stops bankrolling its "AI psychosis" nonsense. Everyone betting on the opposite side is going to lose this one. #StopAIPaternalism

Your thought for today...

there's a good chance a big reason for overwhelming VC consensus is that every VC is using the same AI for their due diligence. hard to be non-consensus if the everyone asks the same models to help evaluate the same startups.

People are losing the attention span to even watch 30 minute TV shows as short form video eats the world.

This project was always a scam if you took more than 5 minutes to look into it. I stay quiet on this stuff because bag holders will threaten me if I call it out but it was a clone of 0xBow with fake VB ties I suggest using a Claude code session to vet any project before you buy

Coffee and Contemplation just hits harder in the Tesla Cybercab.

For the past few days I've been at this place wondering how the crane operator gets into the cabin so today I had to sit and wait for them to knock off. I couldn’t believe my eyes. 😭

THEY DID IT! @Spotify FINALLY DID IT!

NFTs are an area of crypto that i think deserves another look the 2021 boom and subsequent crash left a lot of people with a negative view of them, but the underlying concept still makes sense to me as more businesses move onchain, NFTs could become a useful way to represent ownership, experiment with revenue sharing and build communities around products i expect there's still a lot of room for experimentation beyond the NFT models we saw last cycle

"We will ship that <today/tomorrow/this week>" vs. "I'm advocating internally to our PMs to include this on our Q4 roadmap and will let you know after our next exec review"
