Honored to talk with @SenatorDurbin alongside the incredible @Alton_Works family, Mayor David Goins, and @JT-Minor about the region's innovation ecosystem. cc: @stakehousefund @SIUE
Today I visited the newly opened Wedge Innovation Center in Alton—a dynamic hub for digital innovation and community impact. Excited to join local leaders and @SIUE for a discussion on how this cutting-edge space will drive economic growth across the Metro East.

blackthorne: their product has zero defensibility, the traction is inconsistent, and the market is way too small. there's zero chance this company ever succeeds mariko: anjin was honored to have met you and expresses regret that your startup is too early for him to invest

Several of my colleagues have shared this exceptional bit of journalism by @Matt_Levine on what precipitated the @SVB_Financial situation. Must read. A lot of amazing people work @ SVB & they've played a critical part in the ecosystem since inception. 💔 bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

Great to see @WUSTL take such a proactive approach to discussing the impact of generative AI in their classrooms and the larger implications this technology has on education. Cc: @WUSTLnews
WashU just emailed about the use of AI in coursework

Wife boards @AmericanAir flight a group before me using my e-ticket (different last names). I try to board, my e-ticket goes red, and they ask me, "traveling with someone else?" That's it. I wonder if I would have been able to do that. Either way, airline security #fail 🙄🤦🏾‍♂️

Not good enough @SouthwestAir, no longer a fan after this debacle. Pressing pause and reset buttons, screwing over thousands of travelers during the holidays while offering us zero viable solutions and paltry rebates - Herb Kelleher & Rollin King would be ashamed.
On the heels of wide-scale disruptions, we're working diligently to Safely recover our operation & accommodate displaced Customers & Crews. We know this is unacceptable & sincerely apologize. If your travel was impacted, explore self-service options here: southwest.com/traveldisrupti…

👇🏽🧵 very helpful.
December 31 is the deadline for lots of random personal finance and tax stuff Here is a quick checklist of everything money-related you wanna look into before the end of the year 👇👇 P.S. Let me know if I'm missing something important!
Is anyone else sick of reading future market (and captain obvious) predictions from the same VCs that make bets on FTX, Adam Neumann, Andy Rubin, etc.?

Ironic that one of the tenants in crypto is you don’t need to trust anyone because it’s all “on chain.” Yet everyone that lost money in FTX (both customers and investors) deviated from that construct. Neither FTX investments or customer assets were “on chain.” (More).

I logged on to @twitter to shout out @RCColaIntl and @nealbrennan (Blocks on @netflix) only to see MO Senate race called in favor of a POS. Well, no better time than now to double down on RC Cola & Neal Brennan. Also, as good a time as any to say I don't compromise on character.
