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

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).

Being American
Is more than a pride we inherit
It’s the past we step into
And how we repair it
We’ve seen a force
That would shatter our nation
Rather than share it
But while democracy
Can be periodically delayed
It can never be
Permanently defeated

Kobe was a legend on the court and just getting started in what would have been just as meaningful a second act. To lose Gianna is even more heartbreaking to us as parents. Michelle and I send love and prayers to Vanessa and the entire Bryant family on an unthinkable day.

Today, we announced @FRDMROBOTICS and our fundraise!
I'm super proud, excited, and full of gratitude!
We have the team, customers, and the top-notch investors needed to continue scaling the software-infrastructure that modern robotics teams deserve... and the industry needs!
Proud to lead the $6.6M seed round for Freedom Robotics 🤖
Robotics teams shouldn’t have to reinvent the wheel for remote management and tele-operation.
We are at the dawn of practical robots everywhere, and this is a key enabler 🧰

I’m heartbroken to tell you that today I lost my best friend and husband. He passed peacefully surrounded by many of the people he loved most. I am thankful for all of Dwight’s friends, teammates and 49ers fans who have sent their love during his battle with ALS. Kelly Clark.

7 portfolio companies and @SocialCapital, ourselves, made the list of 50 most innovative companies. It’s great recognition of a great team, and while 8/50 companies feels pretty good, it’s still day 1: big things are coming so stay tuned. 🤐😬🤔😈 teapaw.org/socialcapital/status/9…
It’s an honor to be on the #FCMostInnovative list alongside so many of our portfolio companies: @SlackHQ, @GlookoInc, @mPharmaHealth, @CommonBond, @Wealthfront & @theflutterwave. fastcompany.com/company/soci…

The most important thing to learn in school is that you can learn almost anything, and so you shouldn't let not knowing about something be an excuse for not doing what you want to do. Go focus and study.
