On the topic of subsidies: a large sum of public funds flows to already well established companies that aren't inventing new technologies, rethinking infrastructure, or advancing the national interest. They're mostly just milking their decaying dominance.

Threatening to pull subsidies from the few companies driving American progress will only stall innovation, slow national competitiveness, and discourage future founders.

Elon’s companies aren’t even in the top 15 recipients of subsidies. Compared to others, the subsidies his companies receive are peanuts, and they’re among the few that have actually benefited the American people.

Elon runs six multi billion-dollar companies simultaneously (SpaceX, Tesla, X, xAI, Neuralink, and Boring Company)

Most founders can’t run one.

Walter Isaacson (who spent a year shadowing Elon and wrote his biography) explains ‘How Elon does it’ on a podcast

Plastic waste is an existential problem. It doesn’t degrade naturally and bleeds microplastics that permeate everything, including our bloodstreams.

The days are long but the decades are short - Sam Altman

Written when Sam turned 30. He had been leading YC and wrote to make each chapter big enough that your prior chapter felt inconsequential by comparison. Just the level of ambition. https://t.co/CwqaiqnHdy

Good decisions are made by groups, great decisions are made by individuals.

When risk mitigation is the key, committees work well. When upside creation is the goal, the smaller the circle the better.

@cyantist + someone is wearing your clothes!

[Shreyas Doshi @shreyas]

Facts leaders must accept sooner or later

1) People aren’t exactly like you

2) No one can read your mind

3) So clarify & repeat-repeat-repeat

4) You can’t force people to change

5) You can listen better

6) And thank people more often

I stubbornly resisted this. Don’t be me

You will forever be in awe at the amount of credit and respect you get if you just do what you said you were going to do.
