@tfadell That is the reason why product leadership is such a complex skill to find!

Dear @flysas @SAS I made a genuine mistake on my departure date minutes after booking on your website. I contacted customer service and was refused any help. This is a simple human error made in good faith! Would really appreciate someone reaching out 🙏 #SAS #CustomerService

Want to be a VC?

Don’t start in VC.

Go work at a startup.
Feel the chaos.
Build something real.

Empathy > spreadsheets.

Agree?

[Roberto Bonanzinga - InReach Ventures @Bonanzinga]

This is why I started @InReachVentures Who else is doing something similar across other private strategies?

[Venture Capital Podcast @VCPodcastfm]

“AI-first VC” isn’t a strategy.

Early stage, growth, private equity —
different stages, different problems, different uses of AI.

There’s no single playbook.
Context beats labels.

Thoughts?

Breaking: #ChiswickBridge nominated for “Best Time Expansion”.
A 3-week job magically stretched to 6 months… while barely working most weeks.
@TfL reinventing construction as performance art. Compensation for locals, the usual: nothing.

@chrija @karpathy @dwarkesh_sp I also heard it and is amazing. I did not think for 1 sec was pessimistic it felt insightful and balanced.

This is what early-stage venture is all about: backing great people early, staying patient through the learning curve, and watching them build something truly meaningful. Cc @InReachVentures

Do people start a lot of Jam on @Spotify ? This is mine this morning. Let’s play! https://t.co/M3Jc91Zj69

Benchmark is dead is absolute BS.

No fund has played the AI wave of last 18 months better.

Let me put this in context:

In their most recent fund they have:

Fireworks ($130M ARR)

Sierra ($5BN valuation)

LangChain ($1BN valuation)

Mercor ($100M ARR in 11 months)

HeyGen ($80M ARR in 12 months)

Manus (one of most insane teams in AI)

Oh and they have @peterfenton @ericvishria at the helm.

Yeah, I am long Benchmark.

I always love the speed at which @craftdocs experiments!

[Craft.do @craftdocs]

One more thing…

We're integrating DeepSeek R1, a local model, into Craft's AI assistant as an experimental feature. Tomorrow, a select group of people will be able to download it to their devices and use it offline as well! Follow us for early access! 🚀

We believe AI should assist with everyday tasks, even offline. With DeepSeek R1, you can work offline, stay in the flow, and handle writing or questions without switching tools. Enjoy it wherever you are - whether you are in a remote cabin or finalizing drafts in a café with shaky Wi-Fi.
