how to have a super awkward conversation with a vc where you might drink coffee and will hopefully get information and maybe even a term sheet or least build some fomo https://t.co/bsyDlKDmib

Loved this line. Can’t wait to watch the whole documentary

"I still can't type. I cant read my own handwriting. I dont think consecutively. I'm anecdotal. I'm instinctual. But I can see like a son of a bitch"

Nobody cares is one of my favorites.

Fearing what other people care about is the thing that stops people from trying to do new things that are "low status" - they're afraid of the judgement.

[Alfred Lin @Alfred_Lin]

I have three posters behind my desk that guide my work. May they guide yours too.

NOBODY CARES, WORK HARDER.

Nobody cares how hard it feels or how unfair it seems. The world doesn’t pause for excuses or wait for perfect conditions. Progress comes from showing up when motivation is gone, putting in the work when no one is watching, and staying disciplined when quitting would be easier. Results aren’t built through attention or approval — they’re earned through consistency, effort, and patience. Keep working. Stay focused. Let your results speak louder than anything you could say.

DO HARD THINGS.

Hard things test you, shape you, and reveal what you’re made of. Growth doesn’t come from comfort — it comes from struggle, from showing up when it’s tough, and pushing past the point where most stop. Every time you take the harder path, you build strength, discipline, and belief in yourself. Keep going. The challenge is the path — and it’s where the best version of you is built.

1% BETTER EVERY DAY.

Small steps lead to big change. Each day is a chance to grow, improve, and move closer to your goals no matter how small the progress seems. Success isn’t about being perfect; it’s about showing up, staying consistent, and trusting in the power of steady effort. Over time, those 1% improvements add up to something extraordinary. Keep going, stay patient, and believe in the process — you’re building something remarkable, one step at a time.

good news is there's a lot more agents to turn on and point at each other

[Olivia Moore @omooretweets]

New @a16z market map alert! 🚨

Consumer agents have emerged as the hot category...and as a can't-miss distribution channel

We've seen products reach hundreds of thousands of users faster than ever before (with best-in-class retention!)

But, we're still SO early 👇

need my agents to hire a human to stand over me to get me to do the things I asked my agents to get me to do

the way to deliver a great pitch is by practicing a bad one

[Aaron Harris @harris]

@paulerlanger @fomo @theinformation Now you've really made it.

[Aaron Harris @harris]

@andregoiano Thanks!

VCs talk.

a lot.

so much that it is hard to figure out who said what and when and when you should reach out as a result

so we built a tool to let you actively listen to VCs so you know when you're talking about you...or enough about you that it's a good time to send that text message

Startups may save European manufacturing. Maybe.

Twice as many manufacturing companies raised seeds already this year (and >2x the funding)

@0xEvgeniy Learning to say nothing is a serious challenge, especially for a CEO whose primary job is communicating

Watching @ZReitano lead Ro through this transition has been a masterclass in grit, vision, and singular purpose. Glad he's talking about the journey
