Open home Devkitというスマートホームデバイスを使って何かを作るよ。これは中身を自分でいじくれるAlexaみたいなもの。
ラジコン関連で使えるものか、あるいは全く別の何か。ちょっと考えてみよう。

@aijoey @openhome Dm me!

[Jesse Leimgruber @JesseRank]

Hollywood crushes VC's at predicting the future.

These 5 movies show *EXACTLY* where we're going

> Jetsons (1962)
> Star Trek (1966) - "Computer..."
> 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) - "HAL"
> Iron Man (2008) - "Jarvis"
> Her (2013) - "Samantha"

@samuel_spitz Is the talk recorded anywhere?

[Jesse Leimgruber @JesseRank]

“We don’t invest in Hardware” - investors who don’t like moat’s

The traction and demand for OpenHome has been off the rails.

We’ve been shipping and assembling as fast as we possibly can but have filled <1% of requests.

Turns out people want to create AI Devices

[PJ Leimgruber @MisterPeej]

Had the idea to hand assemble devkits at @openhome to get hardware in the hands of our users quickly. What I didn’t account for is how insane the response was going to be, or how many of these we would be shipping weekly. Can’t wait to see what gets built next.

@DeckrobotCom Bye bye generational wealth

[Jesse Leimgruber @JesseRank]

I own Anthropic Series B shares bought in the FTX bankruptcy sale.

These shares came with an accompanying ROFR waiver, and most (all?) buyers bought them into LLC’s that hold the stock.

Buy the LLC = Buy the stock

$1.3B was sold. These shares are up 50x, now worth ~$60B+

[_gabrielShapir0 @lex_node]

I am surprised more people are not paying attention to this update from Anthropic on its stock policy. This seems like a potential bombshell.

There is an active secondary market purportedly in Anthropic stock or derivatives including on fairly reputable (or at least well-known) platforms like Forge. Anthropic is calling them out *specifically*, by name, and essentially *saying* 100% of these are illegal.

Some may be frauds (people selling Anthropic stock or interests in Anthropic stock that they don't truly own), but more likely many are legit attempts at transferring Anthropic equity (directly, as SPV shares, or as some type of 'beneficial interest' or future, etc.)

Anthropic appears to be saying it will treat all these transfers as void. I don't have access to their terms, but it's very interesting to think what this could mean. Do the 'first purported sellers' in the chain potentially have an opportunity to do a double-dip? Does the first seller and all downstream buyers get the entire entitlement nuked?

Anthropic is threatening that--are they just bluffing? If they're not bluffing, what litigation is likely to ensue? This can get into really esoteric areas of corporate law that depend on exactly how the transfer restrictions are drafted as well as the language around how violations of transfer restrictions are treated--for example, if they are merely voidABLE then downstream buyers can assert various equitable claims/defenses, but if they are VOID ab initio then in some jurisdictions that forecloses equitable defenses.

@zaidrmn Would you sell or hold?

[Jesse Leimgruber @JesseRank]

@Work_Flo_Rida I need some losses for that to work

[Jesse Leimgruber @JesseRank]

@notyetadegen @xjehmz So what happens if someone buys Zoom, which also owns Anthropic shares?

Or if someone writes an LP check into, say, Lightspeed, which owns Anthropic shares?

[Jesse Leimgruber @JesseRank]

@notyetadegen @xjehmz So what would happen if someone bought my LLC that holds these shares?

Would they own that LLC?
