The Clio-@GoClio-acquisition of @vLexNews and @Fastcase wasn’t just strategic—it was values-driven. A moment that says as much about who—as what. I wrote about it, including my personal experience, here 👉 https://t.co/ALGHkofDsK…
New York is well-suited to the next generation of startups where interdisciplinary taste matters more than engineering talent density.
The proximity of lower-Manhattan capital (native NYC VCs and now every SF VC has an office) and Brooklyn taste is going to produce some awesome companies
Browser company is the first breakout example. Macro soon. Many others to come
As the cost of software development declines we will have
1. Much more software
2. Better software: the reason a lot of the software you use isn’t perfect is because making software perfect is hard
3. Open software: sheer volume of proprietary, useful and battle-tested code actually was a pretty good moat pre AI. Soon it won’t be. Open source projects will proliferate and companies will realize being open is a better decision for the below reasons, outweighing the value of staying proprietary
What now matters more?
A. Taste. AI can be superintelligent analytically and still have no taste, especially when it comes to designing UIs for human fingers, and especially when the training data (humans) for the most part have no taste
B. Brand. We have huge variety in fashion because the cost of producing a garment is low. So too will we have abundant software choice as the cost of code approaches cotton
C. All the other moats: ecosystem, network effects, human capital
