@danprimack I’ve always recommended your newsletters to anyone reaching out to me interested in venture, even back to the Term Sheet days. Surprisingly few people actually meaningfully engaged with the content (though maybe a self filtering mechanism!)

@RehaMathur @AGoulburn Hey Reha! The SON gene implicated in my son’s ZTTK syndrome is an intrinsically disordered protein so this is a problem we’ve been thinking about. One consideration for us is whether SON may have some structure in the presence of one of its binding partners SRRM2

@trengriffin Well there you go! Both my parents are Taiwanese by happenstance too!

@Noahpinion There is actually a Chinese proverb/idiom that says wealth does not pass 3 generations! 富不过三代

Ultrarare disease research is underfunded, which has devastating impacts on patients and families. My close friends @Nathan_YG @AdaLio924 are raising to fund drug development for #ZTTK to give their son Lucas and others hope.

@ttunguz Thanks @ttunguz! Would you mind sharing the source for this data? Is it software only or broader VC?

@danprimack Doesn’t this strongly imply Chinese gov’t interests are overriding other investors’ fiduciary responsibility? Seems like a hugely lucrative deal to spin off US assets.

Pleasantly surprised to hear @friedberg pick
@thermofisher for 2023 best-performing on @theallinpod #110!

TMO is very well-positioned to enable cutting-edge science across advanced therapies, semiconductor, etc. with world-class biosciences, cryo-EM, and other technologies

@DWBenefield Meant more as agreement reinforcement of your skepticism - trust in all institutions (govt, media, etc) continues to degrade as individuals’ expertise erodes illusion of institutions’ intellectual authority

@kunjapur Welcome back!! Let’s catch up sometime, though I’m currently en route back from the Berlin mRNA health conference so won’t be in Boston until Thursday afternoon

@RCNConnects will you guys be supporting the Motorola MB8600 modem anytime soon?

Tonight, the whole world is watching America. I believe at our best America is a beacon for the globe.

And we lead not by the example of our power, but by the power of our example.

@mmolaro It’s an interesting point, and maybe an extra benefit of building tech conglomerates. Instagram is another one to build on that point that avoids scrutiny that is primarily directed at Facebook

You can wish the President a safe and speedy recovery, and also recognize that his own careless attitude helped get him and others sick. And vice versa.

Donald Trump is racist scum.

I can't believe I was ever told that women are too emotional to be president
