@samir_vasavada @viseinc Congratulations @samir_vasavada and @viseinc. Amazing to see what you've done since 2023, but I'm more excited to see what lies ahead!

Behind many of the platforms that shape modern life are Asian American innovators whose stories have too often gone untold.

"The United States of Asian+America," a digital documentary series from TAAF @taaforg in partnership with Wong Fu Productions @wongfupro, highlights AAPI changemakers who have helped shape culture, technology, and everyday life.

It's an honor to be featured in Episode 1, as host @wongfuphil sits down with me to unpack the story behind YouTube -- and how pioneers, including Phil and Wong Fu Productions, helped build the platform from the ground up.

It's an honor to be an Asian American and to be selected to share my story alongside so many who have paved the way.

@louszbd @swyx @aiDotEngineer Let’s meet up! I’m a big fan.

[steve chen @stevechen]

Ron, this was incredibly difficult to read.

You have been instrumental in building the foundation of Silicon Valley. I will always be grateful for your patience, your mentorship, and the wisdom you've shared with me over the years. More than that, you've done this all with a rare, kind heart.

Wishing you a speedy recovery and sending all my best wishes to you and your family. The UCSF team is amazing.

@TonyW @abc7kristensze You too @TonyW !!

[steve chen @stevechen]

Great catching up with @abc7kristensze!

It’s astonishing to look back at the last 21 years of YouTube’s growth. From a simple idea to a truly global community, YouTube has come a long way.

@CardilloSamuel Seeing this prompted me to download and try hermes agent. So far, so good!

@rainbow_0219 Amazing plugin!!

I just installed the Clawdbot gateway on my Mac mini and i have two other machines talking to it. Clawdbot is all I’ve been playing with this last week. This month’s bill for Claude is going to reach a peak. Clawdbot is the future!

[David Sacks @DavidSacks]

Replaced my NYT subscription with a Mac Mini and Clawdbot. Told it to gather as much factual information as possible, then rewrite it as left-wing propaganda. Works perfectly.

Thanks @koomen for the visit! Awesome to see YC visiting UIUC! This is such an important step created for the many talented UIUC students and alums to have formal connections to Silicon Valley.

When is @pmarca making his visit?! 😀

[Paul Graham @paulg]

I bet few people there know it, but YC wouldn't exist without UIUC. My father went there from England on a Fullbright, and came back determined to move to America.

@liquidai @ramin_m_h Love seeing this! Lisa Su is a massive inspiration to me, both as a Taiwanese icon and a visionary leader. Her turnaround of AMD is legendary. Seeing the CEOs of Liquid @ramin_m_h and AMD @LisaSu together on stage is amazing!!

[steve chen @stevechen]

It was an incredible opportunity to be in Bogotá, Colombia, in person this summer to speak at the Game Changers Fest 2025 hosted by @GameChangersC0.

A bonus was to do this 1:1 interview with @IvanDuque, the president of Colombia from 2018-2022:

What if you could build a gameplay with precision, then restyle it to look like anything - anime, fantasy, cyberpunk?

AI tools are only meaningful when they can help realize creative vision, not replace it. Sign up for our hackathon in January below to be the first to build on Moonlake 👇
