"The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war shall be directly proportional to how they perceive the Veterans of earlier wars were treated."

[Adam Shuaib @adamshuaib]

The single best predictor of founder success we’ve seen, above all else, is raw determination. Across the 100+ successful founders we’ve interviewed, 7 signals constantly showed up:

(1) A history of being under-estimated. There was always someone early in their life who doubted them, whether that be a sibling, parent, teacher or colleague.

(2) Lifelong iconoclasts. Never fit in with the group. Quirky tastes in hobbies, music, food that others find unusual.

(3) Some evidence of prior failure. Whether that be previous companies, product launches or career pivots, they always failed at least once (and often multiple times).

(4) Irrationally optimistic. If their lead engineer quits or a funding round fails or a key customer churns, they are never pessimistic and never lose hope. Always glass half full.

(5) Lack of financial motives. The desire to succeed was never driven by money. Cash served as a scorecard and nothing else.

(6) Funding struggles. Almost all struggled with early funding rounds, but did not give up in the face of capital scarcity. Lack of capital forced discipline.

(7) Institutional rejection. They were almost always rejected by a top institution early in their career (sports team, school, college or company).

@LarsenJensenUSA Happy Veterans Day, Larsen. Thank you for your sacrifice to protect our nation.

[Dil Leonares @aelirdil]

Happy Veterans Day to every service member who served this country.

Thank you for standing watch so the rest of us could live free. We build Aelir for you, so no crew operates blind, on the water, in the air, or on land.

@PhilipJohnston Pitched a friendly investor I've been building a relationship with over the past few years. His last email was "We're reviewing and get back to you soon" which was October 23rd no word yet. Should I move on? Wish I could just get a "Hey its too early or not the right fit for us"

We built @aelirsi so no crew operates blind.

A vessel that sees for itself is a safer vessel. That is the whole idea behind the onboard picture layer, and it is the idea behind this collection too.
