Skipping the WSOP for the first time since 2017 and didn't think I'd have so much FOMO
Seeing everyone post their miserable takes and their outrage literally 2 days in makes me wish I was wandering around Aria waiting for everyone to bust to come play cash games with me
Yes, this.
I'm building out an FDE network for Conviction right now as this is the single most in-demand role across our portfolio. Would love to hear from and connect with the best FDEs in the space and learn from y'all!
Forward Deployed Engineer is the hottest, and one of the most in-demand, jobs right now.
Every major AI company is hiring including companies like @OpenAI@cognition@AnthropicAI and @Google

Nailed the perfect macro tailwind, hit multiple 10b+ companies, raised 1b+ AUM & built a full firm in just 4 years.
Chloe Mark on Good Company this week and she did not disappoint! Her take: retention >> recruiting. If someone doesn't stick, you've just created 2x the problem. She would know because @DecagonAI has gone from 20 to 300 in a year 🤯

I have gotten literally a million ads for Protecht grips/wrist wraps on my Instagram over the last few weeks and I think it’s working because I’m about to buy them
The new IG algorithm is nuts. I get maybe 2-3 different ads/products but it’s after EVERY SINGLE story
@jayhinz I wear an a16z shirt ~3 times a week at the gym
I get approached maybe once a week. The disappointment in everyone’s face when I tell them I haven’t worked there for years makes me feel bad.
But their still my most comfortable workout shirts
Meanwhile @turnkeyhq is doing better than ever and we're still hiring!
On the hunt for our next Engineering Managers and backend devs. web3 experience preferred, excitement about the potential to create the verifiable and trust layer for the Internet required
@AriannaSimpson@BChillman When people talk about being early to something, I'm reminded of the conversations you had with this team
Pretty sure the name 'Phantom' didn't even exist when these conversations were taking place and you recognized the founder-market fit before they even incorporated a name!
