According to the NYT, the proportion of young adults who view a college degree as highly important has fallen from 74% to 41% over the past decade.

I was hanging with the founder of Alex recently and we realized building a coding copilot for Apple devs is like being on a resource-rich island with no competition in a game of Civilization

[Elizabeth Yin 💛 @dunkhippo33]

My Tamagotchi startup lasted 4 months and got to the series B (before it died). We also drank 417 cans of La Croix.

Startups are so easy!

Everyone talking about how a primary changes the democratic outlook as if primaries don’t regular put the most left-leaning candidates in play all. the. time. We watched a cultural sea change ln i don’t think a primary front runs that.
