Those who haven't been in the valley for long don't understand how much positive impact @sama has had on the tech eco-system. He has been an amazing supporter of tiny startups for 15+ years.

Even if he hadn't been a stalwart this is absolutely no way to treat a human being.

I wrote this early this morning and I wasn't sure if I would actually publish it, but here it is:

Today, we are announcing that we have doubled our AUM @LongJourney by closing a $181,818,181.8 fund. I can’t be more proud of what @cyantist and I dreamed up 5yrs ago.

For both of us this business has always been deeply personal. Today I would like to explain why it matters to me.

Talk to your users.

[Paul Graham @paulg]

The classic software startup writes code to solve users' problems. If AI makes writing code more of a commodity, understanding users' problems will become the most important component of starting a startup. But it already is.

Recall Pamela price.

[Garry Tan @garrytan]

No consequences for murder is pure breakdown of society

[Prayag Narula @prayagn]

@jaltma @erondu I thought it was a euphemism for something. But no there’s the guinea pig.

This one is fantastic documentary and I hope having @LastWeekTonight talk about it will get more people to watch the @thegigisupdoc

@mihaela_v @HeyMarvinApp Ruthie would have been cat number 5.

Fun fact, Ruthi was named after Ruth Bader Ginsberg.

[Prayag Narula @prayagn]

@mihaela_v @HeyMarvinApp This was a proposal for my official portrait to go on our team page that was sadly vetoed.

[Prayag Narula @prayagn]

@mihaela_v @AmyHeger @samirpassi @hannawallach @mmadaio @erichorvitz @DeanCarignan @HeyMarvinApp We are so so excited about your reserch.

@darbyw @Microsoft Are existing Clerky startups eligible? Asking for a friend. :)

@mkapor Dear Marissa,

Thanks for your email. I would love to meet your client and talk to them about my NFT collection and how they too can become accomplished by trading crypto.

To the moon!

@ChristineMHall @TechCrunch Thats a big deal. You're prolific!

[Prayag Narula @prayagn]

So does @bridgebank it’s really easy to setup too. Everyone should check it out and if you need intros DM me.

[Adam Nash @adamnash]

FYI: @FirstRepublic has an Insured Cash Sweep business account that is FDIC-insured up to $100M and currently pays a little over 3%.

They really should be marketing this more heavily...

It’s even worse that this. If SVB is not backstopped it will lead to a bank run on every small cap bank in California and then the country.

It will bring the economy to its knees.

[Garry Tan @garrytan]

Regulators need to step in to do a *backstop* of depositors (not a bailout of a bank)

40,000 SVB depositor small businesses
30% will fail to make payroll in the next 30 days
Estimate 10 employees each
120,000 jobs on the line

Years of US innovation on the line

Lou is one of the sharpest minds in research today. Always a pleasure talking to him. This time we recorded our conversation.

Thanks for having me, Lou.

[Louis Rosenfeld @louisrosenfeld]

Had a great time talking #AI and #QualitativeResearch with @HeyMarvinApp's @prayagn on my podcast. Some really good thoughts on how #UXresearch and #UXresearchers can grow in relevance through using AI when it makes sense (and when it doesn't).

@paulg @daltonc You would've guessed right. This graph is mostly BS! Vices are hard to survey.
