Learned about Pro Rata rights today and was wondering how common/rare they are for VCs during Seed Round. Is it worth looking for offers without those rights as a founder? Are there other stipulations to it that are worth considering? Any insight helps. Thanks! #VentureCapital

Today I just dropped over half of my classes at the University of Illinois. I am official a part time student. It is a little scary knowing that I am technically falling behind in school this semester. But sacrifices like this have to be made to go after what I really want.
YC Startup School was a huge success! Met up with friends, co-founders, and even some clients! Got to learn from the sharpest minds in tech. And to top it off, finished the night with a 3am YC application video being recorded. Big things to come! #ycstartupschool#yc

Right when I thought my AI coding productivity had hit its max, I learned what SSH was. Now, there's no excuse for wasting time "away from your work setup" when your phone has a window into it. Wild stuff!
Memento Mori: remember that you will die. Not morbid. Actually freeing. When you acknowledge that truth the small stuff falls away. Hesitation, pettiness, the fear of judgment. The Stoics weren't obsessed with death because they were dark. It made them take life seriously.
