my views are my own, but wouldn’t it be cool if they were yours too.

You can work 5 days a week and succeed as a startup.

Mercury has done that from day 0 and we are valued @ $5.2bn 7 years after launch.

I have been an entrepreneur for 20 years and raised 3 kids while doing it.

The point of success is to have a great life not just a startup 😊

Jürgen Klinsmann: “There were 70,000 people, we were warming up seriously. While ‘Live Is Life’ was playing, Maradona started juggling the ball. We stopped warming up, because there was nothing more we could do except watch him.”

A lot of the emails I get from founders are now written in a hard-hitting journalistic style. I know they're written by AI, because no founder ever wrote this way before. And once you realize something is written by AI, it's hard not to ignore it.

okay real talk @nikitabier just cause someone says “this is the best thing” re their linked essay or post or video, that doesn’t actually mean it’s the best thing and worthy of feed dominance. this feed feels very low value

A glimpse of HOPE. A new film from Na Hong-Jin starring Hwang Jung-min, Zo In-sung, Hoyeon, Alicia Vikander, Michael Fassbender, Taylor Russell, and Cameron Britton. Coming to theaters Fall 2026.

With all due respect, everything about this—“signaling privately,” “now that she is freed from” Biden, “do so after the midterms”—makes it obvious why she has no business running in 2028.

God this is so much better than the recorded version

The parenting books don’t do enough to warn you about the fact that work ends at 5:00, the school gets out at 2, and soccer starts at 3:30.

this your husband?

[paul @paulscherer]

im curious...

all the talk about ai rendering "product" solved and leaving distribution as the only challenge

yet, where are all the great new products popping up? where have the lives of the normal people changed drastically for the better?

please tell me because most of what im seeing is slop, even more aggressive baits for attention, and people building hard to use products with little use for the average consumer.

Vote @Scott_Wiener for lots of reasons, but also that he keeps better company.

@praveenTweets @UberEng I’d love to see the data on these integrations. Like how much traffic do they actually generate for the businesses. My guess? Pretty limited, cause it’s still easier to do in app

[Marc McCole @thisboy]

@danielcberk @Spotify It’s so bad.

[Lauren Gilbert @notanastronomer]

I didn’t think fare evasion was that big of a deal; the evidence from DC + SF has definitely changed my mind.

This is why it sucks and AI replacing UI and apps makes no sense

Saikat believes anyone who’s not a millionaire or billionaire like him is disqualified from running for office.

This is the aspect of climate change that I worry most about — when instead of seeing gradual degradation, we cross an irreversible line.
