One of my close friends started taking zinc in the morning, magnesium at night, and vitamin D+K2 with breakfast after his doctor told him to.
He did it literally for 30 days straight.
Then... no joke his personality did a complete 180
Running a company:
2020: can you survive a pandemic?
2021: still here? we’re going to give all of your competitors $100m series A rounds.
2022: wow, you made it? okay, all engineers cost $600,000/year now.
2023: nice job! okay, SVB failed and we’re going to take away your bank account.
2024: a survivor I see. but can you pivot from ai to crypto to defense tech back to ai-enabled defense tech in a 12 month period to stay relevant?
2025: unfortunately all of your competitors have raised $2b series B rounds. oh and only 500 engineers are relevant and they cost $100m/yr each.
2026: well, well, well. you’re still in business? let’s deploy the thunderclap of godlike LLMs from the heavens so all of your customers can rebuild your app in 2 hours. can you survive?
2024 has been a hell of year personally and professionally. Thrilled to announce our $7.0M Seed round led by @RaceCapital.
Kudos to @sky_st_r and @iboshoer to building relentless every single day.

HF0 now invests $1 million uncapped into every team.
Regular applications open today. Deadline Sunday.
The top repeat founders in the world can accomplish an unbelievable amount with $1M in HF0 and don’t need to take on the dilution of a traditional seed round… (1/5)
Hiring based on flashy company work history is a very mixed bag.
First, success has many fathers and failure is an orphan. Everybody tells you they built the whole cathedral.
Second, the truly successful team members of rocket ship companies don’t leave. They’re like late cofounders.
I like building people up. If your startup is doing so-so or you’re early in tech but like to ship hit me up on DM.
