@MrYoniLevy @23_ae1 to confirm: it hasn't rolled out to any accounts yet? so there should be no observable impact for now?

@jsnover Such a great message. Thanks for sharing.

@paulg The latest Gemini model has a writing style that feels distinctively different, and better to me. Curious what you think if you’ve had a chance to use it in a meaningful way.

@bhalligan great episode with @nikesharora. Thanks for doing these. Really appreciated the format with candid dialogue and behind the scenes on learning a new industry, m&a, and lessons along the way.

@jaltma @rabois @vkhosla What’s the biggest strength AND blind spot they see in each other

@honam @gerstenzang @ZacharyDeWitt To what extent do you think these two ideas (don’t lose my $ vs go big) are truly at odds? Seems like one can have a mind set of “don’t lose $ and swing for the fences” too. Some trade offs, but as an operator with all eggs in one basket this is the only way in my mind.

@bhalligan It’s interesting that both started and scaled direct to consumer before adding other businesses. Besides OpenAI I’m not sure who else is clearly winning with consumers this time around.

@jordihays Were the chopsticks the weapon of choice?

@nejatian @Opendoor So much better!

[Zane Salim @zanes]

@malekanoms @nic_carter To what extent do you think it will increase cost of credit for consumers? That seems to be the trade off here

[Zane Salim @zanes]

@bhalligan Great list. How would you think about the right ballpark split on horizon 1 vs 2 vs 3 at different stages? Eg: for a growth stage company currently focussed on scaling up horizon 1

@patrickc Podcasts, online content, and video interviews might prove to be richer and more abundant than letters. Definitely an evolution from letters.
