Your relationship with yourself is foundational.

People optimize their relationships with everyone except the one person they can never leave: Themselves. You can divorce a spouse. Fire a co-founder. Cut off a parent. You're stuck with you. Most people spend more time managing their LinkedIn connections than…

Pointing out potential problems is a great way to look smart and preserve the status quo. Neither is a good objective to strive for.

In emphasizing critique over action (and prohibition over innovation), problemism can do real harm to society. When you only focus on what could possibly go wrong, you inevitably discount what could possibly go right.

The idea that we will automate work by building artificial versions of ourselves to do exactly the things we were previously doing, rather than redesigning our old workflows to make the most out of existing automation technology, has a distinct “mechanical horse” flavor

In 2016, I was in Dallas with early morning meetings, but I stayed up to watch Kobe Bryant's final game at Staples Center. Today, I'm in Singapore, holding off on leaving for an appointment to catch Clayton Kershaw's final regular season curtain call at Dodger Stadium.


It's been amazing to watch the @GustoHQ journey. I still remember meeting with @joshuareeves when he was a young founder with Unwrap. Now he's running an amazing company, and we're proud to be investors!

Congratulations to Larry Ellison, who has finally realized his dream of becoming the richest person in the world! Like him or not, he is a Silicon Valley icon who has stayed relevant for five decades.


It's wild that I'm now hearing podcast ads for tallow as a skincare product, and apps for using the rhythm method for contraception. Can a huge astrology comeback be far away? Kyrie Irving was ahead of his time for believing in a flat Earth.


People keep claiming that we need humanoid robots for the built environment. I'm pretty sure dogs can go almost anywhere a human can. And we have numerous robotic quadrupeds working in the world already.
