Worth a shot. And just love the brand.

I’m gonna give 10 random people that repost this and follow me $25,000 for fun (the $250,000 my X video made) I’ll pick the winners in 72 hours



Back on Twitter and it seems like that OpenAI thing was kind of a big deal.


Read this. It is a phenomenal case study in investment decisions for complex marketplaces. I could not have enjoyed this anymore if I tried.

Congratulations to @apoorva_mehta, @fidjissimo and the entire @Instacart team on becoming a public company! We @a16z have been privileged to be along for the ride. Reflections from our initial investment back in 2014: a16z.com/instacart/



Looking for a great WebFlow developer with experience in site performance and conversion optimization. Designs are complete - just need to build! Who should I be chatting with?


You are pre-product until you are post-revenue. If you develop a product or service and you can't get a single stakeholder to pay $1 for that offering, you aren't a start-up. You are a hopeful 501c3 with a donations problem.


Some of those early sales calls... 🎪 (1) Brought my 8-week-old to a stranger's house (+4x). (2) Drove out to a warehouse in Mesquite for a client. He began the conversation by placing his firearm on the table and proceeded to eat tacos in front of me for 12 minutes without…

I feel like he is on to something.

Screw it. I want to start a home service. There are 3 services I could choose that I've needed since I bought my house that were unnecessarily difficult to find someone to do. I will win by - Doing laps around everyone in lead gen - Competent customer service Am I crazy?



Great take. You are pre-product until you are post-revenue. If they won’t pay for it, you are still a 501c3.

I hate when pre-seed and seed-stage founders trick themselves into thinking that they’re doing real work. Lots of the “progress” I see in investor updates are what I’ll call “fake work.”

Smoked a couple of birds. One garlic-herb dry rub. Another with a BBQ rub. And, yeah, we had a baby 3 days ago.

I hope I build my family as well as I seek to build my business. My wife and I cherish moments like this. Her work in early child development has opened my heart to the unspoken challenges of parenting. Congrats to this family - thanks for sharing such encouragement and wisdom.

Threaddin’ the gnar.


The businesses we partner with have exceptional operators who consistently solve real problems. They have a great chance to win, every day. Being a founder of a tech start up is not the "pro-level". It's just a different game, in a pile of games, that has a lot more losers.

I don't know who needs to hear this but you should stop reading books about Elon and Jobs and hanging on every word as if it will make you a better entrepreneur. They are the unicorns. You'd be better off getting coffee with the guy down the street who owns a medium sized…
