My hot take, @RobinhoodApp wins vs @coinbase . I will tell you why. It has everything to do with their mission, CEOs, and resulting strategy. 👇


Next evolution of software development in the world of AI!

Every evolution in software builds on what came before. You don’t start from scratch, you carry the best parts forward. The next step isn’t to replace the workflows, it’s making them self-driving. That’s where @linear is headed.

Congratulations Kasey! Super excited to see what you and the team do next in RL!

We've raised $7M to help companies build AI agents that actually learn and work. @Osmosis_AI is a platform for companies to fine-tune models that outperform foundation models with reinforcement learning. Better, faster, and cheaper.

In our Series C round at @linear, we gave all current and former teammates the opportunity to sell a portion of their vested options. From the start, we’ve aimed to make Linear’s equity program as employee-friendly as possible. Now including path to liquidity.


This is like having level 1, 2, and 3 triage before work gets to a developer. Effectively, a new org enabled. Awesome work here.

Now ready for deployment: @cursor_ai Delegate any Linear issue to Cursor, and a background agent will get to work. Once the task is complete, the Cursor agent will update the issue automatically with a PR.



Meet indomitable @MadhavanSF on AI & pricing. Very important for companies to focus on a) Attribution, b) Autonomy. My take is that Attribution & Verification will coexist. If you can do both a & b, you can prove the value in the value chain and get your "cut".

My @MarathonMP partner @AlexGorgoni shared this gem from @LeadEdgeCapital Now that every company shares their top line revenue and growth numbers on X and LinkedIn, this document is a good guide to startup information hiearchy :)

Not sure why Stanford wants to continue legacy preferences for the student admissions - stanforddaily.com/2025/08/06/sta…. Disappointed with them.


Hey @grok who are my 10 smartest mutuals?


Wow! Amazing team too!

It’s easy to fine-tune small models w/ RL to outperform foundation models on vertical tasks. We’re open sourcing Osmosis-Apply-1.7B: a small model that merges code (similar to Cursor’s instant apply) better than foundation models. Links to download and try out the model below!

Happy to share that @linear has raised a Series C at a $1.25B valuation, led by Accel. I’m proud of how far we’ve come while staying true to our way and values. In this next stage, Linear will be the purpose-built tool where teams, AI, and agents build software together.

So awesome to see Linear being tool of choice in this agentic world. Use linear to get exponential! Best wishes on this milestone!

We've keep on seeing fantastic growth @linear and are always looking to keep improving our infrastructure to make linear run faster, scale better and ship features quicker. We're looking for staff-level generalist backend/infra engineers who have seen it all, but can't keep of…

In April 2024, @brexHQ launched a pilot program to evaluate if a switch to Linear would increase the velocity and quality of how they build products. Here is what they found: linear.app/customers/brex
