Very very very big day tomorrow. And meanwhile the world is on fire.

If you're not sure what to get someone for their birthday, the answer is almost always: a great pair of socks.

I wonder how many times AI has ghostwritten the phrase "If you're building, keep going" on behalf of some unsuspecting would-be thought leader for their weekly linkedin content.

Ok I admit I haven’t posted here in a while but can someone explain to me why all of a sudden my entire feed is full of bunnies?? 🐰

At this point I would pay Uber just to make the in-app uber One ads go away once and for all.

I cannot emphasize enough how much stories like this are a form of uncritical advertising for AI companies. I understand the impulse to take them at their word when they wonder aloud if their giant matrix multiplication engines are about to become sentient, but it should be resisted.

So if 13 donuts are a “bakers dozen”, what’s the name for the 11 drinking glasses/dinner plates/anything fragile that I inevitably end up with when I buy a dozen and immediately break the first one?

I used to be snarky about my in laws being pack rats but now when we visit my kids spend hours playing with viewmasters, transformers and an etch a sketch.

The upside of these tariffs is that perhaps we all will stop buying junk we don’t need. The downside is literally everything else.

When I posted this last month I thought that was a global trade war. Lol. Little did I know that just a few weeks later…

I’ve spent eight long years helping women access capital. Can you imagine what would happen if they suddenly didn't need to? ...I believe we're about to find out. My latest for @fortunemagazine.bsky.social - seedstrapping, tiny teams, and how AI will blow the doors of entrepreneurship wide open.

@skylight.social is not a TikTok clone! It's a great video app built on the ATproto that will only become stronger as the network (people/content/apps) grows. @mcuban.bsky.social & @lesliefeinzaig.bsky.social backing them is the icing on the cake. /tip @techmeme.com techcrunch.com/2025/04/01/m...

In just 10 weeks, @buildwithtori.com & @reedharmeyer.bsky.social built a tiktok alternative, got the investment @mcuban.bsky.social, and grew their beta so fast that it no longer fit on testflight. I'm proud to be the second check in. Congratulations @skylight.social!

No, I will not be hosting any events for andressen-horowitz' sponsored tech weeks this year. Thanks for asking.

After reviewing 100s of job applicants, here's the one phrase I did not realize was so common and will try to never use again: "at the intersection of x, y and z". (Sharing not to criticize but bc I bet you didn't know this either!)

Posted a job on LinkedIn - free version - and hit the maximum number of applicants within 2 hours. I mean, I'm flattered so many people want to work with me! But also, LinkedIn jobs is a racket? The job post got delisted and shut off unless I pay $10/day.

We are at the point where I'm not sure if we'll get in more trouble if we include or exclude the sentence "we are an equal opportunity employer" in a job posting.

I am legitimately confused. Did the ERA actually become law because Biden said it did? Doesn't the archivist actually have to publish it? What is even happening here??

Parents joined Linkedin. So far, two thumbs up, highly recommend ❤️

I've been fully, like FULLY offline since Dec. 21st. I've avoided social media since getting back, to try to prolongue the incredible inner peace I got from living sans notifications for a little bit :) Only back online to send a message of love to all my friends in LA. Praying for you. #LongLA

Just had an aborted landing over lax and I’m so glad to be alive 😱

I have figured it out. The reason VCs love to raise follow on funds so fast is because all investments look great a year or less after you make them.

How can anyone see this and not be furious that as a nation we do this to our children.
