Over the last 2 weeks, I’ve largely worked out of the ICU. My dad has been there for the last 12 days and on a ventilator for the last 9…it’s been a tough time for me and my family. In preparation for our AGM today, last night I spent time with our founders, LPs and employees, many of which have known me for >10 years. They’ve seen my entire venture career and the better part of my adult life - they’ve seen me raise kids, start Equal and deal with all the chaos of the last decade. I’ve gone to their weddings, been on vacations with them and been there with them through their own tragedies. The good, the bad and the ugly. Yes, these are “work” relationships, but they’re also some of the closest people in my life outside of my family. When you work as hard as I do, the lines blur due to the sheer amount of time you spend with each other. These are REAL relationships. I cherish them and spending time with those people was about the best I’ve felt since this whole nightmare started. Folks say if you “love what you do, you will never work a day in your life” More importantly, love who you work with and everyday will feel like a blessing

Another sign of lameness in adulthood is when your weekend plans consist of yard work, taking care of your plants and watching HGTV. Like, damn, sad for y’all.

There is something fundamentally out of balance when educational institutions function "not so much a sculptor as an appraiser." Keep your eyes on trends around the unbundling of education - so much yet to happen in this space

I wrote a post about how @techstars & @ycombinator are the new age school. linkedin.com/pulse/20140909… Just read a phenomenal piece written by @byrneseyeview about how YCombinator is unbundling education medium.com/swlh/y-combina… I couldn't agree more. #education #lifelonglearning

My university just announced that it’s dumping Blackboard, and there was much rejoicing. Why is Blackboard universally reviled? There’s a standard story of why "enterprise software" sucks. If you’ll bear with me, I think this is best appreciated by talking about… baby clothes!
