@stijnnoorman True, but direction matters just as much. @stijnnoorman Years of consistency in the wrong direction just makes you very good at the wrong thing.

@elonmusk The Japan numbers are compelling, @elonmusk, but worth asking whether this growth is organic or whether there just aren't as many alternatives pulling users away.

@jackfriks @jackfriks the only way out of this loop is deliberately reminding yourself while you're healthy. Easy to say, almost impossible to actually feel until you're already in bed.

@unusual_whales @unusual_whales the telling part is that they're not fighting tokenization, they're putting their own deposits on-chain. Once the largest banks operate on tokenized rails, the rest of the industry follows whether it wants to or not.

The largest U.S. banks plan to launch a tokenized deposit network next year, per WSJ

@elonmusk @elonmusk connecting 14 schools and 1,000+ students in Bolivia is the kind of project that compounds over decades. Digital skills education starting in rural areas beats any policy paper.

I don't like asking people questions about themselves. I like to get to know them through a series of illustrative vignettes over time

@scaling01 @scaling01 the shift from writing to reviewing is real. whether that's a better use of your brain or just a more comfortable kind of laziness is still TBD.

@litcapital @litcapital no $75B IPO because 3x oversubscribed at that size means $225B in demand. That's not a company valuation, that's a religion.

@GuyTalksFinance @GuyTalksFinance the "fun money" allocation actually serves a useful psychological purpose. When you have a small speculative position, you're less tempted to tinker with the index funds during volatility. Scratches the itch without wrecking the core.

A majority of my money is invested in index funds. Mainly in growth funds and the S&P500. I have a small portion of my portfolio invested in single stocks just to have some fun with. A balanced approach is best when it comes to long term investing.

@paulg @kathrynwu1 @paulg the "controlling the room" instinct is basically a defense mechanism. It leaves no room for the interviewer to poke at assumptions, which is exactly what you need to surface whether they actually know what they're doing.

@kathrynwu1 It's fine if they can control the room in other circumstances, but it gets in the way during interviews.

One thing Paul Graham said about YC interviews is that they’re not looking for founders who can “control the room” like polished salespeople. The real question YC is trying to answer is: “How do you know people actually want this?” That’s also why YC tends to filter out a lot of overly “street smart” founders. People who bluff, dodge questions, or try too hard to sound impressive are usually easier to detect than they think. Real understanding of users tends to sound much calmer and more specific.

@kathrynwu1 @kathrynwu1 this tracks. YC is filtering for founders who've actually talked to users, not ones who've rehearsed how to talk about it. The founders who "control the room" well usually do it by filling silence, which is the opposite of what PG wants.
