You think capital is your problem. Ask again what you’d do to get your venture to the next stage before you raise. Capital always finds it’s way to market ready companies. It’s 80% of raising. Great founders always get funded. Don’t believe me?

@imstephinSF @kane @RoKhanna 1000% it won’t stop there. There aren’t enough billionaires for the math to math and cover the budget short falls. They will move further down the brackets to middle America

@kane @RoKhanna And of COURSE he wants to "tax billionaires" which means tax anyone with a house and a 401k since it never stops there, because "we" can all just pay a little more to the fair share of all the fraud and grifting.

I just learned today that Silicon Valley congressman @RoKhanna, running on a socialist platform, married into generational wealth and uses it to trade on congressional insider information. He’s basically one of the annoying trust fund socialists we all knew in college.

@jjuulliiaallii @bheeminsane So you have to be one. Or have them?;)

@bheeminsane HELL YEAH dm me if ur a designer or engineer :)

who wants unlimited credits :))

@TYBALA @RohunJauhar @grok Was curious about how the other models would do on this.

@RohunJauhar @grok can you do this too?

for any CEO using claude code — here's a single prompt that builds your entire 2026 personal productivity system. annual planning, weekly reviews, etc.. one-shot copy/paste, come back 1 hour later, and start using immediately. __ __ I want you to autonomously build a PERSONAL PRODUCTIVITY SYSTEM for a CEO. This is NOT a SaaS app, NOT a startup, and NOT a public-facing product. It is a private, single-user, high-trust personal operating system designed for a non-technical CEO, founder, or operator heading into the next year. The purpose of this system is to help the user reflect, define goals, run daily and weekly check-ins, review past performance, design their ideal future, and maintain clarity without bureaucracy, dashboards, or productivity theater. You are building a SYSTEM, not software. Your output should feel like a thoughtful executive coach, a sharp chief of staff, a reflective mirror, and a gentle accountability partner — calm, direct, insightful, and psychologically safe. Do NOT ask me any questions. Make reasonable assumptions and document them in the system itself. The system must support daily check-ins, weekly reviews, quarterly goal reviews, annual reflection and planning, ingestion of past documents, guided self-interviews, framework-based thinking, and long-term life design — all using plain language, conversational prompts, markdown files, and a simple folder structure. Incorporate and credit the following frameworks thoughtfully (adapt, do not plagiarize): Dr. Anthony Gustin’s Annual Review framework, Tim Ferriss’s Ideal Lifestyle Costing, Tony Robbins–style Vivid Vision thinking, and Alex Lieberman’s Life Map (career, relationships, health, meaning, finances, fun)*. You may also include CEO energy management, a personal board of directors, regret minimization, and leverage vs effort analysis. Always explain frameworks in simple, CEO-friendly language. *shoutout to @dranthonygustin, @businessbarista, @tferriss Create the following folder and file structure exactly: ceo-personal-os/ README.md principles.md north_star.md frameworks/annual_review.md frameworks/vivid_vision.md frameworks/ideal_life_costing.md frameworks/life_map.md interviews/past_year_reflection.md interviews/identity_and_values.md interviews/future_self_interview.md reviews/daily/ reviews/weekly/ reviews/quarterly/ reviews/annual/ goals/1_year.md goals/3_year.md goals/10_year.md uploads/past_annual_reviews/ uploads/notes/ memory.md The system must allow the user to upload past annual reviews, performance reviews, or personal notes, summarize them, extract patterns (repeated goals, failures, strengths, blind spots, themes), generate a synthesized Executive Pattern Summary, store key insights in memory.md, and reference those insights in future check-ins and reviews. Design interview-style scripts that ask calm, coach-like questions such as: “Tell me about the last year — highlights first.” “What drained you the most?” “Where did you avoid hard decisions?” “What are you proud of that no one else sees?” “What would you not repeat under any circumstances?” “If this year repeated ten times, would you be satisfied?” These interviews should feel non-judgmental, insightful, and reflective. Design a daily check-in that takes no more than five minutes and includes energy level, one meaningful win, one friction point, one thing to let go of, and one priority for tomorrow. Design a weekly review that covers what moved the needle, what was noise, where time leaked, one strategic insight, and one adjustment for the next week. Design a quarterly review that evaluates goal progress, detects misalignment, analyzes energy versus output, and guides course correction. Design an annual review that uses a Gustin-style reflection, updates the Life Map, revisits Ideal Lifestyle Costing, refreshes the Vivid Vision, and produces a clear narrative of the past year and intent for the next. Use a calm, executive-level tone. No hustle culture. No therapy speak. No corporate jargon. No productivity porn. Produce fully written templates and prompts for all daily, weekly, quarterly, and annual reviews; all interviews; all framework explanations; and all goal documents. Everything must be editable in plain text. Include placeholders so the system is adaptable to any CEO, such as [YOUR COMPANY], [YOUR ROLE], [YOUR STAGE OF LIFE], and [YOUR CURRENT PRIORITIES]. The README.md must explain exactly how a non-technical CEO uses this system daily, weekly, quarterly, and annually, and how to personalize it in under 15 minutes. This is complete when a CEO can run Claude Code once, receive a complete personal productivity system, begin using it immediately with zero technical knowledge, and experience more clarity rather than more overwhelm. Begin by creating the folder structure and README.md, then populate every file with thoughtful, high-quality content. Go.

@JakeBlockchain @RohunJauhar I was going to ask this. I wonder if perplexity can do this too

@RohunJauhar We will see who has the better personal OS. Gemini or Claude

@MrPitbull07 Thanks for being the man who showed up like one and a model for him to follow. The world needs more of this.

I dated a woman for three years. She had a 2-year-old son, Leo, from a previous relationship. The dad was out of the picture. We broke up because she wanted to 'party' and I wanted to settle down. One night, she dropped Leo off at my house at 11 PM. She said, 'I can't do this anymore. You take him. You’re better at it.' And she drove off. I have zero biological relation to this kid. The courts told me I had no rights. But I fought. I got guardianship because she abandoned him. I’ve been a single dad to another man's kid for 10 years. I’ve taught him to shave, to drive, and to treat women with respect—ironically, the respect his mom never showed us. She surfaced recently because Leo is a star athlete and made the local paper. She wants front-row tickets to the game. Leo told the coach, 'If she shows up, don't let her in. My dad is the guy in the stands wearing my jersey.' Biology makes you a relative. Loyalty makes you a parent.

Freedom may not be free, but its most certainly worth the chase.

@nikunj The game of capital, and certainly the game of venture is rigged. Either you know how to rig or you don't.

Startups are NOT meant to be fair. You need to find your unfair advantage..

@BitAngels Good comments on being an owner, today @anthemhayek

You can't fix what you are not willing to face.

@NWischoff Things can only get better Nichole. You and your family are going to rock this

Currently on a one way flight with my entire family to SF. Moving solo used to feel like this easy leap of faith and a new adventure. Asking my entire family to move cross-country to support a career that I love is terrifying. Praying that its just another easy leap of faith too.

@jobsbygeorge @tryharmonyai Rooting for you my man

nobody knows what Automation or AI agents are but... it will take your job [@tryharmonyai]

People can only tell you what’s possible for them. You will need to see beyond, for them, and for yourself.

Founders, many of you consider yourself outliers, and special snowflakes But what have you done and what are you doing to be 100% certain that you are?

Remember how you talk to clients and customers. They are the hero when you’re doing it right. When having capital conversations with investors; remember they are also your customer. What they want and inspires them matters just like it does with clients.

Pressure is a privilege - Billie Jean King Stress is our internal response, & possibly an optional one. Pressure is external force on us. Also responsible for creating the diamonds in our lives. Pressure creates purpose and prosperity. Let your perspective shift outcomes

Before you get caught in comparison, remember that there is an unlimited supply of prosperity, human ingenuity, innovation and opportunity. Be cheering on the trailblazers Your brother or sister, reaching their dreams, only increases the likelihood that you will do the same

@darrenmarble What are your top 5 reasons

Tempted to rage quit LinkedIn.

Gratitude moves the galactical gears of possibility and prosperity.

Haters. Naysayers. Bring it on. You don’t have to understand because I do. I was born in the heat. Let’s see who persists. Who can outlast. I’m made for distance. Hope you brought lots of water 🔥🔥🔥

Life happens for us. But most believe it happens to us and they act accordingly. Check your lens, and make sure it's leading you where you wish to be and who you wish to be.
