There's 2 emergent cultures coming out of the zoomer generation and it's striver wasians vs permanent underclass tiktok wireheads
a16z@a16z

"There's something about this culture of young people coming up where they're not afraid of hard work. They're not afraid to pop a Zyn and work at the factory all day." Why @KTmBoyle is bullish on Zoomers: "The best quote that summarizes why I'm so bullish on the Zoomers is Alysa Liu after winning her gold. She said, 'I love to struggle. It makes me feel alive.'" "It's the opposite of the morose theater kid vibes that we got from the millennial generation, where everything was very different in how they operated." "Like Jack Hughes—they get their teeth knocked out, they come back and say, 'It's not even a question. Of course I got my teeth knocked out. It's hockey.'" "And that means we're seeing totally different companies than we saw out of the Facebook diaspora—which was very much the Harvard dorm room—I like to work on my computer, I like to build apps. It's a totally different style of founder." "The next generation is so patriotic and bullish on the American project. I think this generation cares a lot about the country. And it shocked us. @davidu and I talk about this all the time—for some of these young people, they were not born on September 11th. They have no recollection of the things that the millennials remember, or anyone older than us remembers, but they care about the country." "They look up to people like @elonmusk, to people like Alex Karp. They look up to people who've been doing the hard thing for 20, 30 years and they want to do it too." "It's a different generation of founder that we've had the privilege of seeing very, very early on. I think the rest of the country is going to define tech and Silicon Valley by these people for the next 10–20 years." From @nypost

Mayor Zohran Mamdani recently got the political equivalent of what baseball players call a brushback pitch — a fastball deliberately thrown dangerously close to a batter’s head in order to intimidate the player, who must flinch or duck to avoid a devastating injury. The mayor is getting municipal chin music from the major bond-rating agencies: Moody’s formally changed its outlook on the city’s finances from “stable” to “negative,” and S&P Global Ratings opined that Mamdani’s budget plan will “make it difficult to sustain budgetary balance beyond fiscal years 2026 and 2027.” The negative outlook from the agencies is a warning, writes columnist Errol Louis. The next step could be a downgrade of the city’s bond rating, which would raise the cost of borrowing money for routine city operations. Mamdani maintains that the decision to revise the outlook is premature, pointing out that the city’s overall credit rating remains strong and has not been downgraded. But the message from Wall Street seemed crystal clear: Unless Mamdani adopts a more fiscally conservative approach, we will punish City Hall in the markets.

Soon token projects will do investor relations better than equities. Onchain data will eventually lower overhead and provide real-time transparency for investors. Supercycle, unironically.

It is 100% true that great men and women of the past were not sitting around moaning about their feelings. I regret nothing.

Great men of history had little to no introspection. The personality that builds empires is not the same personality that sits around quietly questioning itself. @pmarca and I discuss what we both noticed but no one talks about: David: You don't have any levels of introspection? Marc: Yes, zero. As little as possible. David: Why? Marc: Move forward. Go! I found people who dwell in the past get stuck in the past. It's a real problem and it's a problem at work and it's a problem at home. David: So I've read 400 biographies of history’s greatest entrepreneurs and someone asked me what the most surprising thing I’ve learned from this was [and I answered] they have little or zero introspection. Sam Walton didn't wake up thinking about his internal self. He just woke up and was like: I like building Walmart. I'm going to keep building Walmart. I'm going to make more Walmarts. And he just kept doing it over and over again. Marc: If you go back 400 years ago it never would've occurred to anybody to be introspective. All of the modern conceptions around introspection and therapy, and all the things that kind of result from that are, a kind of a manufacture of the 1910s, 1920s. Great men of history didn't sit around doing this stuff. The individual runs and does all these things and builds things and builds empires and builds companies and builds technology. And then this kind of this kind of guilt based whammy kind of showed up from Europe. A lot of it from Vienna in 1910, 1920s, Freud and all that entire movement. And kind of turned all that inward and basically said, okay, now we need to basically second guess the individual. We need to criticize the individual. The individual needs to self criticize. The individual needs to feel guilt, needs to look backwards, needs to dwell in the past. It never resonated with me.
