🚨Jay-Z anunciou um show para o dia 30 de maio na Filadélfia. #JayZ👀 Caso Beyoncé mantenha o cronograma padrão de lançamentos dos atos, a apresentação que marcará o retorno do rapper aos palcos acontecerá apenas um dia após a chegada do ACT III, prevista teoricamente para 29 de maio. A proximidade das datas levanta a possibilidade de que Beyoncé faça sua primeira aparição pública após o lançamento do novo álbum durante o evento. Nossa agenda até o momento: 04/05 — Met Gala 29/05 — Lançamento do ACT III 30/05 — Show de Jay-Z na Filadélfia

Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly-not skilled!

@tedlieu There we have one confirmed difference now: * Anthropic was going to require the model technically enforce that it cannot do these things. * OpenAI seems to only be asking the Pentagon to contractually promise not to do them.

Why did mother eat me alive?

This guy literally dropped Full Course OpenClaw in 6 Hour.

I was CRO at Flexport from 0 to 1,000,000,000 and I legitimately think we could’ve gone twice as fast if something like Monaco had existed then. Sam Blond is the destroyer of worlds. The AI saas apocalypse is here.

This got me frying so bad, look how fun and bright bad bunny Super Bowl performance is vs turning point trash 😭

Put together a quick analysis of the Brex exit based on an analysis of their cap table. Done relatively quickly, so pardon any errors! Funding history sourced from @CaplightData. Overall, it's a pretty big win. — The company probably minted well in excess of 100 millionaires. — Everyone who joined or invested in 2018 or earlier is probably pretty happy, some even ecstatic. — Those who invested / joined in 2020-21 probably aren't but that is a story that is true of almost every employee or investor in that period (private / public market). — Those who joined in late 2022 through today is probably doing reasonably fine. Common Stock TL;DR — liquidation Preference took a bit of a bite, but only for those who joined in 2021-22. Everyone else either did fine or really well. - Founders did very well (~$1B in total). There was a decent bit of dilution, particularly from healthy option pools over the course of 8-9 years. - Employees joining 2023-2025 would probably be roughly breakeven — they probably received RSUs priced in the $4-6B. - Employees joining 2021-2022 got stock at the peak. These would have been underwater RSUs or options. Most companies issued additional make-whole shares to those who stuck around. I'm sure Brex did this. However, those who joined then and left after a couple of years probably lost most of the value to their equity. - Employees joining 2020 did okay -- slightly above where they joined. Not commensurate with the risk, but honestly way better than most companies who raised at peak valuations in the COVID era. - Employees joining earlier did VERY well. I'd estimate 3-10x if they joined in 2018-19; and 10-100x if they joined in 2017-18. Investor TL;DR - Series D/D+ investors in 2021-21 (Tiger, Greenoaks) get money back but 0% IRR. TBH this is a win since most late stage investments in that vintage are tough. - Series C+ investors in 2020 (Kleiner, DST) get a modest return (1.3x) but suboptimal IRR (4%). Again, tough vintage. - Series C investors in 2018 (DST) get a decent return (2.75x) and 15% IRR. - Series B investors in 2018 (YC Continuity) gets an excellent return (12x) and IRR (39%) - Series A investors in 2017 (Ribbit) did fantastic (80x and 64% IRR) - YC worth calling out — the regular YC check probably netted out close to $100M, on an (I think) $120K check at the time. 800x in 9 years = 110% IRR ain't half bad. If you bake in YC continuity, a total of $600M on probably ~$40M invested.

Doing ‘Enterprise Sales’ in 2026… New Rules

How to do b2b: - if your offer doesn't boil down to: i will make/save you (the company) 10x more than i am charging you, then you are not going to make it as a company. - trust is everything. cold email / cold anything is dead. build authority in a niche by proving that you are an expert. - if you are not an expert in what you are attempting to sell to a business, pick something else. if you are an expert in nothing, spend more time becoming an expert and come back later. - your early customers are your golden tickets. take care of them, pamper them, go above and beyond for them. they are your case studies, your validation, and without them you are nothing. do not worry about your margin here. - you are the founder/ceo, you need to be on every single sales call until you are so large that you simply cannot afford to be. do not outsource selling until you will die unless you do. - very early on, do not niche down. try everything, say yes to everything, even if it is not core to the mission statement. you need leads, you need cash, and you need experience. only niche down when you can afford to turn people down. - "pivot hell" is the result of poor planning and picking a niche that you were not meant to win. if you pick the right problem and are actually capable of solving it, pivoting feels a lot less like hell and a lot more like a symptom of growing and gaining experience. - (hot take) you shouldn't really raise until you have at least a verbal agreement from a potential customer. until then you have no idea what you're building, who you're building for, how you're building it, how to deliver, and how to measure ROI. which makes you impossible to value both internally and to an investor, and this is not ideal.
