@romzimmer Sort of. He has to make the very best founders like him. But that's only about 20 people a year. And it doesn't matter much what anyone else thinks.
English
Some people criticize Garry, but this excerpt from the latest Social Radars episode is a good example of how insiders feel about how he's doing. The 3 of us in this conversation are 3/5 of YC's board.
Garry Tan@garrytan
I am so thankful for @paulg @jesslivingston @bchesky @cjoneslevy for believing me and selecting me to be the President & CEO of YC. To be able to lead this brilliant band of partners is beyond the best job I’ve ever had! If you love what you do, you never work a day in your life

@eriqbre @Mylovanov As a european it has been equally frustrating seeing our leaders having no strategic spine other than Macron and Draghi. They saw this coming but noone listened before it was too late.
English
@Mylovanov I think we don’t hate Europe but we feel they are freeloading on America and not taking responsibility for their own shit
English
Tucker Carlson: If Europe is not an ally of the United States, then China rules the world. Europe needs to be an ally.
We came from Europe. Basically Europe produced us.
There are people in the US government who really hate Europe. I don't understand why.
English
@Vilhelm_Freedom @cursor_ai Yeah. Would love a SWEbench score

@thesamparr @_IronicallyMe_ @thesamsparr His handle was so similar even the real Sam Parr mistook the handle for his own 😄
English
Incredible. Seems too good too be true.
Cooper Mitchell@homegymcoop
This guy is training in the home gym of the future. Incredibly compact with insane amounts of versatility.
English
@thesamparr Also, why does he have to set the weight? If you’re already making a technical product, then give it memory and a progression algorithm
English
@andreasklinger @ConnorAllenEU @WallStreetMav Also the intent is exactly what you’re aiming your critique at. Thankfully Europe is lucky to have such competent people that are not fallen prey to this propaganda in the same way we’ve seen Silicon Valley fallen completely off the cliff and into insanity.
English
@ConnorAllenEU @WallStreetMav no that's just pushing propaganda
if you have issues focus on facts and solution not vibes
sidenote: good propaganda always uses things that have a "kernel of truth"
English
Britain, Germany, Belgium, France and Sweden are in a race for which becomes the first Islamic country in Europe.
They just keep importing more and more fake refugees every chance they get.
Who is paying for this intentional elimination of the indigenous people and culture?
English
@RasmusJarlov Absurd hvis sandt. Kan du få andre til at bekræfte. For så står SletteMette med en lortesag 🤣

Nu bliver det virkelig underligt.
Frederiksen forsøger nu at påstå, at jeg slet ikke var i det forhandlingslokale på Marienborg, hvor hun sagde til os, at hun ønskede at afskaffe store bededag som en del af et nyt regeringsgrundlag.
Vi sad lige overfor hinanden. Søren, Mai, Mette og jeg på den ene side. Frederiksen, Martin Justesen og et par andre på den anden side af bordet.

@Bgrew11 @MichalHoek3 @dpstocks45 @WarMonitor3 We’re not preventing you from taking it. We’re exposing you to the rest of the world. Denmark is by every possible metric one of the best societies in the world. Courageous, trustworthy and loyal. The world would react dramatically different seeing the US invade us than Iran
English
@MichalHoek3 @dpstocks45 @WarMonitor3 Is that in your dreams ? We have only 25% of our military in Iran right now and in 2 weeks we decimated the country. Imagine what just 25% or 50% of our military power would do in Greenland.
English
Denmark had seriously prepared for a possible US attack on Greenland earlier this year, troops that were sent under the guise of exercise were equipped with explosives and prepared to blow key runways and bridges-DR
Wow...
English
@CollinsPardue @RasmusJarlov @Oceanbreeze473 If we only could trust that that was the motivation from Trump. Then I honestly think a lot more people would get behind him.
English
So the USA should have liberated France when Germany invaded and suppressed France's people. YET, we let the poor Iranians be suppressed and MURDERED by their bullshit regime while Europe sits back and doesn't give a shit. The USA is the only one fighting for the Iranians while everyone else bitches from the sideline.
English
I bet the French were glad the US didn’t say that in 1941. 
English
@paulg How do you even comprehend the level of success you’ve managed to achieve in marriage? Not only does she naturally make the cameras job easy - she also has a personality to outcompete that quality.
English
One of Jessica's most mystifying qualities is how often she matches the places we go. Almost to the point of camouflage sometimes. I don't think she consciously plans it. She just has this uncannily powerful fashion sense.
English
@pelledragsted Ansvaret ligger jo at arbejde på det man har opnået, så der netop ikke er nogen der kan tage dit livs værk fra dig. Din klassekamp er forræderisk mod Danmarks sammenhængskraft. Din retorik maler velstand op som lottogevinster. Den annulerer arbejdet og de valg folk har kæmpet med
Dansk
Tror godt der kan findes en lagerarbejder eller sosu det gerne vil bytte, ofre sig og påtage sig det tunge ansvar for både formue og skattepligt😉
Andreas Steno Larsen@AndreasSteno
Jeg er flasket op i Danmark, og jeg vil gerne betale tilbage til det samfund, som har givet mig en god opvækst. Jeg vil også gerne hjælpe dem, som har mindre end mig selv – men hvornår er det nok? Jeg befinder mig i den øverste ene procent her og har i de seneste år betalt 10-12 gange så meget i skat på årsbasis som en gennemsnitsperson i Danmark. Jeg ved ikke, hvornår noget er rimeligt eller urimeligt, men jeg tror måske, at jeg er ved at nå min grænse. (Og det siger jeg uden den fjerneste lyst til at fraflytte verdens bedste land.)

@ChrHallum “Innovation afhænger af et godt uddannelsessystem” - blæs lige din egen naivitet op på fuld blus for alle at se. Innovationslaget MANGLER KAPITAL!! Enhver innovationssucces rejser ud af landet, fordi vi ikke har ressourcerne til at hjælpe dem med at blive virkelig store.
Dansk
Ved EU-konference netop nu støtter nobelprisvinder Joseph Stiglitz forslaget om en dansk formueskat og tilbageviser kritikerne: Frygten for rigmandsflugt er overdrevne og innovation afhænger mere af et godt uddannelsessystemet end lav skat på de rige, siger han. Meget enig.

@blockgraze @nic_carter @joekent16jan19 The problem is when the only way a person can reason is through ideology, then only their ideological aligned foes makes sense to them
English
@nic_carter @joekent16jan19 the guy with access to the actual intelligence resigned in protest
it seems pretty clear how to make sense of it
English
After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.

BREAKING: Nye tal viser, at de allerrigeste er langt rigere, end de officielle formuestatistikker viser:
- Top 1% ejer 237 mia. kr. mere end antaget
- Den gennemsnitlige person i top 1% ejer 68 mio. kr., hvilket er 10 mio. kr., end hidtil antaget

@pelledragsted Men hvad godt nytter det at ansætte folk til et stykke arbejde der er unødvendigt? Det burde være en god nyhed at profitabilitet pr FTE er høj? Vi har massere af arbejde til folk. Så længe afskedigelsen har været respektfuld.
Dansk
Det er jo barokt.
Gigantbanken Nordea havde sidste år et overskud på over 30 milliarder. Nu nedlægger de 1500 job.
Det er bl.a. den virksomhed, Venstre vil forgylde med deres økonomiske plan.
En skattelettelse på 252 millioner - en kvart milliard - mener Venstre, Nordea fortjener.
Jeg vil hellere støtte arbejderen, pensionisten og børnefamilien end storbankerne. #dkpol

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.

@spell_slinger85 @steven_pifer Demeaning? We looked up to you like a little brother to a big brother. You guys were the elite. You made the best of everything. We would take bullets for you! We TOOK bullets for you! But then you started to get deranged - abusive, egotistical. We reject that, but miss old you.
English
@steven_pifer You fuckers have been demeaning Americans for decades, acting all smug and superior all while relying on us. Get fucked and defend yourselves.
English
It turns out that demeaning European allies, pushing entire financial burden of supporting Ukraine on to them, and not consulting them before launching war of choice has consequences.

Germany rejects Trump’s proposal to participate in the Strait of Hormuz operation. German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius: "What does Trump expect a handful of European frigates to do that the powerful US Navy cannot? This is not our war, and we didn't start it."

@vitaliykulikov @DudespostingWs At least deodorant and shaving equipment.

@DudespostingWs Stop promoting such stupid staged videos.
Those videos aren't about useless female stuff, but about shaming men for their prehistoric minimal living. All men have plenty of goods to look after their bodies and lifestyles.
