@DraperVC @HeyTPerk @digitalherring heh... I am leaning in because I could feel the heat of the rubber cement on the "Hot Mail" box burning to my left! Dripps of fire on the grass below... no AI or photoshop here....

In 1993, Tony Perkins ( @HeyTPerk ) produced the first edition of Red Herring ( @digitalherring ) out of a spare office at Draper Associates on Seaport Court in Redwood City.
It was two colors and printed on cheap paper with a psychedelic cover designed by VR pioneer Jaron Lanier.
By 1996, the magazine had a shiny cover, national distribution, and revenues that eventually topped $20 million. Acquisition offers came in above $100 million before the dotcom market collapsed. Ad revenue for tech publications went to zero and Red Herring shut down, but Tony didn't stop.
He co-founded Silicon Valley Bank ( @SiliconVlyBank ) and built The Churchill Club (the first community gathering in the Valley) while still at the bank. He launched Upside Magazine and co-wrote "The Internet Bubble", a book that called the dotcom crash before it happened. He started AlwaysOn, one of the first tech blogs and built conference businesses that drew tens of thousands of attendees. He also created Cryptonite to cover the Bitcoin economy.
He coined "Global Silicon Valley."
There are now 3.2 million tech publications, blogs, and podcasts, but Tony launched the entire category.
There are hundreds of major tech conferences worldwide today, but Tony can say that he ran the first ones.
The Red Herring started in our spare office.
The photo from the 1996 cover featured @TimDraper and Steve Jurvetson ( @FutureJurvetson ) in suits with the Draper mailbox burning behind them and it still hangs at Bucks of Woodside.

@PeterSchiff @elonmusk The analytical path of cynicism and doom is intellectually lazy and lacks imagination of future trends. Betting against TSLA / Elon / BTC will likely prove to be monumentally wrong.

@surajit_ghosh2 Looks like the separation phase plume.

@Jason When I hear Musk speak or read anything about him. I get this sense he genuinely cares about humanity, like he has its best interest in mind. I get none of that from Altman. Quite the opposite, he’s the kid on the playground you always know is up to no good, you can feel it.

@allergictoguac @realDonaldTrump At 19s I noticed it. Seems like it. Good message, crazy times we live in.

@Rick_UM @WallStreetMav Little rocket not go so fast, just up and down. SpaceX go way fast…fast re entry, lots of heat.

@PaulZeise You do realize that governmental agencies have been subjected to annual audits for decades, yes?
English

The government was never meant to be run like a company. Its bottom line isn’t profit margins, it’s people.
The notion that the government should be run like a business is an absurd one.

Starship departs for Mars at the end of next year, carrying Optimus.
If those landings go well, then human landings may start as soon as 2029, although 2031 is more likely.
