@rohindhar I know that house - beautiful spot. Congrats to you and the buyers!

Pleased to share my latest transaction as a San Francisco real estate agent! I represented the buyers on the off-market purchase one of the best houses I’ve ever seen in Potrero Hill at the “top of the hill” Featuring stunning views of the bay bridge, the city skyline, and bay, the home also has a flat backyard that backs up to the modern living room and open kitchen. Was fully renovated in 2018 The home is 4 bedrooms, 3 baths and two car garage parking with EV charger. This is the best house that’s come up for sale that’s in any proximity to the offices of the major the AI companies in the last two years The purchase price was $4.6MM Despite it being off market, there was quite a lot of competition for the home. And to put it mildly, it took an insane amount of execution by my clients to win, with an assist from me 😅 Major major congratulations to my clients Rohin Dhar, San Francisco real estate agent at your service! Please get in touch if I can help you with your home purchase in San Francisco 🙏

This is a plan for the 4th Department of Defense academy at the Presidio. The Frontier Academy will have 3 dedicated colleges for Space, Cyber, and Robotics. I think this will be great for the tech ecosystem and the country. 🇺🇸💪 Feedback welcome! 🧵1/16

Today I'm launching @asylumventures, a new venture firm dedicated to the creative act of building companies. Asylum's first $55 million fund is an embodiment of my belief that founders are artists, not assets:

All the Neo founders I met through demo day last year have been super impressive - definitely recommend applying

What’s the best “introduction to engineering management” book out there? The Founding Sales of engineering management.

@aarondfrancis Oh man, that's awesome! Thanks for recording it - I also loved the point you made about recognizing things you learn everywhere, like new words.

@alexmr I also recorded a podcast on your article years and years ago. It was such a good one! youtu.be/9Z6wkwtfThw

@alexmr hey alex! You had an article years ago called "Sponge Learning." Is that still online anywhere?

@fortelabs @reflectnotes @maccaw doing great work here

I would love a graph-based notetaking app that prioritizes: -ease of use over tight security -convenient sharing over privacy -good UX over customizability -fluid writing over bullet points -mobile over desktop -sustainable profitability over changing the world Can I have it?

@girdley @dzmitry9 @Molson_Hart @awilkinson Definitely coming back big after the wave. If you aren’t there meeting buyers then your competitor will be. Ergo, everyone goes.

@dzmitry9 @Molson_Hart @awilkinson If you buy Omicron is the last significant wave, then Q3/Q4 conference season will be banging. I wouldn't go to a conference now mid-Omicron.

I think conference businesses are about to have a helllllll of a year.

@cssasha I'm not, just a side project with some friends to invest in cool stuff we see :)

@alexmr Are you a VC now Alex?

Been a lot of fun doing some angel investing with this crew over the past year. If you need a small check and big companionship, now you know where to come.

We also like vertical SaaS, making us the weirdest thematic investor of all time twitter.com/bthdonohue/sta…

@DallasAptGP What’s his swing speed stretch goal he thinks he can achieve?

Banker invited me to a function where I’ll get to meet a dozen pro golfers tomorrow including Bryson Dechambeau. There will likely be a Q&A. What should I ask Bryson?

@malectro Ate some salad tonight and thought of this tweet

The problem with salad is too much chewing. Nobody talks about this.

@delk @agarwal

@agarwal I’ll match the next $1k in donations that come from this tweet.
