@barryoreilly Hi mate. It’s been a while. Product @agussoler is working on -> pausa.co is all about that

I asked what people want most from an AI assistant for personal growth. 47% said: “Reflect with me weekly” Not goals or burnout detection. Reflection. In an era obsessed with speed, it’s a reminder: Leadership isn’t just about output, it’s about perspective. #ai #leadership

@joulee 🙋‍♂️humans connecting with humans… dunno about “dating”

I really really want to make an AI dating app. Who is working on AI dating?!

Bon Jovi - Blaze Of Glory (Oscars 1991) What a masterpiece.

Two beautiful and inspiring locations packed. In an era of Ai powered abundance… will everybody want to go to the same places? Or will new places be created / curated? Been thinking a lot about this after seeing the megatatch aerial views in St Barth for NYE.

Fellow Angelenos, The devastation to our city and community is unthinkable. The colossal efforts of our Los Angeles Fire Department cannot be overstated, and lives, homes, and businesses have been saved thanks to their unwavering commitment to fighting a good fight. But this fight is far from over. Due to budget deficits in the Los Angeles Fire Department, which left them under-resourced, the inconceivable has become reality. Los Angeles Fire Chief Crowley and her team of firefighters and paramedics are desperately in need of funding. Today, Tina and I pledge $5 million to the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation, to be used at its discretion, so that Chief Crowley and her team can continue their heroic work across the City and the greater Los Angeles area. I am calling on all of those who are blessed with the means to give back at any level and respectfully ask you to join in reaching the goal of $20 million in donations for the Foundation. This funding will ensure essential equipment reaches our emergency responders, including structure fire helmets, personal protective equipment, bulldozers, and multi-functional fast response vehicles that are utilized in both firefighting and medical triage. Together, we can send critical support to the front lines and protect our community from further catastrophe and hopefully prevent another one in the future. The outpouring of support the city has seen over the past week gives me hope that when we stand together, we win. My family and I are so grateful for all this city has given us and we will always stand shoulder to shoulder with fellow Angelenos. Let’s stay diligent, steadfast, and committed to saving and rebuilding. Please visit supportlafd.kindful.com to donate. God bless our great city, Rick

One of my biggest frustrations as CEO was the lack of curiosity of sales reps (and their leaders). I’d say that most of these need to be traced to the Discovery Calls. No action generally meant that the prospect didn’t think the problem was big enough of a priority.

Per @lightspeedvp survey of 154 venture-backed sales teams, the #1 reason deals don’t close is “no action”. And the #3 is “went silent”. These aren’t reasons. These are non-reasons. If you really want to know why, you have to push the team harder.

These acquisitions are considered "small" but they're still life changing for entrepreneurs. This is why I love building @acquiredotcom.

🚨 Hey folks I got something to announce: I am launching a new investment fund brand: Prototype Capital 🦾 A globally-active first-check investment fund. We focus on cool stuff that's technical hard to achieve, but also still new enough to be a bit weird – globally. Think Robotics in Eastern Europe, AI in SF, Software remotely, OpenSource SaaS, Space-tech in India, Reindustrialization of Europe, AI Agents in Brazil, among many others… - $100k-$200k - we say we invest early and we actually mean it - with every 5th investment we are the first to commit - only 6% of all ivnestments were after seed - the brand will be a larger umbrella for all kinds of stuff from our own prototypes 😬, to streams, to communities, to investinpublic transparency efforts - this is legally speaking a rebrand of my previous solo GP fund so we got track record to proof - we do about 15-20 investments per year Link in thread! 🔥 Please RT if you got a sec – Appreciate your launch support 🙏❤️

Hermoso el milagro de ver ángeles en la tierra. En nuestra tierra. Precioso homenaje de @kitokp. 🇦🇷❤️

@asallen Paper was an awesome. Probably felt similar when I saw “Mural” as the project name of their Freehand product. Feel flattered my friend.

Hey, an onscreen dial to scrub through undo history… that's clever. Where have I seen this…? 🤔

@davidjbland Did I introduce you two? I believe assumptions language (and the “evidence vs no evidence vector in assumptions mapping) would be spectacular for board collaboration.

@alex Amal in Miami super popular right now. Come visit.
