The generalization of this is that to be evil you probably amassed something (wealth, power etc). And you’re probably taking those things from other people (mostly legally) Depending on who you’re taking from who, that might make you evil to some people.
But you had to be pretty resourceful to begin with to take the stuff on the first place.
Chairman Birb Bernanke@Bonecondor
The honest to god reason there is so much evil in the world is that quite frankly, on average, evil people have their shit together

Company building is akin to goldmining but each company is like mining a different ore, on a different planet, with different terrain, and a different toolset
Career analysts fall short here so your best bet is someone who's struck gold once (ie ex founder). Because they will have understood the process so deeply they will also be useful when mining uranium copper etc.
A career analyst may be smart, sure, but their insights likely arent deep enough to carry over when the meta changes

the greatest trick sequoia ever pulled was convincing founders that the two year gs tmt analyst is who you need to help build a company

@andrew__reed surprised they havent watched enough body language ted talks to realize arms-crossed is standoffish

Working on a product. It adjusts the team page of the VC website to make sure everyone has their arms crossed

the major consumer apps over the last 10 years offered you the chance to get rich. that's it:
- tiktok
- twitter/x
- instagram
- robinhood
- coinbase
- skilled gaming / gambling
- lovable
- kalshi
- all of crypto
You were a creator/gambler who was escaping the rat race, and whatever you paid the app was the entry fee to the carnival

inventing infra & application teams from first principles

this has to do with how we organize our team. half the team builds primitives: sandboxes, memory, code execution subagents, security scanning, etc. the other half owns evals + hillclimbing. they combine those primitives into agents, iterate, a/b test, and push the primitives teams to make them better. centralizing the hillclimbing effort is important because distributed hillclimbing invariably leads to regression. conway’s law!

This must be like the 24th attempt at drive through voice agents but this time i do think it might actually work
Olivia Moore@omooretweets
Excited to announce @meetarc's $10.76M seed, led by @a16z! Arc brings quick service restaurants into the AI era, starting with drive-thru voice agents. Founders @maclennanm + @alihussaincs shipped products for the real world at Block - and Arc is live serving customers 👇

they have seen the halls of power/wealth and decided its really not all that & its more fun to hang out with here with the rest of us

@khaslett basically there is this weird cottage industry of wannabe-fixers, mostly attorneys, who say they can get your pardon application 'to the right people'.

lose has lower ev in my opinion -- those vc partner roles are non-partner track in many cases -- should only do vc after successful exit or with a good angel track record. new startup - maybe? good co is something you could have done after college anyway?
I think this is why pg isnt a big advocate for dropping out. outcome distribution is the same & its a one-way door
English
@broadglow Outcome = win, billionaire
Outcome = lose, fail upward into VC partner role, new startup, get scooped by good co. But lose college years
English
@broadglow On a pure expectations basis dropping out always makes sense. But on a life experiences basis I think not
A few extra years grinding your youth in sf isn’t really so great as college memories
