NILAY@nilaymod·
Huge news: @CentralHQX has been acquired by @mercury! 24 months ago, we had zero customers and revenue. Since then: - Hundreds and hundreds of startups rely on Central - We've processed nearly $200M in payroll - 30% of our customers switched from traditional HR/payroll platforms - We built one of the first AI agents in Slack Turns out founders want outcomes, not just another dashboard. When we first met @immad, @MattRHeiman, and @rywiggs and the rest of the Mercury team, it just made sense. Most of our customers were already using them and they had the same obsession of helping startups and SMBs. And together, we can actually automate the entire back-office now. Grateful to our customers, investors and our entire team. Most importantly, thank you to my co-founders @jbwyme and @prankash. Couldn't have done this without y'all. More to come!

The solid stage booster used on Artemis are the same roughly that were used with the space shuttle It’s also the reason you see them spraying tons of water during rocket launches- to make it less loud

Fun fact: the first time they launched the space shuttle, the *noise* alone from the solid stage boosters reflecting off the launch pad almost ripped the wings off. Those things are powerful.

“We do these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard.” Godspeed, Artemis II.

@Replit has a double job in security, managing dev and prod for users. When the axios attack hit, layers of defense saved users: * Blocking postinstall scripts * Minimum package age policies * Limiting tools in the environment * Working with @SocketSecurity to get notified fast

Why MOIC is a BS Metric and IRR Matters More: "Most early-stage firms focus on MOIC, but MOIC is a bullshit metric compared to IRR. A fund can return 7x over 20 years and still only generate a teens IRR. If the go-forward IRR is not compelling, you have an obligation to your LPs to sell at least part of the position." @gokulr Love to hear your thoughts and reflections on this @joshk @MKRocks @honam @infoarbitrage @briannekimmel @NWischoff @pitdesi @nbt

Most podcasts are BS because they are fluffy and lack substance. This is the densest, most insightful episode you will listen to this year. @gokulr breaks down the 8 defensible moats you need for your company to be successful in a world of AI. 1. Data (Proprietary and inaccessible) 2. Workflow (Deeply embedded operations) 3. Regulatory (Licenses and contracts) 4. Distribution (Exclusive proprietary channels) 5. Ecosystem (Third-party platform reliance) 6. Network (Marketplace liquidity density) 7. Physical (Infrastructure and atoms) 8. Scale (Low cost through volume) (Links below)
