@garrytan I think we can all agree that every generation has a "cool" that most fake enjoying and less than 20% truly live. By the way, ever try fake smiling? The body reacts as though ... ;)

When self abandonment for fear of ideological fallout is the norm, you can't even have a conversation about how to make systems better.

@audreyt Persimmons… sweetness of sharing. Thank you @audreyt for such a simple way to increase our joy & goodwill. 🥢😋

@pmarca you are hilarious @pmarca

I ain't fking skipping.

@joannagtweets I just felt something like this 3 times a day for 9 days in South Asia. The day I landed all the DEI programs for women leaders I came to serve were deemed to no longer exist. I had to build each preso while in front of the room, while gently asking who are you? How can I help?

From horror show to triumph! This is the moment when pianist Maria Joao Pires realises - as the orchestra starts to play - that she has learned the wrong piece for a concert. With no sheet music to fall back on, she has to keep calm and carry on. She is AMAZING. As is conductor Riccardo Chailly, who shows he’s surely the cheerleader we all want in our corner. Belief and bravery in action! Mozart’s Piano Concerto in D minor, my Stop the Clock piece @ClassicFM today…

@sama @slow_developer I’m so sorry you are going through health challenges with your child. Sending you good energy

@slow_developer taking care of my kid in the hospital. the team has got this!

GPT-4.5 is ready! good news: it is the first model that feels like talking to a thoughtful person to me. i have had several moments where i've sat back in my chair and been astonished at getting actually good advice from an AI. bad news: it is a giant, expensive model. we really wanted to launch it to plus and pro at the same time, but we've been growing a lot and are out of GPUs. we will add tens of thousands of GPUs next week and roll it out to the plus tier then. (hundreds of thousands coming soon, and i'm pretty sure y'all will use every one we can rack up.) this isn't how we want to operate, but it's hard to perfectly predict growth surges that lead to GPU shortages. a heads up: this isn’t a reasoning model and won’t crush benchmarks. it’s a different kind of intelligence and there’s a magic to it i haven’t felt before. really excited for people to try it!

@johncoogan @jordihays Wow. It’s a Lost in Space remake.

I will be forever thankful that Marc's tweet led me and @jordihays to uncover the connection between Black Rock City (Burning Man) and BlackRock (the investment company).

Great news! Well deserved @Astra

@sofianeflarbi What is the project

I want to send out a deep and heartfelt thank you to everyone who’s given our project a shot over these first two days. Couldn’t be more grateful to all of you for trusting this super early and experimental project with your time and money. Makes all the hard work worth it

@yashar beautifully said. Thank you @johnlegend

John Legend, a native of Springfield, Ohio, discusses the influx of Haitian immigrants, the spread of misinformation and disinformation about them, and recent attacks by Trump and his allies.

@TheCartelDel GOOoooOOOO! Yes!!! Style and Precision. LOVE!!!!

The most "Main Character Energy" I've ever seen in my life.

@sama Every time I see you post applauding PG I feel happy. So, thanks for that.

PG is one of the best all-around people i've ever met. to anyone who knows him well, this is a preposterous episode of "this week in twitter drama". there are many actual anti-semites in the world; it is important we keep the power in the word and not let it get diluted. PG is very much not an anti-semite and it's crazy to me that he's getting smeared for it; expressing opinions on the war in gaza and hating jewish people are the not the same thing.

@vkhosla I love-love this vid you've posted. Thank you for your vision. I'm with you

I turn seventy in the next six months and since I have everything I could possibly need, especially my family, I am really excited to be on the following mission for the next twenty years! Besides, I think you grow old when you retire and not retire when when you grow old. Seen such rapid decline in so many of my cohort once they retire!

@SherinWafaai one of my favorites on Playa - fully agree with youuu!

Beyond beautiful! #brokenbuttogether

@USAmbSL @USEmbSL Great to read this, congrats!!

@rainveil @blader Venture capital (VC) refers to a type of risk funding swapped for company equity. A term sheet is the agreement reached after extensive negotiations. "Pulling a term sheet" means the VC withdrew the agreement abruptly, just before finalization.

@blader I want to understand this. Can someone tell me what it means to have a VC "pull a term sheet"?

had a vc pull a term sheet on a portfolio company at the last minute, when they were on their last month of runway, for basically no reason 2 years ago same company is exploding in revenue now, and just raised a $30M series b anyway i hope he saw this

@FutureJurvetson this is heartbreaking

Sad to see this at Stanford today 😢 University staff are currently taping butcher paper over the vandalism, as it will take careful effort to remove the spray paint from the 135-year-old stone of the Quad. Some damage is permanent, leaving a visible scar.
