First time seeing a triple layer SPV 15% fee upfront and 20% carry...no GP commit I need to get into that business! 🤯

The Ravens have thrived on stability and character on the sideline and front office. Harbs will be missed. After 18 seasons in Baltimore, I hope he gets another shot and that the Ravens find the right coach to lead the next 15 years

Thank you Harbs 💜

After months of evaluating CRM options (as both user and investor), I think there are precisely zero options that will currently give you the “post AI” / agentic experience you seek *right now*

@pitdesi What am I missing? Don't the Outlays add up to $560B?

This must go so hard if you don’t know anything about tax collection… The US almost always runs surpluses in April & September thanks to big tax deadlines and fiscal year-end. BTW Q3 ran a ~$438B deficit (2nd largest in history): July −291B, Aug −345B, Sept +198B.

“Electricity rates will double…it’s a huge PR crisis.” Due to AI, “your energy is doubling and [AI] could take your jobs.” @chamath and @jason are 100% correct about this and the risk the public will turn angrily against Big Tech.

@TurnerNovak @BananaCap_ Both ends of the entry price debate are risky. Too few people talk about the hidden danger of adverse selection

Great research on the important of entry prices in investing. It's why I continue looking for ways to drive down @BananaCap_ entry prices. Current fund cost basis down 22% so far compared to prev fund, all while market prices are up 20% YoY last I checked AL and Carta data.

1. Entry valuations predict long-term returns 📊 High or low entry multiples in public markets are surprisingly strong predictors of future outcomes. Dot-Com r² = 0.82 GFC r² = 0.47 High multiples → weak returns. Low multiples → strong returns.

@TurnerNovak @BananaCap_ The real takeaway is what the chart highlights: invest consistently, not cyclically. Easy to say, hard to do.

@TurnerNovak @BananaCap_ Useful data for public markets, but I’d be cautious applying it to early-stage investing. Public multiples reflect transparent markets without adverse selection, while early-stage outcomes hinge more on selection and variance than entry price
