@SawyerMerritt @Chansoo @elonmusk Better late than never! If they hadn’t committed this mistake in the first place, SpaceX HQ would’ve been in California!

The California Coastal Commission has issued a formal apology to @elonmusk and SpaceX, adding that it will not consider political views or speech in future regulatory decisions.
• The Commission admits some officials made politically biased and improper statements about SpaceX and Elon Musk
• It formally apologizes for those remarks
• Agrees it will not consider political views or speech in future regulatory decisions
• The Commission will NOT require coastal permits for most launch operations at Vandenberg
Full statement: "The Commission agrees that it may not consider irrelevant factors in performing its function and specifically agrees that it will not take into account the perceived political beliefs, political speech, or labor practices of SpaceX or its officers in considering any regulatory action concerning SpaceX. The Commission acknowledges that Commissioners made statements, including during their October 10, 2024, hearing on the Base’s Falcon 9 launch program, that showed political bias against SpaceX and its CEO and were improper. The Commission apologizes for those statements, as set forth in the signed letter attached as Exhibit C."
This filing means that SpaceX and the California Coastal Commission have reached a settlement in their federal lawsuit, and it provides long-term regulatory clarity for SpaceX for future Falcon 9 launches.

@bradsferguson When the co is going all in w $25B on massive growth projects, I’d stay invested instead of timing the markets.

We were promised government efficiency but what we got was the most blatant kleptocracy in the history of the US.

I had a great time speaking with Brian Roberts at Comcast headquarters in Philadelphia about the future of AI and Comcast's partnership with Sierra. I particularly loved learning more about Comcast's early bets on the Internet and the parallels to the adoption of AI.

What if Salesforce was like a headless data platform?
I would have called it database.com. Never mind.

Recently grabbed coffee with a senior VP at a very well-known private equity firm
Well above $2M in net worth. Not enough to fully retire but can walk away for a better work life balance if he wants to
Just had a kid few months ago and now struggling to decide between continuing this career path or shifting to something that would let him spend more time with family
I asked him what is keeping him at the current firm, beyond just money
His answer was simple: "Insecurity. I might look back in 10 years and feel bad knowing that my friends are buying their second vacation homes while I walked away to chase an easier life. Whatever job or title I have next would not earn me the same respect"
That is when it really hit me
A lot of people stay in high-performing careers, not even because they need the money, but rather because they are used to a certain level of status and respect from people around them
This only gets worse as you move higher up the ladder and start spending time around people at the same level in terms of career or wealth
I asked him if he was okay if I posted this on my X and sought advice on what my followers would do.
He agreed.
So I am genuinely curious: what would you do if you were in his situation?

@RoKhanna @TomSteyer You rant against billionaires and now you endorse Steyer? What a shame!!

I am proud to have been @TomSteyer first endorser, breaking from the old-school establishment.
I ran against the party machine three times to win my seat. It's why I have independence.
Tom will be an independent voice, taking on special interests and lowering costs.

@proales @NadimHossain @rohindhar In a class of 700+ students, having 600 straight A students (in middle school) works fine @ Lowell! Lowell used to be a Berkeley feeder, but less so now - but that’s only because of Berkeley policy changes

A lot of people leave San Francisco for Marin because they perceive the public schools to be better there
But what I’ve noticed is that a lot of folks who move to Marin end up sending their kids to private school eventually. And this is true whether they live in San Rafael, Mill Valley, etc etc
Are the public schools in Marin still considered great or are they coasting on some reputation from a long time ago?

@marcrandolph Terrible advice! you should at least start your career in SF; you can build your startup in another place (maybe), and succeed! But to never learn from SF would be to almost guarantee your entrepreneurial failure
English
If you want to succeed with an early-stage startup, your best move might be far away from Silicon Valley, to a small city with an active startup community of its own.

I’m betting my entire net worth on 5 predictions:
(from $6.34 $PLTR investor)
→ $DUOL = dominates global education.
→ $HIMS = $500B giant in 5 years.
→ $PLTR = $2T as AI ontology grows.
→ $AMD = crushes NVIDIA via chiplets.
→ $META = $5T AI giant.
$AMD $2000 thesis.

Jeff Bezos has $222 billion.
If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over.
And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.

This is such a ridiculous post. The guy sounds like he has just landed in India and has culture shock, that is all. Just because a country is clean does not make it good. A clean country can be boring as hell. I am not inspired to live in China for many reasons but one is because there is no religion there - what values do people have? It could be materialistic and a meaningless existence. As for beggars, there are plenty in the UK and UK is meant to be a rich country - so having beggars or not, having homeless or not, is not a sign of anything. As for chaos, this is what many people find to be the beauty of India. As somehow things work in the chaos. India is far more complex than this freshie realises. There is a way through the chaos. If all countries were the same, there wouldn't be any point in travelling. It is the amazing experiences you have in India, that make people want to go there - in the cities, the villages, the mountains. India is deeply spiritual. And I am not even comparing the fact one is a thriving democracy, with a free media and free speech, where protests can happen, and one is not.

Bro, after spending 6 weeks in China, landed in India. Bro was in pure shock, just a 3 to 4 hour flight and it felt like another planet. Bro explained how China is extremely clean and organized, while India feels chaotic everywhere. Bro said he had never seen so many beggars and homeless people, while in China he could not find even a single beggar. Instead of blaming him, it is high time we introspect how we, as Indians, are being scammed by traditional political parties and less educated politicians. How corruption, infights and religious bigotry as a tool used by Corrupt leaders are derailing us Backward from other nations. If China can change its fortune in just 2 decades, why cannot more capable Indians do the same?
