Stoked to announce @fantasmoio partnered up with @tierscooters to create the world’s most accurate e-scooter parking system. We've mapped Paris in 3D and we're implementing our “Camera Positioning System” to fix parking for e-scooters. cities-today.com/tier-partners-…

This is what American passenger rail looked like at its peak, over 50 years ago. There was a time when the United States had the greatest passenger rail system in the world. We've lost that. America deserves better. And we're building it: The next Golden Age of American Rail.

We found a way to expand passenger rail across America without laying a single track. Dreamstar Lines uses underutilized freight capacity to run passenger trains across thousands of miles of existing rail infrastructure We’ve secured a memorandum of understanding with Union Pacific to operate on the LA -> SF corridor one of the highest-demand rail routes in the country, with plans for this route to launch service on the eve of the 2028 Olympics. This is just the beginning. We plan to expand these partnerships across the most important corridors in America. In just a decade, Americans will have a well deserved alternative to flying or driving in the medium distance. Once and for all we will Make Trains Great Again.

Build something new. 1 week left. Apply to join us at @southpkcommons.

@boxcardavid normalize layerheading

Ope, I’m sorry

@lucascassiano Love the progress. Can't wait to leverage this for our production 😉

As we're beginning to rollout our hardware, I decided to show a little of what we are building. A small, strong, cheap to make, Android. At vitrus.com we're making them so people can *own* the entire stack of these machines on their factories, workshops, creative lives. Fully assembled in California. No back-doors, all the freedom. In details here 🧵

Last week we hosted @southpkcommons' first ever hardware-only demo night. See who’s building the future, today 🔽 🧵

@ryanrz @jamesoniam and I could be interested!

If I arranged factory tours of BYD in Shenzhen in 2025 (both auto and consumer electronics), would anyone in the U.S. Tech community want to join?

@michalnaka @D_R_Farrell @robinsongreig @CitiBikeNYC @lwsamson Yep! Building vehicles to support this that are safer than golf carts, and with city environments in mind. And built in the US 🙂 dm me if you want to learn more

@D_R_Farrell @robinsongreig @CitiBikeNYC @lwsamson @ilanpenn is working on something in this space.

I can’t shake the idea that New York should become a golf cart community. Ban cars and add a few shared golf carts to every @CitiBikeNYC station.

@wintonARK @wintonARK @jamesoniam and I are building this and have a lot of thoughts here. DM me!

I always thought Apple should have gone after the neighborhood electric vehicle segment, which would have allowed it to substantially open up the design-engineering envelope and could have defined a new category (at a palatable second-car price point). From there they could have gotten to meaningful unit volumes in the most important cities and generated the data assets required to meaningfully compete with Tesla's autonomous strategy. A much more compelling strategic footprint extension than anything they're doing today (AirPods/watch as possible exceptions). Alas bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Hey Siri, what signs should I look for to indicate that an incumbent tech provider does not have a well-formulated forward-looking strategic vision?

@ajt @secretsociety @goblintown me! 0x7D2Cc5FE2b3f37E033c315a54f782F406285143D

Who owns a @secretsociety or @goblintown NFT and missed out on Steamboat Willie midnight mint? When no one cared about it in the first hour I grabbed a bunch from the truth wallet to make sure people that we not terminally online could get one later. Obviously can’t get everyone but reply here or via DM’s and I’ll do my best to get you. Want to get them out of the truth wallet before any @willietoken stuff gets released to holders (will make it infinitely harder to figure out who gets what then).

@ryanmhickman @insta360 Just got back from Monterey! Would've been good to meet up

📸 3 meter selfie stick + @insta360 RS1 at #MontereyCarWeek Exotics on Broadway 😁🏎️

@HelenGuo_ Surgery

Expensive shit that’s worth every penny: -Safari -Omakase -Private chef -Aman hotel -Therapist What am I missing?

Keep an eye out for @Trl11_Inc. If anybody is going to solve video for space it's going to be this team. Excited to be a part of the journey

@ShanniShow I'd pay $8/mo for this alone

Friends interact with this tweet and help me get my account back. I have things to say about life, love and the World Cup.

. @elonmusk Please unblock my main account @shannisuissa. I am being falsely suspended and no one is even replying to my many appeals informing me what I did wrong. Please dean of Twitter, Elon, let me back into school.

The @zenly app release notes are some of the most underrated content on the internet. Sad to have to say goodbye

So you've started your startup and now it's time to fundraise (or so you think) Here's what to do (and not to do) next (🧵):

Really great @primetimevc game show tonight. Loving all the VC / Startup / Tech events here in NYC!! Seems WAY more bustling than SF! @ilanpenn

@drewcoffman Not sure it’ll still run on Mac but Reichart still sells the original on his website prolificpublishinginc.com

it's time to bring back the aquarium screensaver

@garyvee @veefriends Another for @ShanniShow with @shannisuissa!!

want to do 5 podcasts / shows to promo series 2 @veefriends which ones should i do?
