@jamesfly Of all the things they could have shipped in the last few weeks, this should have been at the very bottom of the list.

In rowing, a notoriously grindy sport, performative effort gets you nowhere. People ask "what's the hardest workout"? It's a bad question - no single workout is that hard, but a decade of focus and consistency is. Aristocracy is created from cross-generational consistency as Will outlines nicely here.

SendCutSend is building one of the most fascinating companies we’ve partnered with at @sequoia. They are the best way to get high quality hardware components for everyone from casual hobbyist to America’s hardware royalty. @jimbelosic has scaled this complex, capital-intensive business to $200m of revenue (+100% y/y) without raising outside funding. Wild stuff! We’re so grateful for the trust to be their partner for the next phase of growth!

Never thought I'd see DC pivot from blog writer to game developer! Congrats to @PlayAstrocade on insane growth over the last five months. @sequoia is so happy to be an investor and customer :) Now it's time to grind for the next year for a chance to be featured in Astro Valley II

Five months ago, @PlayAstrocade users were playing 6M games / month (up from 0 a few months earlier). Today, they are at 140M plays / month and 5M MAU. In case anyone is curious why it's exploding, here's a game we vibe coded:

Waymo vehicles have a 13x lower rate of serious accidents than human drivers. Six generations of hardware. Thousands of innovations in AI and software. 170M+ fully autonomous miles. For 20 years @Dmitri_Dolgov has been focused on making driving safer. While dozens of companies have come and gone, Dmitri persisted. He knows that getting to "good" is easy, getting to "great" is hard and getting to "super human safety" is extreme. Dmitri chooses extreme. My favorite part about him? He’s extremely humble about all this and remains focused on what's next: scaling. We're grateful to have hosted Dmitri and his @Waymo team at @sequoia AI Ascent last week.
