“Community” has become the most overused word on the internet. But a community isn’t a group chat. It’s people — sitting across from each other, sharing a meal. 🚀 That’s why today we’re launching something big: DNNR (pronounced dinner) A white-labeled dinner club engine that lets any creator, community, or brand bring launch their own dinner club — in one city or around the world 🥂 What makes it special You customize your club page and short personality quiz — then all you have to do is announce it. Your audience takes the quiz, pays to book a seat, and our matching engine does the rest: Tables of six, smartly matched, in restaurants revealed the morning of. After dinner, everyone meets up for cocktails with the other tables. It’s part dinner party, part mystery, part social magic. The algorithm is yours — customized to your community — and the night unfolds like a beautiful game of clue. Compared to meetups, something wild happens: Because people pay, everyone shows up. Because it’s dinner (not networking), everyone shows up *on time*. And because they already share something in common, every table feels like it was meant to be. 🧠 Why it works There’s something ancient about breaking bread together. We’ve been gathering around the table for thousands of years — it’s the oldest technology for human connection. DNNR makes it effortless. We’ve taken everything we’ve learned from years of building meetup communities and made it plug-and-play: the restaurant reservations, the group matching, the reminders — all handled. 💸 For creators, communities, and brands We’ve been quietly testing this with a handful of communities — and it’s thriving. Dinners are selling out. People are having incredible experiences. And for creators, it’s become a meaningful new income stream. When your audience is local, you don’t need millions of followers to make it work — just a few hundred people in one place and a reason to meet. You’re not pushing ads, not hawking merch. You’re creating belonging — and getting paid for it. It supports local restaurants, strengthens communities, and makes your brand tangible. 🌍 The movement begins Today we’re officially launching DNNR to the world. Five communities are already hosting monthly dinner clubs, and dozens more are lined up to announce. If you have an audience — even a small, local one — we’d love to help you build your own club. If you don’t, you can still be part of the movement through our affiliate program — earn 5% of first-year revenue from any dinner clubs you refer. We believe this is a step toward curing loneliness — not with another social event app, but with something truly social. Because belonging isn’t built online. It’s built at the table. DNNR — Send your audience to dinner and build belonging that pays 👉 Visit dnnr dot io to join our affiliate program or book a demo.

I need help entering my based content era. I'm looking to hire someone to help me produce content for my projects: DNNR, Freedom Village, NH startups, biotech deregulation, and nuclear energy. I just can't get the velocity I want. Skills needed: copywriting, video clipping/editing. AI automations for workflow but will keep content authentic. Must be interested in the same topics as me (my content sources tend to be All-In, Balaji, a16z, Lex etc.) I am a female venture-backed founder but I do not want to talk about women's stuff. It's likely not clear from my past posts, but I'm extremely pro-capitalism, 2nd amendment, and free speech. You will need to be too or this won't work. Not interested in an agency -- want an individual who is aligned that can grow into a bigger content role as the projects get built out. If you or someone you know might be a fit, hit me up.

Balaji is a bright guy but he fled the USA and has set his mind totally against our future success. He lives in a world where US is losing and China is winning. This is his fixation. It’s dangerous, and it’s wrong. And this war has embarrassed China, destroyed their 100 cargo planes of war materials and their military ally, and frustrates them. It’s fair to disagree about the attack. But saying that its architects are guilty of any downside is childlike nonsense. They should be proud of their work and their courage to take on this evil. If you’re against the war, do you get credit for the last two decades of literal mass torture and mass rape and repression by this regime, and its terror funding and death around the region? Do you get credit for “supporting” the billions it spends on social media bots and information operations to polarize the US against ourselves, and weaken the west? Do you also get credit for what would have been the next twenty years of that? Are you, Balaji, responsible for that side of it? No? But if you are for it, you get zero credit for fixing any of that, but blamed for ALL the possible downsides? Total BS. The mullahs holding the region hostage shouldn’t get your help to blame others for the damage they do. Geopolitics and war is complex and there are risks on all sides. There is risk in acting, and in not acting. I’m really glad we are taking advantage of the massive innovation and competence gap that exists at this moment, and finally eliminating so much evil. I hope for freedom for the Iranian people and know that the situation is hard and complex, but either way it is good to stop the bad guys and eliminate so many of the worst groups, who have done so much damage, from history. Nobody should get away with what those bastards did for so long; this was long overdue.

I'm going to make some obvious points. (1) Blowing up all the oil infrastructure in the Middle East is an insane idea, and may well result in a global economic crash and humanitarian crisis unrivaled in the lives of those now living. We're talking about the price of everything everywhere rising, from food to gas, at a moment when inflation was already high. All of that will be laid at the feet of the authors of this war. (2) The antebellum status quo of Feb 27, 2026 was just not that bad, but we're unlikely to return to it. Expect indefinite, long-term, ongoing disruptions to everything out of the Middle East. (3) Also assume tech financing crashes for the indefinite future. The genius plan to get the Gulf states caught in the crossfire has incinerated much of the funding for LPs, for datacenters, and for IPOs. Anyone in tech who supported this war may soon learn the meaning of "force majeure" as funding gets yanked. (4) Many capital allocators will instead be allocating much further down Maslow's hierarchy of needs, towards useful basic things like food and energy. (5) It's fortunate that all those progressives yelled about the "climate crisis." Yes, their reasoning about timelines was wrong, and much of the money was wasted in graft, but the result was right: we all need energy independence from the Middle East, pronto. It's also fortunate that Elon and China autistically took climate seriously. Now they're going to need to ship a billion solar panels, electric vehicles, batteries, nuclear power plants, and the like to get everyone off oil, immediately. (6) It's not just an oil and gas problem, of course. It's also a fertilizer problem, and a chemical precursor problem. Maybe some new sources will come online at the new prices, but it takes time to dial stuff up, particularly at this scale, so shortages are almost a certainty. That said, China has actually scaled up coal-to-chemicals[a,c] (C2C), and there's also something more sci-fi called Power-to-X[b] which turns arbitrary power + water + air into hydrocarbons. But all of that will need to get accelerated. I have a background in chemical engineering so may start funding things in this area. (7) Ultimately, this war is going to result in tremendous blame for anyone associated with it. It's a no-win scenario to blow up this much infrastructure for so many people. Simply not worth it for whatever objective they thought they were going to attain. But unless you're actually in a position to stop the madness, the pragmatic thing to do is: scramble to mitigate the fallout to yourself, your business, and your people.

I know Silicon Valley startups don't want to hear this..... But the combination of someone in the trades with deep domain expertise and Claude Code will run circles around your generic software. I talked to Cory LaChance this morning, a mechanical engineer in industrial piping construction in Houston. He normally works with chemical plants and refineries, but now he also works with the terminal He reached out in a DM a few days ago and I was so fired up by his story, I asked him if we could record the conversation and share it. He built a full application that industrial contractors are using every day. It reads piping isometric drawings and automatically extracts every weld count, every material spec, every commodity code. Work that took 10 minutes per drawing now takes 60 seconds. It can do 100 drawings in five minutes, saving days of time. His co-workers are all mind blown, and when he talks to them, it's like they are speaking different languages. His fabrication shop uses it daily, and he built the entire thing in 8 weeks. During those 8 weeks he also had to learn everything about Claude Code, the terminal, VS Code, everything. My favorite quote from him was when he said, "I literally did this with zero outside help other than the AI. My favorite tools are screenshots, step by step instructions and asking Claude to explain things like I'm five." Every trades worker with deep expertise and a willingness to sit down with Claude Code for a few weekends is now a potential software founder. I can't wait to meet more people like Cory.

Sorry to be the downer because this is an impressive story in some senses. But it is ~trivially easy to make a single mRNA vaccine. It's not hard. I cure mice of various cancers with various therapeutics all the time. I've made mice lose more weight in a month than tirzepatide does in a year. What is hard and expensive is proving its BOTH safe AND effective **in a randomized and controlled study in humans** while ALSO manufacturing it at clinical scale and grade. I am happy for this man and his dog. It is impressive. But y'all are overhyping it.

I’m in Austin for SXSW. If you’re a creator with an audience and want to monetize it through community, I want to take you to dinner (or brunch!). I reserved a few small-group tables at some of the most coveted restaurants in Austin. Tell me about your audience 👇🏼 If it’s a fit, dinner’s on me.

Going to leave you with this tonight: The best thing you can do for yourself is actively increase your surface area for luck to hit you. Go outside, travel more, go to new cafes, museums, events, take a new route home, go for hikes, see cities, countrysides, take your notebook, speak to people, ask questions, start businesses - go on more side quests. You can literally just do things, and the more you do, the more serendipity and synchronicity will find you. Night gang.
