Thanks for sharing our story @ChristineMHall! Insomnia consumed my life at one point and I'm so happy its in the rear view mirror. Our mission @DawnHealthApp is to build a new standard of care for insomnia and help people sleep better without medication.

No more winners! They make the rest of us feel bad. Instead of self improvement, I want to wallow in resentment of you - because you are a winner! How dare you!!! I think its time for everyone to be an equal loser. Let's teach our kids to be losers. How great it will be! Don't study - whatever, your grades don't matter. Can't read - it's ok, we will subsidize you. Won't work - no worries, here's a handout. Equal opportunity losing is way better and more just than unequal winning! I think we can all agree on that!

@justindross @roelofbotha @rabois Congrats JD!!

My last company, Opendoor ($7B), replaced real estate brokers. Today, my new company WithCoverage raised $42M to replace insurance brokers. It was led by Sequoia & Khosla, the first time @RoelofBotha and @Rabois partnered since PayPal.

The rich do not pay their fair share. In fact they pay vastly too much. It’s super unhealthy to have almost 70% paid by 5% while 50% contribute essentially zero.

An ode to 2025, the best year of life so far notion.so/rahulshiv/31-2…

When I was in high school, crazy ambition defined my life goals. Somewhere in my mid 20s the social construct around me convinced me that a holistic life with hobbies was the way forward... Now, there is no question that grandeur in ambition is the way I want to live my life.
