@E_Bruxxx Unfortunately for LPs and GPs, it has become exactly about scale, consensus, and career-risk management.

Talk with a lot of venture GPs and one thing is clear: LP alignment is shaping venture behavior more than people admit. More VCs would swing harder if their LPs were less risk averse. This game was never meant to be about consensus or career-risk minimization. Venture at its core is conviction, asymmetric bets, and disproportionate outcomes. LPs who back the bold get the bag.

Also I think we should cut Eric Schmidt some slack. Poor guy was just at ASU scouting his next girlfriend and they asked him to get on stage to say some things. At least that’s my working theory.

Your ego will kill you, sometimes. The good guys don't always win. Who has the biggest ego in your eyes?

Test drove a >$200K EV (before discounts) at a dealer. Asked the salesperson how to adjust regenerative braking, he didn’t know. Asked what the padel shifters do. He insisted they change the “gears.” (They adjust regenerative braking.) Asked if it can access Tesla’s supercharger network, he didn’t know. (It can with a NACS adapter.) I was still interested, but then they showed me a lease with a 30% residual value. If I can buy one in three years for 30%, I’ll do that instead!

I like how in Silicon Valley, when you made money, the natural thing to do is to angel invest, instead of buying a lambo.

Funny thing when an LP calls you to ask: “Hey, there are some big funds going around telling LPs that small funds are going to die. What do you think?” I ask them: “Just go look at large fund returns vs small fund returns, minus few funds that are truly elite. Or just call founders directly.” Big funds: don’t do this. LPs give your names out, and you know your deal flow is coming from smaller preseed/seed funds.
