more practical version: and build and sell and pitch and hire and fire and onboard and offboard and negotiate and network and fundraise and get ignored and get rejected and follow up and follow up again and close deals and lose deals and do customer support and calm angry customers and calm nervous employees and calm yourself and write copy and rewrite copy and post content and pretend to enjoy posting content and do PR and become PR and manage cash and stretch runway and read legal docs and sign legal docs and regret legal docs and read the cap table and pretend you understand the cap table and do the finances and redo the finances and explain the finances and realize the finances were wrong and fix the product and ship the product and unship the product and prioritize and reprioritize and kill features and defend the roadmap and change the roadmap and hire executives and realize you hired wrong and fire executives and take responsibility and absorb pressure and hide panic and make impossible decisions and make decisions with no data and make decisions with bad data and make decisions while tired and lead the team and protect morale and carry the culture and carry the vision and carry the uncertainty and carry everyone else’s uncertainty too and answer investors and update investors and impress investors and survive investors and do marketing and do sales and do ops and do recruiting and do product and do strategy and do therapy in your own head and smile in public and suffer in private and wake up and do it again and again and again and again and even then, no guarantee it works)

being a founder is easy. all you need to know is how to build. and sell and pitch perfectly and customer service and network and hire and fire and not cry when you fire and read a cap table and do the finances and do the finances again because you did them wrong and fundraise and handle rejection like a sport and write copy and do PR when you have no PR budget and make content easy stuff really

@brockpierson Stay silent and observe them

What is the fastest way to tell if someone is intelligent?

@citrini Still waiting for Google to fully show up in the AI race

Google should go all in on robotics imo

@mwseibel If someone forgets the child inside them, they usually don’t become the most pleasant person to be around The emotions and feelings we absorb as children keep driving us throughout life - in both directions

It took me 43 years to realize there are no adult. Just kids in adult bodies trying to figure it things out the best they can.

@fin465 @Clavicular0 @Clavicular0 + AI = 🧠💀

I invited looksmaxxer @Clavicular0 to our office in SF to discuss his soon to be announced AI project Full video out soon🤞

@deobfuscations We thought about this too, but the key challenge is monetization: how do you actually get upside from the artist? Royalties from streams are far from their main source of income now

who’s going to build an app to invest in musicians?

@quionie claude -> frontend codex -> backend

claude is expensive, but man it’s pretty

@NASA @Space_Station Russia?? Wow

This September, we're sending a new crew to the @Space_Station! Meet the four members of our SpaceX Crew-13 mission, who will help us learn how to live in space while making life better back on Earth: go.nasa.gov/4cvxYYR

How often do you notice yourself changing? Every 3 months I feel like I’ve become a different person in work Every 6 months, I realize I’ve changed on the inside too

Benchmarks say Opus 4.7 won Unfortunately, my Polymarket position said ChatGPT 5.5

@arena @OpenAI wow

Exciting news - GPT-Image-2 by @OpenAI has claimed the #1 spot across all Image Arena leaderboards! A clean sweep with a record-breaking +242 point lead in Text-to-Image - the largest gap we’ve seen to date. - #1 Text-to-Image (1512), +242 over #2 (Nano-banana-2 with web-search aka gemini-3.1-flash-image) - #1 Single-Image Edit (1513), +125 over #2 (Nano-banana-pro aka gemini-3-pro-image) - #1 Multi-Image Edit (1464), +90 over #2 (Nano-banana-2) No model has dominated Image Arena with margins this wide. Huge congratulations to @OpenAI on this major breakthrough in image generation! More performance breakdowns by category in the thread below.

@gdb Incredible. GPT Image 2 may be the most exciting image model right now for UI/UX work

really incredible what you're now able to create with a little bit of compute. excited for new applications in areas like education, professional settings (slides, marketing materials, etc), and productivity (such as creating diagrams for code documentation).

GPT Image 2 may be the most exciting image model right now for UI/UX work It’s not only generating art - it’s becoming genuinely useful for product demos, interface concepts, and visual packaging

Where is DeepSeek V4? Where is R2? Feels like it’s been way too long

@AuthorGFAllen huge fact

INTERSTELLAR IS ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES EVER MADE.

@emkara not a fan of some of Apple’s recent decisions, but the end of an era is always sad. With Tim leaving - and several other key people gone too - it feels like we’re about to see a new Apple. And that’s something to be excited about

The end of an era

This means one thing: Apple is about to ship something historic in September

OFFICIAL by @Apple: Tim Cook’s chapter as CEO is coming to an end. A whole era is gone - and it was an incredible one… … thank you for everything, legend!
