Imagine listening to the dune 3 chant here with your bros

All moats converge on six sigma

A big problem in a&d is deciphering how much revenue any given company has

Before joining a startup I had zero appreciation of how much work went into producing clean financial statements

It’s just tables

@nikunj Who said anything about profits?

If you are a company, and you have revenue, here's my stack rank on how I'd like to see it represented in your deck.. > profits > revenue > bookings > *real* margins > users & retention > burn ... ... ... > views on social media > tokens burned > line of code written

@milichab @SpaceX @xai @JasonBud Congrats!

I’m joining @SpaceX and @xai with @JasonBud. X is the company realizing science fiction - reusable rockets, humanoid robots, data centers in space, and more. Almost 10 years ago, I joined SpaceX as an intern on Dragon 2 crew displays. This was in the era of the first rocket landings on barges, long before the Dragon 2 restored human spaceflight to America or Starlink delivered internet from space. Every day since then, I’ve thought about the next steps to land on the Moon - and to build a city on Mars, data centers in space, the brains behind robots, and beyond. There is no better place to build teams and products from the ground up with planetary scale resources. If you’re looking to work on the hardest problems that lay a foundation for humanity’s future to the Moon, Mars, and beyond - DM me.

@JacklouisP Feels hard to sell into any manufacturing startups with vertical integration being the meta

Selling into robotics is hard. Roboticists don't want to buy tools. They want to build them. "Not invented here" syndrome kills more picks-and-shovels startups than bad tech does. I've watched teams reject better solutions purely because the code wasn't theirs.

Tier 2 suppliers will resurrect the US industrial base

Alice In Chains on the factory floor. Everything is right in the world.

You know things are working when your employees are asking if they can invest more money into the company

Seen a lot of hatred toward VCs since joining the startup side Most of it is unwarranted Think there’s something uniting for startups to have a common enemy
