@kirkgoldsberry @BillSimmons @ZachLowe_NBA @dmorey Fun watch. Saw your presentation way back on the 3 point line moving and some ideas for it. Still relevant!

Dorkapalooza. Proud of this one. The story of Sloan. With @BillSimmons @ZachLowe_NBA @dmorey and more. youtu.be/vzhyNTyvXcw?si…

@robjama This has come a long way from my first coding set up. Just missing the speech synthesizer.

conductor app is my favorite app for vibe coding and it's even not close better than terminal, better than cursor. if you're on mac and not using this idk what to tell you

@alexiskold Congrats to you and the team.

I am thrilled to share that we raised an oversubscribed $82M Fund III to lead pre-seed and seed rounds in Vertical AI, Deep Tech, Healthcare and Biotech startups in NYC and Boston. To be exact, we raised $82,048,000 - a number that felt on-brand for a nerdy firm like ours that loves riddles, the future, Morse code, and Easter eggs. We are immensely grateful to our LPs for their ongoing belief in our strategy and approach. We are equally grateful to the founders who have chosen to partner with us. Here is 2048 Ventures Ventures Fund III in a nutshell: - We back exceptional, ultra-competitive, visionary founders. - We lead pre-seed and seed rounds with $500K - $3M checks. - We invest in Vertical AI, Deep Tech, Healthcare and Biotech. - We invest primarily in NYC and Boston. - We seek businesses with strong data moats. Read more about where we’re excited to invest: 2048.vc/blog/2048-vent… If you are a builder and visionary looking for the highest conviction first-check investor, please reach out or re-share with your network!

@i_am_brennan Maybe it’s been a while but looks pretty close to me!

Still get an uncanny valley on both. Neither of these look like "me" to me. But i don't get that feeling when i see other peoples images. Maybe we just know our own faces better than others?

GPT-Image-1.5 vs. Nano Banana Pro Which is better?

@i_am_brennan Yup

People who are experienced at building products through a team, are now SO good at building products solo. I'm shocked. High quality taste and decisions matters A LOT now. I'm watching a CEO demo a pet project he completed in 3 days. It's so good. He enjoyed building it. It would have been a pain in the ass to build with his existing team. Seeing founders going founder-mode w/ claude code, @v0, @shadcn, @nextjs, etc is lights out

@alexiskold I've been having some luck with claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219 - parsing term sheets, portfolio updates etc. but also am looking for well known fields.

ChatGPT parsing and hallucination are still very bad. It is confidently extracting completely wrong numbers out of PDFs. Which AI model does better with parsing basic numbers out of the PDFs?

The way @trysunflower has re-thought email makes you wonder why so little had changed in all these years. Simple, thoughtful, efficient and somehow relaxing. Well done.

@mattroberts @rbcx Awesome news - congrats Matt.

Big news for me! Excited to share that I’ve joined @rbcx as Managing Director, VC Coverage! I’ll be working with VCs and emerging managers across Canada—supporting the builders who back the bold. Let’s connect. #VC #Startups #CanadianTech #RBCx

This is a pretty good one too @MeetApollo #consolelogmarketing

@alexiskold @mantl Incredible numbers. Congrats.

Reflecting on my decade in venture and feeling incredibly grateful and lucky. - Today @mantl exit was 100x our initial check - Crossed $1B in exits Techstars NYC 2014 Fund that I managed is now: $3.96x DPI 42% Net IRR 20.8x Net TVPI The last number below is most exciting one. Venture is a very long game and the best is yet to come.

@MattLoszak Ha. I had a calculus prof who stopped once half way through a lecture and said “This is the one and only time I’ll look up this whole year.” And he did, and that was indeed the only time. Quite like him though.

If more engineers knew how to make eye contact, it would be game over for everyone else.

@ProfBrianCox Toronto? Easy flight from the north eastern US…

If you’re in the US and couldn’t get tickets for my live shows in May, we’ve added extra dates in LA, Chicago, Boston and New York. briancoxlive.co.uk

@alexiskold Works pretty well with Nuxt but lately slows me down. It is definitely on notice!

Anyone else? x.com/0xOrkward/stat…

I'd put a unique url here to see who applied by looking at the console.log on the @Gemini website - but still pretty smart. (I was trying to see why something was timing out there...)

This was an early bet for us on the team. ⁦@rezakhadjavi⁩ and David hustled, iterated, adapted and executed - brining them here. A huge congrats. motionapp.com/blog/motion-30…

@robjama @i_am_brennan @mhashim Nice to see a familiar faces. 👊

@i_am_brennan @mhashim 🫡🫡 DM'ing you now

We just got our first paying customer—Mahmoud! A founder friend and early supporter, he was one of the first to hear about Boom. Our many product jams were crucial in shaping Boom, making it extra special to have him as our first customer! 💥🙏🏾 thanks for everything!

@robjama Congrats - looks great!

Space secured. Time to build! x.com/fahdananta/sta…

@tobi Yup - Pretty active group. Helps if you foil. HRRR forecast and ikitesurfs WRF model are accurate - especially if they agree with each other. Cherry is good from ENE to WSW. If rideable usually people will be there.

any of my followers regularly kiteboard in Toronto when the wind is good? Wondering how feasible that is. I think I saw some kites out around billy bishop one time?

@mattroberts @DavidDufresne @cmdcapital Great to see Matt - figured this was cooking up!

PROUD to share that my old friend @DavidDufresne and I are starting something new @CMDCapital! We aim to bring back conviction to earlystage investments, working with greatfounders andstanding as a lead cheque at a time whenthat seems to have fallenout of fashion here in🇨🇦
