As Warren Buffett is about to retire from Berkshire after 60 years, this Michael Lewis story (from his recent Acquired podcast convo) highlights that great people are never reasonable...

With @Tesla FSD 14.2, you now have a fully autonomous car that you can lease for about $500 a month. You get in your car, enter a destination, and it takes you there as long as you keep your eyes on the road (which will not be required shortly). At the same time, no one seems to

For nearly 20 years, what I’ve found so interesting about great companies is that while there are some things that tie them together, they tend to be more different than alike. The very best companies are most often an expression of the founder’s taste and sensibilities. That’s

We love working with founders who are quietly compounding in overlooked categories. There is no better example than what Srikanth is doing at Cache.
Congrats to @srikanthatcache and the @usecache team on crossing $1B in assets! Likely one of the fastest to reach this milestone among digital investment platforms.

It's an interesting dynamic in venture that when a great investment is made, most partners take 100% of the credit, but when a poor decision happens (for example passing on an exceptional company or investing in one that doesn’t work out) it suddenly becomes the fault of “my

I wonder if you had perfect information on which public, no tech companies, were consuming the most tokens, it could be the input driver to an alpha generating investment strategy.

We put an unreasonable amount of effort into the content we create for AT, but what everyone loves most is the people. If you want to meet ambitious new friends who are into angel investing, this is for you. One couple even met in an AT cohort, married, and now have a child.
After nearly 8 years, Angel Track has become the place where serious angel investors come to sharpen their craft. We don’t open up applications very often, so today until January 15th is a rare window where you can put your hat in the ring to join the ranks of @lennysan, @cjc,

Although this might sound like a podcast interview, it's actually a good sample of what our friend group talks about when we hang out (please don't judge us too hard). Over many years, I feel lucky to get to laugh with and learn from both Jack and Saam, and I'm glad others can
Last Uncapped episode of the year, feeling really grateful for what a fun project this has turned out to be. Closing out the year with one of my best friends @saammotamedi. Although I don't like to admit it to him, he's a remarkable investor and person. Greylock has been

The fact that almost every part of building and running a business is harder than it looks is exactly what creates so much opportunity for founders.

The team at Serval just announced their Series B at a 1B valuation led by @sequoia. The company is on an outlier path with a product their customers genuinely love. I recently sat down with Jake (Co-Founder & CEO) to unpack how they approached forging product market fit. We get

The team at Serval is executing at an elite level. I sat down with Jake recently to explore how they've approached building the company from day 0.
IT powers the workplace, and they’re hurting. Their tools are abysmal. Their workloads are unsustainable. They’re stuck in a vicious cycle of break/fix. But IT doesn’t just want to fix things. They want to BUILD things. They want to BUILD automations for: ☑️ help desk

Three years ago, @KaranKunjur and @NeelKunjur pitched me on the idea of building bigger. Today, @k2spaceco has a new $3B valuation (with a $250M Series C round), a business that’s humming (with over $500M in contracts this year), a huge factory where 80% of each satellite is

One of Anil's management philosophies, "if you're spending your time thinking about the person instead of the problem, the person is the problem."
This was one of my favorite interviews of 2025... Founders often underestimate how much freedom they actually have. @acv and @meter is a reminder of what happens when you use all of it. They ignored the usual advice and built the company their way. It’s no surprise their story
