Since X is friendlier to links, it’s a good time to reintroduce Ecosystem Metacognition. Here is my essay on the personas every innovation ecosystem needs: Builders, Storytellers, & Philosophers. What happens as they mingle, multiply, & create mythos. https://t.co/ycML23OJdx

Come on @axios! You’re purposely ignoring the part where @uaustinorg is now tuition free forever. It’s a bet on their students.

Turned on @cowenconvos with @sama from the Progress Conference and saw that @tylercowen is hosting an Austin listener meetup in January. Driving, listening, and registering... not my best idea 🤣 Who else is planning to go? https://t.co/oa2NZCSASG

Prop Q's lost & 2021's Prop B Camping Ban win were both by big margins. Shows you were a true Austin coalition is. Enforce the law & reign in spending. City Council needs to wake up (I'm not optimistic). But this is a big enough coalition to remake city council.
Good Morning Austin!!! I woke up to realizing that 63% of Austinites chose to hold City Council’s inflated budget in check and to stand up for Austin citizens who were being gaslighted on Prop Q’s tax increase! Congrats on unifying as a city across party lines! Let’s keep

This is what a university at the frontier looks like. Austin’s new edu stack is tuition free & independent of gov money. Built on classics, innovation, open inquiry, & respectful dialogue. Nicely done @uaustinorg @JTLonsdale @bariweiss @nfergus
UATX will never charge tuition. And we will never take government money. Here's why. Graduates spend decades shouldering debt for hollow credentials. This debt influences every decision they make: What job to take. Where to live. When to marry. When to have children. Some will

Austin is the frontier for atoms, bits, & intelligence with funders like @jimihendrixlive catalyzing it. 🤠🚀🦾
I’ve been sharing clips from my Forbes interview each week. In this one, I talk about why I decided to move to Austin, a decision that came after some thoughtful encouragement from Michael and Susan Dell in 2019. Austin fosters a unique culture of interdisciplinary

Love when Austin companies that are under the radar (for me at least) are building tech at the convergence of atoms, bits, & intelligence. Congrats @Infravision_UAS on the raise.
Proud to share that Infravision has raised $91 million led by GIC, with participation from Activate Capital and Hitachi Ventures, as well as existing investor Energy Impact Partners. The funding will help us scale our aerial robotics system for power grid construction and
