San Francisco is at a crossroads. Will we enter a period such as Detroit in the 1970s or will we swing back from our boom and bust local history. I believe in the latter but it will take a lot more than misplaced good government intentions.

$nvidia has been bothering me a while as there is such extreme scarcity. I think I know why. During covid, there was a crazy run on toilet paper and it sold out everywhere. That did not mean that people would wipe their ass more. I worry that we are scrambling to hoard m100s

Public tech companies have dropped in price precipitously. This means there is intense pressure to re-up employees and offer far more shares to candidates. Thus, substantial increases in equity burn. Why is no one discussing this?

The surge of defense tech is driven by the need to fight a new type of warfare not fought by tanks and jets. It's driven by new hotspots around the globe and the rise of China as an emerging threat. But also boys just like to blow shit up.

The difference between rocket startups and startups training their own LLMs is that a compute provider can win this massive opportunity by discounting or giving away compute to these future leaders. Better ROI than venture!

Startups that train their own large language models are starting to look like space companies. Raising millions in seed capital to afford a single training run (rocket launch). Better get it right.
