Would love to meet some more young hustling founders in Colorado. Founders who want to raise a little money and make a ton of progress. Sub 30 years old. Who is out there? Will offer help, and maybe write a check.

I'm sorry if you haven't glanced over the Black Flag 100 yet. Give it a gander. Space lasers, quantum, autonomous airships/boats/drills/younameit. The future is going to rip so hard.

Throwback to when we had @benjamin_bolte on the @BlackFlagVC Pirates Only pod a month ago. Since this conversation I've found myself thinking more and more about humanoid robots in the home, and how obvious it seems now - but wasn't always for me. Robots in the home is something

This week on @BlackFlagVC / Pirates Only I decided to do something a little different. Instead of bringing together founders building the future, I'm bringing together my colleagues from Black Flag and Harpoon Ventures to talk about investing in the founders building the future.
