I've been lucky. Every early-stage company I've joined has had great people, genuine culture, and enough weirdness tolerance to keep me around.
What do Anthropic, Pinterest, Stripe and Facebook all have in common? Why are these companies so vivid in the minds of consumers and builders alike? A: @typochondriac – the mysterious hand behind some of tech’s most iconic brands and touchstones The @firstofkind season finale:

Screened our film on "the day the music died" with Lou and the team. Lou said landing Ritchie was "like being shot out of a cannon." American Pachuco's premiere feels the same way to us—electric! Can't wait for you all to see it.
Rather fitting - American Pachuco: The Legend Of Luis Valdez opens the New York doc fest tonight - February 3 - The Day The Music Died. I know that Ritchie’s family was always grateful to Luis for bringing him his proper recognition.

I’ve designed software, backed startups and helped founders. Now I’m writing fiction. This piece is from a collection of fables I began this year. How we do one thing is how we do everything. For people with 11 quiet minutes. Enjoy. https://t.co/d11vGBpxJk

two of my fav minds
If you are a Colossus Review member, you can now read my essay reflecting on a magical day with the one and only Kevin Kelly. If not, you'll have to wait til Wednesday to read it! 😛 I'm really proud of it but a little nervous to hear what you think.

I'm genuinely thinking of doing this...designers in SF—would you be up for cruising and talking shop? also, would you watch this?
“Designers in Cars Getting Coffee” - nothing better than going for a ride and talking design with @typochondriac ... need to get Jerry Seinfeld's team to film the whole thing next time...

Over this past winter just as designer founders became fashionable, I schemed with @bryce about a new video series: Interviews with “first of kind” designers who pioneered new products and roles in the world of software Excited to hear what you think
Last year I sat down with @soleio to talk about the changing role of designers as founders in an AI first world. In the shade of the redwoods, we hatched an idea dive deeper into that founder persona. Later this week we’ll drop an entire series of videos devoted to that theme.
