the best founders are students of the game
you should the the history of startups...
who succeeded before you
why
what were the market conditions then
why is now similarly good timing
who's capitalizing on this already in an adjacent vertical

I've been off caffeine (including dark chocolate) for over 2 months and this is 100% true
Drinking coffee.
People legit think feeling groggy and irritable every morning, and experiencing energy crashes throughout the day is just a normal part of the human experience.
Folks, the healthy human default is feeling refreshed and energetic in the morning (because you've just slept, duh), and having constant, steady energy all day long.
Quit caffeine. It's harming you a lot more than you think. A harmful substance being normalized makes it no less harmful.

We’re opening a research preview of Claude Duet, a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent.
It comes to you with what needs your attention, completes tasks you ask of it, keeps working when you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.
For 99% of people, these consumer agents are solutions in search of a problem
Instinct CEO Noah Shinn says agents will let restaurants give tables to birthdays and anniversaries over whoever clicks first
"And traditionally, because of the way that the internet has worked, at least for reservations, it's been first come first serve. So anyone that comes in, no matter how important or how not important it might be, whoever gets in first gets the reservation."
"But what if you had the ability for the agent to be able to communicate on both sides, communicate, hey, this is important. This is actually the person's spouse's birthday, the 30th birthday, a very special event is coming up."
"And the restaurant too can say, let's actually prioritize birthdays or major decade birthdays or major anniversaries or these certain people, I don't know, whatever it might be, right?"
"So now with the ability, with all of the logistical burden of having to describe exactly what your case is and what's happening and why it's important. Now we have the ability to perfectly match what does the restaurant want? What does the user want?"
"And that will result in more special events for the users being able to actually have a spot in the restaurant."

was lucky to chat with @Forbes (Josipa isn't on this hellscape, good for her) about the latest @betaworks camp thesis and -- spoiler alert: AI agents will solve a lot and, simultaneously, create a flood of second-order problems/challenges. check it out in replies:
got hacked for a little bit but recovered my account in time (I think)
sorry if you got crypto spam 🥺
We have to do something to incentivize the best private companies to go public earlier.
SpaceX and Anthropic waiting till post $1T valuations essentially makes consumers the biggest losers.
Not to mention stripe, databricks, etc
It’s sucks not because there won’t be gains even after the IPO, but a vast vast majority of growth was enjoyed purely by a few private players.
So many people hating on this.
I couldn’t be more bullish.
He’s beautifully found a way to:
- avoid the stale dashboard trap and display work actively being done
- suggest and execute agentic follow on tasks in one click
- seamlessly manage outbound emails & ads
