There’s an alternate reality where Slack never sold to Salesforce and is operating in full founder mode, aggressively embracing AI. I’d love to see what that product would look like. And what market cap they’d be trading at rn.

I'm super excited about this investment, a few notes: - Ethos unbundles expertise from work - consumers get paid for their unique expertise within a field - For example, a product manager who specializes in design craft vs execution vs growth would get paid different amounts for different tasks - The bet is that knowledge is dynamic and ever changing, so building a highly engaged/retained community of human experts is the right model - And more broadly we think this sets Ethos up to build the intermediary for all forms of finding work and contributing knowledge - from labs to full time jobs Most importantly, Daniel and James are generational thinkers / A+ humans. We're grateful to be working with them. Let's go!!!
Today Ethos announces our $22.75M Series A led by @a16z, with participation from @generalcatalyst, @xtxmarkets, @MattEvantic, and @_CommonMagic. Ethos turns what you know into recurring income - matching your expertise to expert calls, research, AI training, fractional work, and full-time roles. 35,000 people are joining Ethos every week. People are making $10,000 every month on Ethos. AI shouldn’t replace you. It should make you irreplaceable. Build your profile at askethos.com.

Agents will be social. They will move across sites and need to carry provenance proofs. "If your agent acts on different services, there’s no standard way to reconstruct and attribute that chain of actions in a way both parties trust." @egg_ert in eggert.substack.com/p/stop-f…

1970: "No one will trust an ATM." 1998: "People need physical branches." 2015: "Instant payments are impossible." 2025: "Cross-border is too complex." History isn't written by the skeptics.

WE ARE LIVE super excited to announce the launch of the first AI platform that modernizes the glue code every enterprise runs on. every industry is held together by invisible glue code: scripts someone wrote 10 years ago, cron jobs that were tacked on here and there, and one-off connectors that no one wants to touch but the entire business depends on. superglue is better glue: it captures internal know-how, analyzes system dependencies, and automatically rebuilds auto-repairing glue code, for any system, file type, or format. What used to take weeks of manual reconstruction and debugging now takes days, saving companies millions. legacy glue is holding back IT teams in every major enterprise today - better glue is the key to unlock the potential of AI and modern infrastructure. we are only getting started. let's gooooo

I’m turning 41, but I don’t feel like celebrating. Our generation is running out of time to save the free Internet built for us by our fathers. What was once the promise of the free exchange of information is being turned into the ultimate tool of control. Once-free countries are introducing dystopian measures such as digital IDs (UK), online age checks (Australia), and mass scanning of private messages (EU). Germany is persecuting anyone who dares to criticize officials on the Internet. The UK is imprisoning thousands for their tweets. France is criminally investigating tech leaders who defend freedom and privacy. A dark, dystopian world is approaching fast — while we’re asleep. Our generation risks going down in history as the last one that had freedoms — and allowed them to be taken away. We’ve been fed a lie. We’ve been made to believe that the greatest fight of our generation is to destroy everything our forefathers left us: tradition, privacy, sovereignty, the free market, and free speech. By betraying the legacy of our ancestors, we’ve set ourselves on a path toward self-destruction — moral, intellectual, economic, and ultimately biological. So no, I’m not going to celebrate today. I’m running out of time. WE are running out of time.

That's why designers should start companies Impeccable user instincts and taste woven into the culture and output from Day 1
It’s easier to raise a $5M seed round than hire a cracked designer full time

One of my goals in 2025 is to delete Slack from my engineering teams life
I truly think Slack needs to be replaced or there needs to be a real alternative. The mental tax is very, very real.

Working fully in-office is well understood. Working fully remotely is well understood. We will need a new set of workplace norms, tools, and processes for the hybrid, flexible workplace. This is a massive opportunity for enterprise software innovation to stitch this all together.
