    Microsoft was 20 years old when Windows 95 shipped. Intel was 25 years old when Pentium came out. Apple was 31 years old when iPhone launched. All were still run by their founders. There’s SO much innovation still to come from today’s 10-15 year old, founder-run companies.

    Pretty wild that Twitter's team size went from 7,500 to 1,300 (of which 550 are engineers) and I can't tell any difference really as a user.
    Twitter is down to fewer than 550 full-time engineers

    You know who today's unsung hero is? Whoever approved Elon's visa application. Because without that none of this would've happened.

    I’m always amused when candidates are surprised that they’re meeting the CEO during their interview process. You’re joining a startup. What else could the CEO possibly be doing that’s more important?

    Opening the Instagram app these days is getting a reminder of why PMs should never blindly follow data in evolving their products. The worst product decisions always come with lots of supporting data, because without the data no one would think they're good ideas.

    Why is a shot called a shot? A shot is called a shot because in the Wild West, they didn't carry cash on them, but they all carried bullets. So, at the bar, they could slap a bullet on the bar and ask for "a shot's worth of whiskey." At the end of the day, the owner would swap

    China's take down of Jack Ma and the whole tech sector - right before an epic rally in tech stocks and the emergence of AI and the Magnificent Seven, which Alibaba could've perhaps been one of - was so incredibly shortsighted and ill-timed. Total self-own.

    I have no opinion on the whole Miami thing, but I believe "Silicon Valley: Miami" is going to be the best HBO sequel of all time and I can't wait for it.

    If I had to summarize the story of Silicon Valley, it's that a new company shows up, and everyone thinks it'll eat the incumbents' lunch, and then 10 years later we realize there's SO MUCH MORE LUNCH than we ever imagined.
