Congrats to Alex, Ben, and @hubble_network (YC W22) on their $200M Series C at a $1.6B valuation!
Hubble's satellite network lets any Bluetooth device connect directly to orbit with just a software update.
Cellular covers about 15% of Earth's landmass, and tracking anything beyond that has meant satellite hardware costing $25 or more per device. Hubble brings connectivity under 50 cents per device, which changes the math for billions of pallets, shipping containers, water pumps, and farm equipment that were never worth connecting before.

Jaylen Brown says meeting 21-year-old founders making $2–3 million in revenue changed how he views money and business
“When I was at Cal, I met this dude Eric Moore. He had his own venture capital firm.”
“I just kept hitting him up until he let me intern at his VC firm.”
“He started teaching me about money, how rich people make money, and how they stay rich.”
“At 18 or 19, I got to see companies being run successfully.”
“Some of the founders were 21 or 22, had dropped out of college, and were making $2–3 million in revenue.”
“My body is my company.”
“Why is it a bad thing that I’m putting myself in a position to make a lot of money at an early age?”
“I really got to see how the world works.”
“I started to understand the similarities between companies and the business of basketball.”

I wrote about 4 observations on SF since moving from NYC a couple months ago:
1. The people are shaking
2. There is one (1) status game
3. The city that cried wolf
4. The fetishization of the math savant
and in case you don't trust reading blocks of text anymore, I present to you my images and memes:
Art is a window into one’s soul
Rick Rubin’s House on the Mountain test:
Create according to your own taste, not for applause, critics, algorithms, or market demand.
“Imagine going to live on a mountaintop by yourself, forever. You build a home that no one will ever visit. Still, you invest the time and effort to shape the space in which you’ll spend your days. The wood, the plates, the pillows—all magnificent. Curated to your taste.”
“This is the essence of great art. We create our art so we may inhabit it ourselves.”
“I'm willing to go to extremes to make the thing that I want to inhabit and it's not for anyone else. it's just for me.”

“Obsession paired with self-belief is often what people label as ‘delusion.’ But that self-belief is essential...because no one starts out as the greatest."
