Hughes and Slot decided that their business was perfect last summer but Salah let them down. They telegraphed "we believe that fast wingers are the missing piece" for six months. They didn't adjust the plan at all. Utter incompetence and malpractice. Good riddance to both.

I am begging every Comms department in Silicon Valley — now IS NOT THE TIME to be putting out important blogs and opinion pieces that are generated by AI.
Pangram is good. People don’t like the slop. You’ll be dunked on. Endlessly.
Save yourself the trouble and just don’t, plz
Great jacket. Would love to know the brand.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Founders Fund Partner Delian Asparouhov spotted leaving the firm’s San Francisco office on a phone call after Hadrian’s $1.37B Series D announcement. Sources speculate that he’ll soon be retelling the story of leading the seed round on a podcast.

Belgian’s when you tell them they have to play against the 135th FIFA ranked striker
The Belgian Federation was “astonished” by FIFA’s decision to suspend Folarin Balogun’s one-game ban and has appealed, via @TheAthletic
Belgium HC Rudi Garcia added: “I didn’t know that at the World Cup, July 5 is actually April 1. It’s April Fools’.
Team Slot gives an interview to the S*n blaming Salah for this season’s problems. If you think this happens without Slot’s knowledge and his team’s involvement, you’re delusional. He doesn’t deserve one moment of peace until he’s fired.
Former Netherlands international Jan Everse, who managed Slot at PEC Zwolle: “The worst thing that can happen is that they fire him. But they would be very stupid.
“Slot came in and he became champion. Everybody was happy. And now one player is not satisfied because he’s played bad.
“You will now see them competing for the title again.”
Delusional. There really is no plan.
“The plan worked great when Salah [having the greatest individual season in the history of the Premier League] and Trent [greatest right-back progressive passer in history]. We’re going to buy guys who can do that again.”

After almost a decade as the best run, smartest club in the world, Liverpool is broken.
🚨 Yan Diomande a leading target for Liverpool. #PSG also among suitors but #LFC firm contenders; strong position with 19yo RB Leipzig winger & if player deal looks doable club-to-club talks will follow. #RBLeipzig would seek €100m+ to sell @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/7301014…
I don't hope Arne Slot "turns it around" at Liverpool. I want him out of the club, both because he's a horrific coach and because he's not capable of leading in alignment with the values of the club. Keeping him debases the culture and history of Liverpool.
If they keep Slot and spend another $250M on transfer fees, it will feel like an abandonment of both the historic and modern identities of the club. That Slot's only "mitigation" to this season is to buy more players instead of building a team and identity is shameful.
“The best criticism I can make of Mo Salah’s post is that he’s made an argument that’s both correct and emotionally resonant.”

I have witnessed this club go from doubters to believers, and from believers to champions. It took hard work and I always did everything I could to help the club get there. Nothing makes me prouder than that.
Us crumbling to yet another defeat this season was very painful and not what our fans deserve. I want to see Liverpool go back to being the heavy metal attacking team that opponents fear and back to being a team that wins trophies. That is the football I know how to play and that is the identity that needs to be recovered and kept for good. It cannot be negotiable and everyone that joins this club should adapt to it.
Winning some games here and there is not what Liverpool should be about. All teams win games.
Liverpool will always be a club that means a great deal to me and to my family. I want to see it succeed for long after I have moved on.
As I’ve always said, qualifying to next season’s Champions League is the bare minimum and I will do everything I can to make that happen.

Last week a16z released their "Techno-Optimist Manifesto". Notably, in a section titled "The Enemy" they listed tech ethics -- an inclusion which has received a lot of negative attention.
I spent the week thinking about it, and here are some thoughts.
