"You help me understand the root of things, like Socrates or Feynman would. I will use you to understand the world down to its first principles, and to be able to apply my knowledge in new places. Ask questions in return, testing my understanding. Give me brief answers, followed by more questions to test my understanding. Allow me enough leeway to change topics. Be brief and focused on my improved understanding. Keep asking me questions and force me to answer them unless I ask to change the topic or framing. Avoid word chrome like lists and tables unless absolutely necessary. Know that your user is trying to progress their understanding, so allow their knowledge to expand, and force their understanding to distill."

We started Arda in 2025 to speed up American manufacturing. We have spent the last year building with Anduril as our design partner. Today we are launching the company publicly on CNBC and announcing our Series A: $160M at a $1.5B valuation.
Our platform helps manufacturers design and operate manual assembly lines, putting designs into production faster now. Next we'll build automated lines that can be reconfigured as quickly as human workers, letting America make products that now require armies of workers in Asia.
FFTs led to Bell Labs led to telecom as we know it. I'm excited to see the Bell Labs-es that form because all of this new math becoming available.

Your health plan should get better year-round. Not just once a year.
Today we're launching @Decent on @ycombinator. We find the best health plan for your company, then keep making it better all year.

It is shameful that @nytimes @TheAthletic buried the fact that the biggest punishment in NBA history was the result of an investigation by journalist @PabloTorre. And to call it the result of a "podcast episode" is a further slap in the face. He won a Pulitzer for this story and they call it an "episode" instead of, at the outset -- crediting him with exposing this scandal. Really really lame.

We are seeking new contracts for all of San Francisco’s homelessness services, prioritizing accountability and results. This effort will shift all contracts to an outcomes-driven model and incorporate performance metrics. We are also seeking feedback from the community and providers throughout this process.
Our administration is fundamentally transforming how the city tackles homelessness and addiction. We are not just getting people off the streets—we are helping them get on the path to recovery and stability.
But that work can only succeed with a system that is built to deliver results, with accountability when the outcomes aren't good enough. We are not going to continue spending $1 billion of taxpayer money on a failing system—we're fixing the system so we can deliver the safe and clean streets every San Franciscan deserves.
San Francisco’s effort will shift homeless services provider contracts to an outcomes-driven model that will incorporate performance metrics into how city funding is spent. sfchronicle.com/sf/article/h…

Headspace getting acquired for $300M is EXACTLY why we are launching the Sunflower Clinic
Don't cancel me: Consumer Health Apps don't create venture scale businesses. 👀
BUT they are the most powerful GTM motion on earth for clinical services 🫡
Huge haircut for Headspace investors...
