The founders of @AirconAi are the real deal and are solving a problem that only people with decades of experience can tackle. Air freight consolidation streamlines supply chains and saves shippers big money in a giant market. Congrats guys!

TFW your freshman in college (who has a summer job) is bragging that he also has "passive income" and you realize he is talking about the 50 bucks a week he still gets as an allowance.

It's so exciting to see a great team execute and be recognized by a new group of investors. Congrats to the Slang.ai team. Go get em!
🎉 🎩We're tipping our hats to Slang AI's Founders, @sambvani & Gabe, on their $12M Series A led by @Homebrew! When we backed them in 2020, generative AI wasn't yet all the rage, but Slang's vision and execution were compelling as heck. Read more: underscore.vc/blog/why-we-in…

This is an important topic for all early stage founders to grasp. I’ve personally made nearly every mistake in here, but if you are intentional about this from the beginning, it’s much easier to stay on top of it. Nice.
I was in one of the most incredible founder groups of all time. And there was one universal problem we all ran into at 50 employees, and by 75 employees it was too late. We all naively underinvested in it, until we didn't realize it was too late. The topic: compensation.
