My thoughts on what it takes to be a great tech startup CEO, FWIW: hbr.org/podcast/2023/0…

Someone younger and better looking than you is out there, right now, getting ready to mow your lawn with an architecture built to take business advantage of the LLM revolution. Figure out what they’re going to do, and do it first.

Summer is open.

Twitter is just a shitshow right now. Sorry... "X" 🤮 Meanwhile Mastodon is a ghost town, Bluesky is a freakshow, Warpcast is a nerdfest, and Threads fixes the current problem by creating the next one. Hit me up on Telegram if you need me. t.me/miketrap

Getting more and more AI-generated inbound fundraising pitches. Getting better and better at spotting it, and more and more cynical about the need to respond to anyone. Venture was and remains a relationship business. Community is the new content.

My campground review on @thedyrt: Best Loop at MSSF thedyrt.com/camping/massac…

The value of accounting standards is not that they get you closer to the truth, just that they enable comparison by a consistent standard. Always avoid confusing these ideas.

Great conversation with Keith Cline of VentureFizz , my backstory and best advice for folks on startup storytelling, relationships, and breaking into VC. Pretty much off Twitter now, please join me over on Bluesky, where I'm also Mike Troiano
