Is it the fact that the word "heroes" is used in the US when speaking of police, that makes them feel untouchable? Just because one is in a blue uniform, they are not a "hero". Earn it.

I'm starting my day and I am fighting back tears. A 46-year old man begging for HIS MOTHER...How much more pain and terror can someone feel?

The greatest equalizer we have seen in Russia is free education. Make college education 100% free for all disadvantaged groups.

While I am most certainly 200% for entrepreneurship, I find what @Revel is doing unacceptable. Not only do they have hundreds of injuries, but also lives lost. Self-regulate, don't wait for one more death cnn.com/2020/07/20/us/…

I am corresponding with 300+ startups during our selection process. It is surprising how many write from their personal gmail addresses. Registering a domain/setting up email for it is super easy. If it's not done, it makes one wonder about founders' commitment to the idea.

Fintech is not easy to execute in, and most founders see that, even if they are from outside of the industry. Healthcare is not easy to execute in, but many founders miss that. When stepping into a new industry, ask yourself if you understand its complexity.

I like it when opposite tech and UX come and win. With so much literally in front of our faces now on screens, wouldn't it be nice if AI did the opposite - worked in the background and "came back" to us only if/when it "got something" for us.

We have three entrepreneurs in my family, and it often comes up were we "born this way"? I wrote down some thoughts on the subject techstars.com/the-line/pov/a…

This week I received one absentee ballot from NY and one from NJ. I didn't request them, but have homes in both states. Is this another potential 2020 voter issue - individuals with homes in different states voting more than once? Is there a federal registry that checks that?

The reality of the virus feels close again - a relative in a Covid ICU in a coma, and a close friend with asthma getting a call 2 days after a visit to an MD that the MD diagnosed positive for Covid.
