Finished the OpenAI / Sama biography. 

Kind of like the original Elon biography by Vance, the story feels half written. Most of the major bets (OpenAI, Helion, World) have yet to prove themselves as long-term viable businesses.

But it finally feels like the SV / YC milieu is mainstream, and therefore officially over. 

It will likely continue to gain in power / importance, but the early optimistic energy is well and truly gone. It’s now the establishment.

Feel like YC has been mainstream for a while now.

Farcaster and even 1517 feel like they have that energy

didn’t think there was much value in reading either of those bios. that you were able to pull a good take from them is much appreciated

way to always be reading babe

Part of the reason I am in crypto is that it feels punk.

💯💯💯

YC today feel like Google in the 2010s…

A lot of people join for status, and so it attracts the wrong crowd

What do you think is coming next? 👀🔥
