When I asked a 19 year old during a pitch what motivates him: “building vertical SaaS is my life’s work” 🥹

Now I understand why there will never be a bank run with JP Morgan… it’s because it’s truly impossible to get anything done on the platform and everything takes dozens of emails and phone calls to do anything with your account 😅

In the Plex has been such a great read to deeply understand the history of Google and why even if they weren’t the first search engine, they ultimately won the 2000s. Lots of twists and turns but gets me excited about all the challenger underdogs in AI today.

Was asked at a Friday night hangout last night how I’m able to integrate work and life and how I feel about having to always be on since you never know where preseed founders can come from. Tbh it just feels natural and probably why I love this game so much.

Looking at apartments in ny yesterday and somehow felt so excited by the underdog and emerging aspects of a neighborhood like Bushwick. Feels like a sleeper right now and will be the next Williamsburg in 3-5 years.

Still amazed by the marketing machine @a16z has been able to create. In a world where distribution has become so important for startups, it’s definitely a differentiated value add.

This week felt sooo long but also sooo short. Not sure if that’s a good or bad thing 😂

I’m convinced that everyone should take a big swing at some point in their life and experience what it’s like to truly go all in on a meaningful pursuit otherwise they grow bitter with age.

Used the phrase “lightning in a bottle” with a founder friend recently and her immediate question was “how do you find lightning”… if only I knew 😅

Caught up with someone I look up to and can’t stop thinking about this line he told me. “Every night before going to bed, I share one new thing (big or small) I learned that day to my wife” So simple yet so beautiful. True curiosity and student of life.

Caught up with a long time friend from the Philippine startup ecosystem and our conclusion by the end of our call is that the current state of AI is basically still Filipinos in the loop 😆

Randomly calling your friends just because you thought of them is so underrated

I love being a student of the game reading internet history books about Intel, eBay, Netscape, Apple, etc. I always wondered how those moments in time would have been like. These last few weeks I think I have my answer. Grateful to be living in this moment. Game on.
