A founder asked me for advice going into their YC interview and I think these are basically applicable for any investor pitch: - why is your market a good one? - why are you as founders impressive + well matched for the problem? - speak plainly / no marketing buzzwords
35! Crazy that I'm entering the last year of my early 30s.
My wife just uncovered this photo of me from 2017 and said it's time to get the scruff and the guinea pig back
Applications for Generate are open through this Friday! Very excited about the group that's starting to come together 🤗 altcap.com/generate

For a large percentage of recent grads, the right first move in tech is to get a job (any job) at the very best company you can. You learn what great looks like, bootstrap a strong network, and immediately get associated with the brand (e.g. "ex-Stripe", "ex-OpenAI") quickly.
This discourse about whether or not to pitch a VC associate is a perfect example of a situation where social media is inherently designed to be a poor representation of reality. Neither extreme is accurate. Obviously if you have the founding GP of the firm coming to your office…
Super excited for @braintrustdata to be part of the 2024 enterprise tech 30 list by @Wing_VC. We exist to serve our customers -- and feel very grateful to be recognized for the traction we've demonstrated so far by focusing on that. Excited for what's ahead in 2024, and beyond!
Can confirm it's great to work with Jack. Glad to see him finally work on something aside from coffee pouring techniques.

True. It’s just a clickbait headline & lazy “reporting”. I was in the 4th round of layoffs last year. Then I chose to take time off and recharge. Now I’m very excited to jump back into building and am thrilled to join the team at Meta. It’s that simple & non-dramatic.
Today I'm thrilled to announce @polytomic's second product: Polytomic Connect. Connect is an API you can use in your own products to either pull your customers’ data into your own systems, or push data from your own systems to your customers’, or both. (1/n)

@jaltma Your bday is my half bday… 35 in six months
im surprised how few VCs seem to be aware of the “took an operationally intensive business and made it high margin and scaleable with llms” plays afaict they’re the largest category of llm uses that make money or have any traction
@jaltma You already left it, my friend. But happy 35th!
@ztownsend One once said to me, we want familiar with a twist. I think that's right. Wide variance in interpretation.
My daughter Anabel has been working on her initiative to get young people interested in entrepreneurship and the environment. She just launched a fundraising effort for her partner organization @saveSFbay. I would appreciate it if you would consider a donation 🙏🏽💥…
@jaltma I consider 35 to be "mid mid-30s" 31 - early early-30s 32 - mid early-30s 33 - late early-30s 34 - early mid-30s 35 - mid mid-30s 36 - late mid-30s 37 - early late-30s 38 - mid late-30s 39 - late late-30s
@jaltma Quick guide to your late 30s: - you’re wiser now, which is a lot of fun - moving forward, all injuries are permanent
I have taken hundreds of work trips but I have never had my mom surprise me on one! She showed up in Bangalore on Friday “if you can’t come home, I am coming to you. You are not leaving India without seeing me” 😂
