I cannot stress how little people know about VC, especially VCs. I know a lot of the underlings are not malicious people. They selected you because you are incurious, not malicious. Just dumb as bricks.

VC blogs in 2008: "How to run an efficient fundraising process!" Written by an angel with a new $50M seed fund. VC blogs in 2028: "Here's why we need to bomb country X!" Written by a multi-stage VC's ($13.37B in AUM across 5 defense tech funds) in-house think tank.
Del Johnson retweeted
While I appreciate support, don’t follow me if you think you’re going to come police my body, my attire, or share your unsolicited and unsubstantiated advice about how I should do the things I’m already doing, that you’ve never done. Spare me the respectability politics or go.
Del Johnson retweeted
I don't think VCs are going to be able to escape the fascist allegations.

@MKBHD Products should be finished when people buy them.
@DelJohnsonVC @MKBHD Del Johnson and Marques Brownlee was not a combination I expected in my feed, even if I follow you both. Could be a unique opportunity to reflect on how structural inadequacies in VC reflect on consumer tech if you two sat down together.
Some personal news: I’ve joined the @messenger team at @Meta as a Director of Product. Messaging has transformed how we connect with friends, family, creators, businesses, and now even AI. Thrilled to work with an incredible team focused on 0-1 initiatives within the app!
Well now we have our answer
what i dont understand is how people that raise $100M+ can't figure out how to get someone like @MKBHD to give feedback on their products _before_ they release them? do they just only surround themselves with people that are unable or uninterested in saying anything crit-- oh.
@DelJohnsonVC The way that ‘common wisdom’ has been regurgitated by generations of VCs and codified into the asset class is so obviously antithetical.
@DelJohnsonVC Small grocery orders to customers anywhere anytime. The craziest business ever. All I saw after the stupendous crash was the investors nodding to each other about how sad it was for such a good idea!!!! WTAF!
NEW VIDEO - Rabbit R1: Barely Reviewable youtu.be/ddTV12hErTc This is the pinnacle of a trend that's been annoying for years: Delivering barely finished products to win a "race" and then continuing to build them after charging full price. Games, phones, cars, now AI in a box
The number of VC-backed companies that get acquired is ~the same year over year But the total amount of value acquired changes a lot In down markets big deals just don't get done
VC blogs in 2008: "How to run an efficient fundraising process!" Written by an angel with a new $50M seed fund. VC blogs in 2028: "Here's why we need to bomb country X!" Written by a multi-stage VC's ($13.37B in AUM across 5 defense tech funds) in-house think tank.
NEW: I spent a few months looking into what is happening over at techstars — the story was a wild ride, and even I at times couldn't predict what would happen next techcrunch.com/2024/04/29/ins…
it's my first day as @theinformation's new financial analysis columnist! i'll be crunching numbers shaping the tech world. if you want to help me cook, pls send hot takes, tough q's and musings on big tech, startups, and everything in between: anita.ramaswamy@theinformation.com
@DelJohnsonVC IBs serve a function but less convinced than you that they work after years of working with big firms Smaller ones are actually quite great

Kara Swisher literally helped build up these billionaires to the point where they can threaten us with fascism, and now she’s trying to pretend that she’s the one providing a big warning to the world. It boils my blood.
