The fastest way to turn into a bad founder is to fill every moment of quiet with podcasts, CEO interviews, tweets, threads, YouTube videos and audio books. The fastest way to turn into the great founder is to spend more time in quiet and give yourself time to think.

many such cases among new gen manufacturers i talked to recently. i doubt that tribal knowledge transition is as critical as people think. right culture, good comp, exciting mission, user-friendly equipment. you can turn people into manufacturers much quicker.
Close to 100% of @HadrianInc's factory workforce had never set foot in a factory before. Trained in 30 days. Coming from hospitality, retail, nursing. Altimeter Partner Erik Kriessmann (@ekriessmann) and Hadrian CEO Chris Power (@2112Power) on why physical AI is creating high paying jobs by expanding manufacturing's talent pool, not replacing it.

Faith and fear both trust the unseen. Choose faith—and choose friends who do the same.

Lots to do together. Excited to be joining forces with @SpaceX to build useful AI.
SpaceX has exercised the option to acquire @cursor_ai in an all-stock transaction with the goal of building the world’s most useful AI models. For the past few months, SpaceXAI has been jointly training a model with Cursor, which will be released in Cursor and Grok Build soon. We look forward to working closely with the Cursor team to advance our frontier AI capabilities

Been noticing this a lot within my own portfolio recently: VCs taking meetings with founders in markets where they’ve already deployed capital. Founders, be careful. Once a fund has already backed a horse in a specific vertical, the incentives change. While some firms may invest in multiple companies in a category, many are simply trying to better understand the competitive landscape around an existing portfolio company. Good chance the meeting is less about funding and more about gathering market intelligence. Know who you’re talking to. Know who they already backed. Be intentional about what information you share.

“What did you see in this founder that others overlooked? Guts & heart Few can take repeated punches to the face for 10 years and keep showing up. That’s the bet.

How do we build 1,000 more companies like SpaceX, and do it faster? Tomorrow morning at the Reindustrialize Summit, Machina CEO @EdwardMehr will moderate a conversation with @jimbelosic of @sendcutsend and @billythalheimer of @regentcraft on how America and its allies can scale the next generation of industrial companies faster. More builders. Better supply chains. Faster paths from idea to production.

Alex Soros is interesting because he’s a billionaire heir who dedicates his life to making cities less safe. He’s like a Reverse Batman.
