This is absolutely shameful. Agents of a federal agency unnecessarily escalating, and then executing a defenseless citizen whose offense appears to be using his cell phone camera. Every person regardless of political affiliation should be denouncing this.

I think seedchecks.com/ is a very clever idea: you submit your deck and a bunch of great investors of all sizes will review it and reach out if they're a fit. Great way to get past the Warm Intro req that many VCs have. I'm excited to be one of the guest VCs this month!

"The failure rates are so high in early-stage investing that the power-law curves are steep. If your best-performing investment, after taking significant dilution, cannot return your early-stage fund, then you are doing something wrong." - @fredwilson avc.com/2021/11/seed-rounds-…
