This is my fav wkd in London bc 100 private parks are open to the public. I made a map to help navigate them: london-parks.smurda.dev/ Tickets here: londongardenstrust.org/whats…

Fundamentally, we think traditional application software is going away. Most of the SaaS you use today will be accessed through AI agents via API rather than directly. Any UI you need will get generated on the fly, purpose-built for the task at hand. You won't adapt to someone else's interface — you'll describe what you need and get it instantly, connected to your real data. 2025 was the year of coding agents. 2026 is the year this extends to all knowledge work. Instant Apps is our first big step toward that future.

🎈 We're thrilled to announce our pre-seed round of $2.5M led by @sequoia, with @eastdakota, @rauchg, @andreasklinger and more, to build the next generation platform for collaboration! Everything's better with friends. Join us! blog.partykit.io/posts/party…

Lessons from @Snowflake, @Confluent, @SentinelOne, and other great SaaS companies on how to scale sales into Europe forbes.com/sites/micahsmurth…

Thrilled to partner with @GeoffQL and the @apollographql team, and announce our investment in their $130M series D. With @ApolloGraphQL we go from making multiple API requests to a single query, and from overfetching to receiving only data we want. yhoo.it/3m723UI

Security and monitoring are converging, and @sysdig is at the heart (or kernel) of that convergence. My team invested because of their open-source approach which is rooted in Sysdig’s founder @lorisdegio, the cocreator of Wireshark. bit.ly/32ZwbGA

I wrote about why sales comp plans at startups should use team quotas. It’s counterintuitive for comp plans to use team goals, but early on collaboration is more important than competition and a leaderboard doesn’t make sense.

I wrote about why early sales hires should be team players and use team goals. Traditional "mercenary" salespeople are better for later stages of an established company.

An amazing event @Livermore_Lab. Terrific technologists bringing their inventions out of @ENERGY labs and getting useful advice on building their startups

.@DorisKGoodwin reading a 1912 nyti.ms/2UrNQFl piece that rings true today "This is our first Presidential campaign under the preference primary. We hope it may be our last. The spectacle must be amazing to foreigners and bring a blush of shame to every American" @algore

Inspirational words on upward mobility and social justice from @YoYo_Ma and “Song of the Birds”. Birds symbolize freedom, they fly through borders. As leaders I hope you create that kind of flight for the people in your lives.

Listening to @fhollande on indifference. Indifference is a threat to the EU. When 27 countries keep the status quo nobody wants to draft the resolutions to modify institutions and there is no progress. Extremist parties will leave the EU, and the risk is that it becomes nothing.

How @UnderscoreVC explained the opportunity for impact during their interview process and set one student up for a successful summer internship. #HBSInterns hbs.me/2NIvz2r
