I'll never agree with the old head, corporate America take that one should "go learn from someone experienced" before doing that entrepreneurial thing. There is no better way to cut your teeth than jumping head first into the trenches and figuring it out the hard way.

History's first trillionaire is a guy who catches rockets out of the sky with chopsticks and beams internet to every dead zone on the planet. Same guy ships cars that drive themselves, humanoid robots for the factory floor, brain chips that let paralyzed people move a cursor with pure thought, and an AI running on a supercomputer his team stood up in months instead of years. And the people crashing out about his net worth are doing it on the app he owns. The same app governments spent years trying to censor. You cannot legislate a rocket into orbit.

It's Sunday June 12th, 2016 and the world is mourning the victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting. Trump, who recently clinched the Republican Party nomination, posts on Twitter that Obama should leave office over the shooting. You walk to a nearby cafe thinking about the possible implications of Move 37 (played a few months prior) and how neat the SpaceX reusable rockets are. On the way, a mysterious gentleman pulls a newspaper out of his cloak and hands it to you. It's dated June 12th, 2026. Top Headlines: - Elon Musk Becomes World's First Trillionaire as SpaceX IPO's - Department of War Publishes Third Release of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Files - Citing Safety Concerns, Trump Administration Places Anthropic's New 10T Parameter AI Models Under Export Control Huh? Still holding the newspaper, you look up... but the mysterious gentleman has already vanished. You look down... the headlines are also gone. Sipping your coffee, you think to yourself "Wow, these art students sure are are getting stranger and strfr!" Before heading home, you find yourself checking the price of BTC... honestly, $600 per BTC seems pretty high. Maybe it's time to sell??

I turned up at the YC office this morning to find @ApolloAtomics installing the primary loop autoclave for their nuclear reactor 😬 It’s the new component that means their SMRs will be 80% smaller than traditional designs.

"The industry's biggest obstacle is not physics, but implementation." Excited to support @AssilHalimi and the Apollo team as they bring America into a new nuclear age, one reactor at a time 🇺🇸
Great to see @ApolloAtomics featured in Forbes! Thanks @dasha_shunina

The world is going to be different after @AssilHalimi and @ApolloAtomics bring their vision to life. Cheaper more abundant energy is how everyone wins 🇺🇸☢️
.@ApolloAtomics builds the most compact nuclear reactors with the highest uptime and a deployment time of less than 24 months. Apollo took the pressurized water reactor technology that already powers 80% of the world’s nuclear plants and flipped one part, the steam generator, to make the plant an order of magnitude smaller without compromising power. Congrats on the launch, @AssilHalimi & Drew! ycombinator.com/launches/QXj…
