Human biology matters. Scientists and AI need human data to understand health and disease.
Crownlands is open sourcing Gateway 4M, the largest single-cell tissue dataset ever released from living humans, to advance research on brain aging and neurodegeneration.

Feels like we're entering another golden era of web design. Well done @dayjobstudios (for @AmcaInc)

i’ve long told my friends that the only company I’ll ever work at is Amca.
i spent a year before joining exploring all sorts of stuff. during that year, I was frustrated with the soullessness and abstraction of companies in SF, but wanted to work with extremely effective people and escape the bullshit of neocorporate America.
to my dismay, nothing fit this mold - except the company that I knew my former business partner Jai was starting. i now get to work with many of my closest friends, turn ideas into reality in weeks or months (like this office), and shape how we build physical things in America.
we now have an extra $300 million to do this, and I’m hiring a wide range of people across design, business operations, strategy, special projects, “comms”, talent, and more.
many of the roles I hire for are shaped for the people who we meet, since we work across so many domains. so if you can’t find anything that fits, but any of this resonates, see below
I'm excited to announce that @AmcaInc has raised a $300M Series B at a >$1B valuation, led by @CaffeinatedCap with major support from @LightspeedVP, @a16z, @Lux_Capital, and others.
We're on a mission to reconstitute a supply chain that has too often put profit over country.

Ask why 90% of America isn’t vibey. Ask why your state doesn’t have anywhere near this nice to hang out. Ask for more

The Protestant Reformation was probably the most destructive event humanity ever has or ever will experience and virtually everything wrong with the world today can be traced to the logically consistent application of its principles.

it’s obvious that the value of a business is no longer the present value of its future cash flows. good riddance! such a framework implied that human labor should be minimized ad infinitum, but is there not intrinsic value in meaningful labor? certainly the christian monastic and buddhists thought so…
a business with zero future cashflows but that provides fulfilling work for thousands is no value-less business, no matter what a DCF model tells you

I am unfortunately developing a disgust reflex towards weddings & marriage. The diamonds, the humiliation ritual engagement photo sessions, the posed intimacy, the exotic destinations. All for show. To post and to outdo. Love is a costume. The union is not sacred, it’s not the entire purpose; it’s just the consequence of a big aesthetic party

You only believe this because modern construction methods have not been questioned for decades. There are obvious improvements in both design and building that could dramatically simplify the construction process and put it within reach for millions

don't do this unless your dad is a retired contractor and you can take literal years off from your 9-5 without consequence

I strongly encourage younger Americans to consider looking into building your own home from the ground up (settling the land as it were)
These ridiculous prices and shoddy construction of houses in HOA nightmare communities are not worth it
