Pondering why Albuquerque/Santa Fe might be Tier 1, but definitely not Boston, Chicago, Miami, or Austin.

We welcomed our first Arsenal-1 hires this week... the gang is in training out at HQ in Costa Mesa. Welcome aboard! I spy @PalmerLuckey @traestephens

There are only four tier-1 cities in the 🇺🇸: New York (finance) DC (government) San Francisco (tech) LA (media & entertainment) No other cities are power centers for aspirational talent. Sorry.

Could not agree more! This was part of the original thesis behind @solreader. It's an incredible happiness + sleep hack, and also the antidote to doomscrolling yourself into depression.

I’ve learned more about venture from Brian than any other single person. I can’t think of a better fit for him than mentoring solo GPs and taking large high conviction bets alongside them - which is the way he worked with me every single day, pushing me to go "all in" when I believed in something. Miss you @briansin, but pumped for what's ahead. Glad you'll just be next door.

I have four great tickets to the San Jose Quakes vs New York Red Bulls tonight at PayPal Park at 7:30pm PT. Free to the first person to dm me your email!

Pretty excited to finally get my hands on @nayafia’s new book. Beautifully designed. Can’t wait to read.

Update: Arrived at hotel, TV was on, but there was no remote, so I couldn’t even turn it off. Took one hour to get concierge to come shut it off. Are they trolling me?

“Oh, it’s not working? Maybe you should TRI MAS.”

The next Acts17 event will be on Tuesday, June 3rd with the legendary @PGelsinger. Hope to see many of you there!
