Based on my Instagram everyone I know is still on vacation

- The fact that this beach is empty on an 80 degree day is a sign of how locked in SF is
- Inspired by these women at last nightβs Fintech investor dinner in SF πͺ More to come!
- Iβm thrilled to announce our $1.9bn of new capital! We are ready to go!!
- Some news! After 3 amazing years at @Affirm, Iβm excited to announce Iβve joined @BainCapVC as a Partner. Iβll be investing in the next generation of fintech and commerce companies.

- My hot take is more people in SF should βoverdressβ themselves More TBPN suit energy, less hoodiesItβs always SO funny to see an over dressed New Yorker at a casual Bay Area party..

- Omg my 1 year old just told me to subscribe to his substack
- I remember reading a study at business school that showed female CEOβs are often given the job when a company is struggling β> then theyβre viewed as underperforming Thinking about that nowβ¦ π¬Excited to announce that Iβve hired a new CEO for X/Twitter. She will be starting in ~6 weeks! My role will transition to being exec chair & CTO, overseeing product, software & sysops.
- Itβs sad to think about the future of CA right now: - UCs getting rid of standardized tests - public schools getting rid of advanced math - virtue signaling > critical thinking By trying to ensure βequalβ outcomes, we seem to be systematically removing access to opportunity
- Ohhh so all that free money wasnβt free?
