The people in your life are what matters in your life. ♥️ My Dad. My brother, a remarkable professional photographer, captured my Dad at days end (operating combine during a harvest). #summerharvest #sunset – at Idaho, USA

Cool ❤️
Robert and I are thrilled that our gift of over 2 million shares of SpaceX stock will be distributed to children’s Trump accounts in December!   Our initial gift (shares transferring to escrow as we speak) will go to 11 to 17-year-olds who live in zip codes with median family income (MFI) of $57,000 or less, and to those who live in zip codes with too few residents for an MFI to be reported in the census. These families should receive a notice by Monday.    In a few weeks, an additional gift will be finalized for eligible 11 to 17-year-old children in military families serving overseas, children in foster care, and more children whose MFI is $90,000 or less living in counties near our home in the great state of Texas.   Thank you to the incredible team @SpaceX, @Treasury, @IRS, @DellFdn, @GreaterHorizons, @InvestAmerica24, and the legal firms of Morgan Lewis and Gibson Dunn for working over the past few months to make this happen.   We are deeply grateful for the groundbreaking work that Brad Gerstner @altcap and @MichaelDell have done for the long-term financial security for millions of kids.   God Bless America!

Really need efforts like this
Today, @FoundryRobotics is announcing our $100M Series A, led by @MarlinspikeVC with continued support from @khoslaventures. Together we’re securing America's ability to defend, compete, and innovate by building critical hardware at home with our new 130,000-square-foot factory in Emeryville, California. We’re already shipping to paying customers across energy, telecom, autonomous vehicles, and defense. The next era of American manufacturing starts here. Time to build.

Robert Greene was right when he said: “Always stick to what makes you weird, odd, strange, different. That’s your source of power.”

Incredible!
this might be my last normal tweet before biotech goes vertical i'm not a whistleblower. I don't work at Lilly, Novo or any of the big labs but there is a massive shift happening in human biology right now. it's sitting in press releases and almost nobody reads them the last 6 months alone: - a once-daily pill roughly doubled median survival in metastatic pancreatic cancer (13.2 vs 6.6 months) - a one-time gene editing infusion cut hereditary angioedema attacks 87%, and 62% of patients stayed attack-free and off all other prevention for 6 months - a one-time gene edit for cholesterol dropped LDL up to 62%, and it held for over a year - a personalized mrna vaccine beat keytruda alone in a 1,137 patient melanoma phase 3 - retatrutide hit ~28% weight loss in a phase 3 - an ai-designed drug entered phase 3 - a pill that regrows hair passed its second phase 3 - an immunotherapy that could let some rectal cancer patients skip surgery, chemo and radiation just got fda approved - a man lived 271 days off dialysis on a pig kidney - human cells were caught passing chromosome-sized chunks of DNA to their neighbors, and it changes how the neighbors behave we are on the verge of an era where the human body is a software problem and the update cycle gets shorter everyday stick around, it's going to get weird bio/acc

Agree. Life changing! Humanity at its finest!
Wow. This is so much more than technology. Imagine a family hearing their person again. 🫶

I’m in the first camp. I am loving the Grok Bot chief of staff in my life!
I'm starting to sense a divide in the tech industry: - People thriving on autonomy who are reinventing how they work and what tools they use with AI: LOTS of work, but they're enjoying it and getting very efficient - People used to being mentored / trained / or simply told what to do and how. Frustrated with the lack of guidance from management on what to do with AI; also frustrated by seeing some of their peers thriving; increasingly bitter about AI and the state of the industry, as a whole Neither group seems to be aware that there's another group, or have empathy for the other group

very few people can see the future as clearly as Juan. He was one of the first investors to believe in @eonsys, well before our fly work, when almost nobody took brain emulation seriously. I’m incredibly grateful. He’s brilliant and deeply technical, and he’s also kind and warm. He genuinely cares about humanity flourishing. Agree- neurotech feels like AI did around 2019. I highly recommend working with @juanbenet, @SeanEscola, and the team at @plcapital.
Neurotech is Humanity’s Next Frontier! I’ve been investing in neurotech since 2021 and working with teams building BCIs, NeuroAI, and connectomics. It now feels like AI did in ~2019. We are entering an extraordinary era: neurotech already restores functions, it can enhance our capabilities, and will evolve what it means to be human. PLC Neurotech is the fund backing the extraordinary founders and defining companies of this booming industry.

Beautiful! Congratulations.
I’m honored and excited! 🏆 My photograph of Kirkjufell, Iceland, won FIRST PLACE in a contest sponsored by The Art Network on Fine Art America. Thank you to everyone who voted and cheered me on! Show me your winners! Share an award-winning photograph or one you’re especially proud of. 📷

Big congrats! Lots to do in security & cyber today 🔥
Today, we’re announcing Infisical’s $40M Series B at a $600M valuation, led by @eladgil. AI has made it 10x easier to write code, 10x easier to find vulnerabilities, and given autonomous agents access to some very sensitive systems. The problem is that much of today’s security infrastructure wasn’t built for any of this. We’re changing this with @infisical. Today, over 1,300 organizations trust us to secure their infrastructure, including Airbus, First American Financial, Hugging Face, OpenRouter, and Wise. Proud of what our team has built so far. Even more excited about what we have ahead of us. Back to work.

He has 40k on youtube by the way, but almost none here. Probably the cleanest robotics work you will find
