Love four square and swarm since the launch. @dens and team - thank you for everything
Foursquare was acquired last month. The outcome was disappointing. It's taken me a while to write this, but I think I'm finally done grieving it. Here are some thoughts on our final years, an effort to honor the team who helped build & maintain FSQ's legacy, and my attempt to finally get some closure. teendrama.substack.com/p/som…

I’ve been building Trace, a research and data company helping robots learn to work in the real world.
Wrote a bit about how I got here and why I’m working on this: lnkd.in/p/gAe2Dm4Z
Excited for our first release!
Introducing Horizon from @0rinlabs: the first long-horizon learning benchmark made from real agent logs
- SOTA is 21% on the hardest section
- 7-35M tokens of real agent history per task
- Models are hardly getting better on the hardest tasks
- Humans can score 100%

Some personal news! Recently, I stepped back from the day-to-day at @Instacart to focus on investing full-time. I sat down with my friend @jaltma on Uncapped to talk about building Instacart and my philosophy on early-stage investing — check it out here!
For this episode of Uncapped I got to sit down with my close friend @Max, cofounder of Instacart 🥕
We talked about the key moments of Instacart...how it got started, critical wins, tough losses, competitive dynamics, earned insights, going public, and Instacart's future.
Max is also an awesome startup investor, and we talked about what he looks for in founders, consumer investing, and what he's building with Workshop.
He's one of the best people I know, hope you enjoy.

New product Monday: we just shipped an agent that works to verify the quality of deployments and releases on @usefiretiger .
Sign up for Firetiger (free forever at low levels of usage!), connect your codebase and telemetry, and go to bed properly at night instead of worrying if the thing you just vibe coded and merged broke prod.
Moar below.
Excited to know that ALL the code agents are writing can be automatically kept in line with @usefiretiger 🔥 🐯.
Auto-resolved incidents are here!
Today we're introducing @usefiretiger. You and your AI agents write code. Firetiger makes sure it works.
Our team and I have plenty of incident war stories building @Cloudflare, @segment, @Twitch. In the agentic coding era, the volume of code changes + quality issues in prod is ever increasing, but observability vendors aren't incentivized to close the gap. They make money when you write more data to them, not when your software actually works.
Firetiger is the agentic operations layer for the agentic coding era. We combine production observability data, codebase understanding, and knowledge of your business to find problems before your customers do and fix them before they notice.
We've raised $7.6 million led by @sequoia with participation from angels who believe in better software, including @eastdakota, @calvinfo, @NicoRosberg, @dok2001, @jeffawilke, and @alanaagoyal.
You can sign up for @usefiretiger today, self serve. We charge for agents that directly make your software better and more reliable, not for observability data ingested, with plans starting at $599/month.
Observability is dead. Long live outcome engineering.

I can’t wait for what’s next.

The generative UI demo night in at @spc a year ago was a glimpse into today. Excited to peer into the future again!
demo nights are back.
come hang out with us "at the edge" @spc (SF) next Thursday.
we will have a *very* wide range of demos, including:
- space lasers
- emotionally expressive robots
- "wise" jewelry
- research around scaling multimodal inference

We're live! Soft-launching @zocomputer today, with a new website and sign ups open to anyone.
Check it out – we haven't been acquired by Atlassian – and that's a good thing!

NEW @BW: I dove deep into the hidden, powerful subculture in Rationalism, Effective Altruism & AI safety, united by a belief that hostile AI could kill us all soon

Beginners are full steam ahead using Chromebooks! They’re learning to sign in using their @clever badges, how to use the trackpad to navigate, open and close a tab and window, and how to type letters on the keyboard. They really love using #edtech with Mrs. Gray! #EGTSDproud
Thanks @JoetteRios for joining!
