"Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain - and most fools do. But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving." - Dale Carnegie

Interesting list by @wsj.com. I like the idea of trying to measure #entrepreneurial success as a function of contributions to society. www.wsj.com/business/ent... #entrepreneurship

Artificial Intelligence (2001) was one of my favorite films as a kid. Today, I’m struck by how relevant many of its themes feel - definitely worth a watch! I'll share a few overlaps between the movie's core themes and recent debates below 👇
It was such a pleasure to present some of my work at SERC @univofmaryland.bsky.social Smith School. Such a sharp, constructive, and collaborative community - leaving with lots of great ideas. Thanks to the organizers for bringing us all together! #entrepreneurship #venturecapital #research

Talk about worlds colliding. Had Akhil Aniff (Ember Fellowship, formerly Venture for America) speak to my Strategy students @NYU Stern about startup careers. As a former VFA fellow, this one felt personal. Thanks, Akhil!

Great view of #institutions as “social technologies” that scale trust from small groups to nations by @jliep.bsky.social. Tl;dr - institutions reduce coordination problems to the task of managing small groups of "guardians". But they only work where #socialcapital is strong. tinyurl.com/4yb2vasx
Strong ties are valuable, but how do we build them? Janice McCabe at @dartmouthartsci.bsky.social suggests strong ties form when your identity is shifting (new parent, new city, new passion) and others are, too. For deeper connections, find spaces that match who you’re becoming. tinyurl.com/y3fk8h88
