If the goal is transparency to build trust, why not just release everything without filter and let people judge for themselves? Including all discussions around current and future actions? Make everything public now. #TwitterFiles

We Twitter alumni throw words like “legendary” around a lot. There’s a lot of love. And so many great people. But there’s one person whose intellect, fortitude, moral compass, and dedication truly stands out. And that’s my dear friend @vijaya. Hats off to a legendary 11+ years.

Love this notion that expertise is about the past, and entrepreneurship is about the future. We need both.

One of the best. A leader and true friend.
With great sadness, we share that Tyson Clark, our friend and GV general partner, passed away yesterday due to sudden complications from a health issue. We are shattered by this loss, and will miss him profoundly.

On this whole leave Silicon Valley and move to MIA/Austin issue, it's pretty simple. You have made the big money already, move. Save big on taxes. But the future doesn't look quite as rosy. So, if you think your best is in the past, move. If you are hungry for the future, stay.
