Essays from @joe_philleo and @jtlonsdale on the founding and motivations of Palantir + @peterthiel

3/ The Straussian Moment, calls for a reevaluation of the post-Enlightenment worldview on the grounds that mainstream Western philosophy fails to understand and provide a response to the increasingly powerful and dangerous individuals driven by non-economic concerns

1/ Letter #20: Fairchild Semiconductor (1957)

The Beginning of Silicon Valley

*Note: This is the Fairchild Semiconductor section of the Fairchild Camera & Instrument Shareholder Letter by John Carter and Sherman Fairchild

2/ Transistors, which are made from newly developed materials called semi-conductors, can be [substituted] for many types of vacuum tubes and, at their best, are more compact, more durable and require less electrical energy.
2a/ The public is most familiar with these remarkable electronic circuitry components through portable radios or hearing aids with a greatly extended battery life.

1/ Recently been on an @APompliano binge, and recently came across this article (from 2017!!) where he breaks down the genius of @stoolpresidente and shares why @barstoolsports will become the most powerful media org in the world.

Very relevant for today's media landscape.
2/ Barstool Sports is building the most valuable media company in the world

I say that in a sensationalist tone to grab attention, but there are real drivers behind the sentiment that make it possible. The relatively small team has built a large, hyper engaged audience
3/ The magic is driven by charismatic personalities, a cultural obsession with memes/humor, and a system level evolution in distribution platforms

1/ Today’s is a fun one. Going back to @mazzeo’s 2015 appearance on @eriktorenberg’s @ProductHunt podcast.

Buckle up – Mazz is one of the most insightful people out there, so this one is a bit longer than usual.

Listen here: product-hunt-radio.simplecast.com/episodes/0c2c4…
2/ I focused on “all things tech, and it was at a time when nobody gave a shit about it because there was just no money in it. So I was cheap. I was young, and it was an opportunity to not have to sit in purgatory for a long long time. So I kind of made that my focus.”
3/ we ended up incubating companies like @funnyordie out of that ecosystem where Will Ferrell was the client. We said, hey here’s a great opportunity for us to build a business around a sort of seminal talent.

Jamming out on @roadtrip_fm has single-handedly changed my life. ­­I use it for work, for fun, for everything. Here’s how 👇
Every morning, right after I wake up, I fire up the app and create a new room. This is my virtual office for the day. Anybody who needs to reach me just needs to hop on the app and join my room
For casual conversations and water cooler talk (and in general) I camp out in a public room. It really brings back the serendipity of physical offices. Have a quick question? Drop in and virtually tap me on the shoulder. Want to discuss something or just jam out? Hop in
