Bilal Mahmood is my pick for San Francisco's AD17 state assembly seat.
We need bold common sense ideas for how to fix our city & state—
🚨 safe streets
📚 great schools with advanced math
🏡 solving the housing crisis

His experience reflects my experience: SF is a beacon for people who want to create new things, and it is the frontier. Immigrants from around the world come here to build the future.
But we're losing our way, and a leader like Bilal will help fix our wayward political machines
We don't need politics as usual. A vote for Matt Haney (who removed algebra from public middle schools in SF) and David Campos (who is deeply enmeshed with the progressive machine owned by nonprofits like TODCO) is a path to ruin.

My idea of Outcomes as a Service—
a/ there's a lot of money
b/ people can do smarter/better things if they use software
c/ they don't want to buy that software
d/ if you lend or take risk because you have software, you can take a cut of the benefit
I am not a billionaire! I want everyone else to be billionaires. In fact, I think we've funded people (usually just an idea or a demo and a few founders) who went on to become billionaires (or close) at least a few dozen times now.
Also I never cofounded Palantir, I was employee #10. I designed the logo. I worked there for about 2 years very early, 2005-2007, and left when it was around 100 ppl.
I made a whole video on YouTube about how I lost $200M by turning down Peter Thiel.
I usually say "ignore these insane people" but you have to understand:
These people are highly aligned and close associates with the extremist progressive SF machine!
I'm a common sense liberal, and they attack me. It makes no sense.
