" I'm like, "Because this guy posted a picture of him with that guy's girl on Instagram." And I think in a normal situation you might have called that person and been like, "Hey, bro, that's my girl.

05 / belief

I think I remember, during YC many, many, years ago, talking to Eric at Pebble of how it was like the irony that in the best year ever of the company in terms of revenue is the year they went out of business.

I'm like, there's just all these things are going out of business, so they're just going to be consolidation. You see, I think Motorola has done 40 acquisitions in the last two years.

11 / belief

You might believe that, and that's great. But someone has to enforce this, and actually what's going to happen is no one's going to enforce it now, and that's, I think, really bad law in those cases.

13 / evaluation

Some people get pushed in the wrong direction, and that's what we have to stop. It's like, as a business, we don't… While we're proud of the impact, making a million arrests, it's actually quite disheartening because that means a million people will now have to go through the criminal justice system, which doesn't work that well.

I think for us, maybe our ambitions aren't big enough, but when I look at the domestic opportunity, we should be able to get to five, 10, 15 billion of revenue in America, and we're not there.

I'll find the book. But the book pretty much shows that one of the maybe smartest moves that China did was going to these developing countries and saying, "We will give you 5G, really low cost.

" I don't know if you know that story on the vacuum cleaners, but someone hacked into it, it's like… You should care about where your data is stored and who's storing it, and that kind of stuff matters to me, but not everyone.

Like, I mean, I guess you did it in payments, and it worked out pretty well. But yeah, so I think like that part, I think, is really, really kind of crazy.

23 / recommendation

We can give you an address that you can give to your customers, and they can mail checks to it, and we will turn it into digital money, and the fact that a bunch of atoms and an envelope going through the postal system were involved, you can forget about those details.

I think you tend to see structurally in these smaller… I mean, it's a large market in total, but where there's a finite universe of buyers, the distributional advantages are very powerful.
