The State of Design, with Hannah Ahn and Resham Khanna

I have heard that saas is dead and now more recently that design is dead? I brought in two of the greatest designers that I know in @hannah_ahn [https://x.com/hannah_ahn] and @Reshusaur [https://x.com/Reshusaur] to address this and read some tweets and ads and such with me. Hannah also listed fonts to failure.

The State of Startup Distribution

You didn't ask and I delivered once again. Here is a full overview of the state of startup distribution and what weird and whacky methods some companies are using to get your attention.

The State of the SF Food Scene, with Noah Smith

I got Chinese food with @Noahpinion [https://x.com/Noahpinion] and @koreanpeptides [https://x.com/koreanpeptides] while we went through the best food in SF for each cuisine.

The State of Tech Media

No one asked and I delivered. Here are my thoughts on the current state of tech media while I take a bubble bath and risk destroying my fully specced out macbook forever. I also read some fan mail.
