  Ppl laugh when I say there's no job mentally harder than being a founder Externally it looks glam but it's a highly levered lottery ticket that mostly just leaves you broke & you're getting punched in the face 9/10 days TK is the definition of resilience, I look up to him a lot

  Travis Kalanick is one of the greatest entrepreneurs of all time. The bad guys took his company. But they never broke his spirit. He rebuilt from scratch. And now he's back.

  No one has the balls to whitewash history like a male Silicon Valley founder scorned. Though Elisabeth Holmes is giving him a good run for his money. [image]

  TK single-handedly willed into existence global ride-hailing — which has been *by far* one of the most societally-positive products of this century uber was on a path to dominate and accelerate innovation in every major category of transportation before TK got kicked out [image]

  I first read this as Travis Kelce, which would be better.  [embedded post]

  an attempt to rehabilitate kalanick has been bubbling the whole time that the right has been “fighting woke” or whatever, so it's very funny that his re-emergence into the self-driving space is happening as that anti-woke fight has lost all its steam [embedded post]
