It took a few days for the gravity of this to really sink in. The largest acquisition ever by the largest market-cap company in the world. A truly historic moment in AI. TWENTY BILLION DOLLARS. But what makes this one meaningful to me isn’t just the number—it’s the people behind it. I’ve known @sundeep since 2008, when we partnered with his and @avarma's first company and they later invested in mine. Since then, we’ve collaborated on and invested in dozens of each other’s ventures (and counting). Our families have grown close. Over all these years, I’ve had the privilege of watching the journey from a front-row seat—the building, the setbacks, the recalibration, and the relentless focus it takes to do something hard the right way. No shortcuts. Just patient, inspiring, determined, sustained effort. Seeing Sunny and @GavinSherry reach this milestone after everything they poured into it, is deeply gratifying. This outcome is earned in every sense of the word. Moments like this are a reminder that behind every headline is a long arc of trust, perseverance, and belief—built day by day, often far from the spotlight. Huge congratulations to the entire @GroqInc team. This is one for the generational books.

Dear FBI Dir Kash Patel & POTUS, With all due respect, per Nick Shirley's video, if Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz & other officials aren't indicted on fraud, and if droves of Somalis aren't sent back to Somalia, then the 'rule of law' is dead and the MAGA promise is built on buIIshit. https://t.co/k5yfrxtgDY

A restaurant in Minneapolis called Safari. Seats 35 people. Claimed to serve 18,000 meals a day to hungry children. The federal government paid them for every single one. The children didn’t exist. The meals didn’t exist. The money did. And it’s gone. This is just one piece of a $9 billion Medicaid fraud in Minnesota, the largest in American history. Today I’m publishing the whole investigation. The fraud. The cover-up. The whistleblowers who were ignored.

It’s not just daycares… Somalis in Minnesota have been setting up fake medical centers and fraudulently diagnosing their children with autism to systematically steal billions of taxpayer dollars through Medicaid. Medicaid autism claims: 2018 - $3 million 2023 - $399 million https://t.co/Mg4anQmoLp

🚨🇺🇸 IT'S COLLAPSING: MINNESOTA GOP DEMANDS TIM WALZ RESIGN IMMEDIATELY OVER $9B FRAUD SCANDAL It just went from a political firestorm to a full-blown crisis. Several Republican lawmakers in Minnesota have now released an official public statement calling on Gov. Tim Walz to resign, citing his total failure to stop the Somali daycare welfare fraud scandal that exploded during his tenure. Their message is clear: “Leadership means doing the right thing even when it is difficult, which is why we are calling on Gov. Walz to resign.” Let’s be clear about the timeline here: - DOJ: 98 people charged, 60+ convicted, and counting - FBI: Surged agents into MN months ago - Whistleblowers warned about this for years and @NickShirleyy’s viral video proved it in minutes - Now? His office allegedly just took down the public licensing database mid-investigation Instead of cleaning the house, it seems like Walz has been covering tracks. This is dereliction of duty on a historic scale, and for once, lawmakers are calling it what it is. Resignation is the bare minimum, prosecution should be next. Source: @FoxNews

BAD TO WORSE: Several Republican lawmakers in Minnesota released a statement officially calling on Gov. Tim Walz to resign in light of the unfolding fraud scandal that has spiraled during his tenure. "Leadership means doing the right thing even when it is difficult, which is why we are calling on Gov. Walz to resign."

🚨🇺🇸 ILHAN OMAR'S HUSBAND SCRUBS BUSINESS WEBSITES AS MINNESOTA FRAUD PROBES INTENSIFY Tim Mynett - Ilhan Omar's husband and political consultant - runs two businesses. Both have just gone dark online. Rose Lake Capital, a venture capital firm Mynett co-founded in 2022. Congressional disclosures show its value jumped from $1-1,000 in 2023 to $5-25 million in 2024. In September-October 2025, the website removed all officer bios and names, including prominent Democratic figures previously listed. By late December 2025, was either taken offline or redirected and now displays Spectrum router configuration information. eStCru, a winery Mynett co-launched around 2021. The website is defunct, and the phone line has been disconnected since at least 2023 has been completely erased from the internet. The money: Omar and Mynett's combined net worth went from negative $45,000 in 2019 to $6-30 million by 2024. Omar's congressional salary is $174,000. The math on that wealth explosion raises obvious questions. The timing: Minnesota fraud investigations hit critical mass in 2025. Acting U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson estimates fraud across 14 state Medicaid programs could exceed $9 billion. The Feeding Our Future case alone involved $250 million stolen, 70 defendants charged, and 34 guilty pleas. Omar's 5th District - home to Minnesota's largest Somali community - is the epicenter of many of these investigations. Omar's connection: She authored the 2020 MEALS Act, which relaxed oversight on child meal programs during the pandemic. Critics argue it enabled widespread fraud. Omar says it fed children and says she has "no regrets." She returned $7,400 in donations from 3 convicted fraudsters. A conservative watchdog launched a probe into her finances in 2025. No charges have been filed against Omar. The pattern nobody is naming out loud: websites disappearing, bios scrubbed, values skyrocketing, phone lines disconnected - all while federal agents raid fake daycares and meal sites across her district. Mynett's businesses show classic pre-investigation cleanup behavior: removing names, killing online presence, and making connections harder to trace. There is no evidence directly linking Mynett's ventures to the fraud. But a venture capital firm's value increasing 5,000-25,000x in one year, then scrubbing its leadership page as the FBI intensifies Minnesota probes? A winery going completely offline? A combined net worth jumping more than $30 million on a congressional salary? The technical term for that timing is "unfortunate optics." FBI and DHS surged resources into Minnesota in late 2025, investigating vacant daycares and meal sites used as fronts. Safari Restaurant pulled $12 million claiming to feed 5,000 kids daily from a 35-seat establishment. Quality Learning Center received $4 million despite a misspelled sign, no children present, and being closed during business hours. These operations ran in Omar's district while she championed legislation that reduced oversight. Conservative outlets and MAGA media are targeting Omar aggressively, linking her to the scandal through legislation and geography. Liberal media defend her, noting she has not been charged with anything. Both sides miss the simplest question: why did your husband's businesses go offline right now?

@JayaGup10 Capital deployed has surpassed 2021, haven’t seen average time to markup but my guess is our view is skewed because press covers successful raises, not company formations. Plenty of high velocity early stage firms writing checks in companies where multi-stage firms are conflicted out. I’d be more concerned with competition and conflicts than high valuations.

A MASSIVE 303 page study from the very best Chinese Labs. The paper explains how code focused language models are built, trained, and turned into software agents that help run parts of development. These models read natural language instructions, like a bug report or feature request, and try to output working code that matches the intent. The authors first walk through the training pipeline, from collecting and cleaning large code datasets to pretraining, meaning letting the model absorb coding patterns at scale. They then describe supervised fine tuning and reinforcement learning, which are extra training stages that reward the model for following instructions, passing tests, and avoiding obvious mistakes. On top of these models, the paper surveys software engineering agents, which wrap a model in a loop that reads issues, plans steps, edits files, runs tests, and retries when things fail. Across the survey, they point out gaps like handling huge repositories, keeping generated code secure, and evaluating agents reliably, and they share practical tricks that current teams can reuse.
