He's in the extremely privileged position to fund ten thousand people's potentially world-changing dreams. Instead, he's going to squander it podcasting in his pajamas.

We need someone with the ambition Paul Graham had when he launched Y Combinator.

Silicon Valley is still not a meritocracy. There are still tens of thousands of ambitious people not receiving funding. There's still no way for the early users of massive products to buy equity and lift themselves from the lower class.

There is no greater lever in the world than technology, no better way to create technology than startups, and no more sure way to create great startups than by funding them.
