Want to boost patriotism? This paper found that folks pay back governments who help them. There was a direct link between receiving government help in the New Deal & patriotism in WW2. Those who received aid volunteered more, bought more bonds & won moreπŸŽ– https://t.co/3XQWIoz5Vh https://t.co/6rBL8wn3FE

What do you know about the mother of all demos?

Doug Engelbart: "We made own computer display. You couldn’t buy them. It cost us $90,000 in 1968 money. We just had to build it from scratch. The display driver was a hunk of electronics 3 feet by 4 feet." https://t.co/M7rSBObHcu https://t.co/x3gCou761N

Wow, something of a bombshell in this interview. I always wondered why Microsoft raised venture funding. They didn't need it. The VC involved hypothesizes it was partly because Ballmer wanted to be sure he got the equity he'd been promised.

Jessica and I had dinner with some founders in the current YC batch who also did YC ten years ago. It's great when YC alums do YC again. Their batchmates benefit from their experience, and for the partners it's like seeing old friends again.
