Reid the room

Hey all,

Happy almost 4th July (especially to voters in the UK.)

I’m still up to my eyeballs in book edits but somehow found time to write a column for The SF Standard about the recent Presidential debate and the folly of tech megadonors like Reid Hoffman sticking with Biden.

It all reminds me of the “cult of the founder” which caused so much chaos in Silicon Valley a few years ago. Except of course the stakes here are much, much higher.

I hope you’ll take a read and, as ever, let me know what you think.

More soonest.

Paul
