On More or Less, we often like to discuss how startups are changing and how investors will adapt (and vice versa). And so, I took the opportunity this week to deliver a little rant about the term "lifestyle business," which has often irked me. Lots of other discussion on what's next for Twitter, Threads, social and—because we do read the internet—Taylor Swift.
Hope you enjoy.

Все ждут, что ИИ-пузырь хлопнет. Картинка в голове простая: однажды утром рынок рухнет, как доткомы, и всё закончится. Но это неправильная метафора. Лопается не способность моделей и не «ИИ вообще». Сдувается финансовая архитектура вокруг них - медленно, в другом слое, чем тот, на который направлены глаза.Аргумент про то что растёт выручка можно в 2026 читать ровно наоборот. Пока подписки были щедро субсидированы, вопрос «а что мы с этого получаем» можно... Read more ›

Лучше посмотрим, что можно сделать с обычной брезгливой идиосинкразией, чтобы не морщиться при виде очередного тонколапого Pholcus'а в углу погреба или не вскрикивать от косолапо прошмыгнувшего по плинтус Read more ›
