We partnered with @phineasb for our Series A financing and that marked a true inflection point in our journey. Thrilled to see his emphasis on turning venture into a true partnership in building together.

1/Personal news: After stepping away from @firstround 18 months ago, I’m ecstatic to be joining @danportillo and the whole team from @sweatequityventures to redefine partnership in VC – building The General Partnership. Check @thegp for more on what we’re building and who we are.

People so often get risk backwards. Lots of the time it’s much riskier to not start a new project, to not go after a market aggressively. It’s risky to drive slowly on the highway or to never make bets unless you have pocket aces. Passiveness and low risk aren’t the same thing.

Groceries with @airlift_tech is such a hassle free experience in Lahore, specially now they have also added credit card payments. I hope they expand the item list more and more.


An interesting blog post from Sualeh, a full-stack engineer at Airlift, on the challenges with timezones in programming: sualehali.me/articles/2020-… I never would have thought timezones could be challenging to work around in programming.
