The very definition of bait-and-switch: my Netflix subscription going from $9.99 to $17.99 for the same exact service
I have to say it does not seem Italy is really relevant in Europe, just by looking at this picture
It seems my American President is creating a real European Union
In my quest to convince Southern Italians to join us in Valtellina on their way to Silicon Valley, I’ll be in Puglia this week, speaking at Forum La Tornanza in Bari on Thursday. If you’re around and you are curious to hear about The Liquid Factory, give me a shout!
There is a reason I always loved open source. You take a Chinese AI and strip the Chinese censorship, and you get the best of both worlds. Genius sherwood.news/tech/perplex...
Great presentation by Luca Foresti last night in a beautiful room at the Village by CA delle Alpi for Sondrio Domani. Amazing what is happening in Valtellina these days...
If you have a startup (or dream of launching one), there’s always a roadblock that seems impossible to overcome... This is your chance to learn how to do it
Awesome talk by Pancrazio Auteri at Sondrio Domani last night about the differences between Italy and Silicon Valley. Great audience. Definitely worth listening www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOhD...
This Friday, we'll host the great Pancrazio Auteri in Valtellina. Directly from Silicon Valley, he will illuminate us on the path towards winning on the global stage. Not to be missed if you are near Sondrio

A lot of people are going to say "I told you so" today. I am not (although I am happy that I picked Bitcoin a long time ago), but if you really want to understand what it really is, I would recommend this book www.amazon.com/Bitcoin-Stan...
The power of Y Combinator:
About 6.5% of recent YC batches become worth $1B or more.
About 25% of those go on to become worth $10B or more.
(Quoting Garry Tan)
The Liquid Factory office is taking shape, and it is already looking pretty good. Looking forward to start hosting our four Entrepreneur in Residence in January
It is time for Europe to stand up tall. 100% agreed. Until then, we'll be forced to send our founders to Silicon Valley. www.ft.com/content/e3e2...
As Draghi said, Europe needs to wake up... It is going to fall behind even more, if we do not create a unified market for startups (from a corporate law standpoint) and much more... This is just another example

I have been thinking about GenAI a lot (and being lucky to be one of the first to use it for something useful). It seems we are at an inflection point, where scaling does not do the trick anymore. That is a huge opportunity for startups, which could focus on SLM rather than LLM... lnkd.in/dTHG-vhx
