You call it pre-alpha, we call it “In Utero”. We are just different like that .

didn’t think vc posturing could get any dumber but by trying to bring back “I knew about them before they were cool” they have truly outdone themselvespic.twitter.com/p0FFYp2604

I think you touch on a real thing, I’ve seen this status game appear in a few pitches related to music, like “invest in an NFT that confirms you were into this band first” type interactions that only seem to be important to one particular kindof engineer

Umm... what’s wrong with it? It’s not about cool. It’s practically the job definition of a VC to invest in things early. Advertising. It’s like a programmer bragging they wrote some cool code.

That's exactly the problem - getting in early as an investment is a totally different endeavor. Conflating the two in this way doesn't really work

Why not, besides perhaps seeming tasteless to sensitive types? Same kind of discernment being brought to the party. Only difference is taste mavens seem to want to keep things they like obscure and small rather than help them get bigger and better known. Values divergence.

I guess that's the bargain. Taste mavens will see through the ruse but if you don't care about their opinion you're fine. Toby can probably articulate this better though

Again I don’t see a ruse, just different values at work. The geeks vs mops argument applies, but I don’t see any particular reason to support one side over another.https://meaningness.com/geeks-mops-sociopaths …
