He carried out the attacks with an “AR-15 style assault rifle,” Falls Township Police Chief Nelson Whitney said.

New York had its share of startup investors and venture-backed companies, but it wasn't a hotbed of tech activity. After four years at the company, Wang left but chose to stay in New York to launch Bearworks, providing software to sales reps. In 2014, prior to the run of New York City IPOs, California was the leader, followed by Massachusetts and then New York. During the record fundraising year of 2021, New York startups received almost $50 billion across 1,935 companies. Northern California has long been the heartbeat of the tech industry, but Murat Bicer remembers what it was like for New York startups before the rush.

I lived in Rota, Spain, for a while on assignment with the Navy. I grew up in Texas and was used to driving everywhere and cranking the AC, but that changed in Spain. I walked, biked, and carpooled to save money, ate locally, and learned to keep cool on the cheap. Now that I'm back Stateside I've taken the lessons I learned while deployed in Rota, Spain, and used them to save thousands by employing a few simple lifestyle tweaks. I stopped spending on things and chose experiences insteadIn that tiny Spanish apartment, I had very little room for things.

Ether , which has joined bitcoin in recent months as a sort of large cap, blue-chip trade in crypto, was down by 1.4%, after finishing July down by 3.35%. It was under extra pressure due to a recent exploit in DeFi giant Curve, however. Whenever investors hear the word hack ... it puts the whole crypto market on the backfoot and that's what's happening here," Gilbert said. Bitcoin volumes have also dropped significantly from their recent highs and have failed to reclaim them despite the price of bitcoin showing so much resilience this year. "When bitcoin heads south so do most altcoins ... and they're selling off a little bit further given what we're seeing with Curve."

Prosecutors say a family that made $7.6 million from recycling defrauded the state of California. The family, based in Southern California, is accused of recycling materials they purchased in Arizona. Investigators recovered more than $1 million worth of "illegally imported beverage containers." The recycling operation earned the family $7.6 million, according to a statement from the office of California Attorney General Rob Bonta. Between 2010 and 2019, at least 93 people in California were convicted of recycling fraud, according to a report by the nonprofit Consumer Watchdog.

"High level, we want this to become something like your personal AI friend," said developer Div Garg, whose company MultiOn is beta-testing an AI agent. The race towards increasingly autonomous AI agents has been supercharged by the March release of GPT-4 by developer OpenAI, a powerful upgrade of the model behind ChatGPT - the chatbot that became a sensation when released last November. GPT-4 facilitates the type of strategic and adaptable thinking required to navigate the unpredictable real world, said Vivian Cheng, an investor at venture capital firm CRV who has a focus on AI agents. OpenAI itself is very interested in AI agent technology, according to four people briefed on its plans. There are at least 100 serious projects working to commercialize agents, said Matt Schlicht, who writes a newsletter on AI.

BRAKE WIND Every Tesla offers ‘Emissions Testing Mode,’ which allows you to deploy fart noises throughout the cabin. Illustration: John W. TomacRECENTLY, I went to Austin, Texas, to help out a friend who had just given birth. It soon became clear that my postpartum assistance would mainly involve driving her Tesla around town to buy beer and Pampers. One day, while I was testing the limits of that 3.1 second 0-60 mph acceleration time—something my 2010 Honda CRV could only dream of—the empty passenger seat…farted.

This could disrupt the way software is created, distributed, and used, VCs and startup founders say. This outcome would flip the traditional software industry on its head, calling into question the value of SaaS companies in a world where everyday people can build software themselves. "This is the final chapter of software eating the world, where a bunch of people can create enterprise software within the enterprise." A 'healthy pressure' for traditional SaaS providersTo be sure, the death of the traditional software company still seems a long way off. However, even skeptics admit that the threat of generative AI to traditional SaaS will push established software companies to prove their worth.
"Autonomous AI agents" are AI bots that can plan and prioritize to achieve user-provided goals. However, the rise of AI agents has sparked concerns around safety and the potential for AGI. From assistants to digital friendsHowever, AI doomsdayers don't have to be too worried yet — the performance of these AI agents have often been less than stellar. Without the proper guardrails, AI agents with unrestricted access to the Internet may similarly take unanticipated steps to complete its goals, like transferring money from a bank account. And sometimes, the misuse of AI agents is intentional, rather than accidental.
And as the Biden administration pushes changes that seek to aggressively remake the car market in favor of EVs more quickly than previously anticipated. Tesla's lowest-priced model today is the Model 3 base MSRP of $41,990. There are also more financing options available in the auto loan market designed specifically for environmentally friendly cars. "There's nothing wrong with having a basic car as a first car. Tesla said its overall efforts have driven the cost of drive units, which include the car's electric motor, as low as $1,000.
But for CRV general partner Anna Khan, pitches boil down to five key elements and one to avoid. Here's Insider's exclusive chat with the investor about what she looks for in a startup pitch. The CRV general partner recently tweeted about a founder who thanked her for being engaged during his startup pitch, saying, "Most people just stare at me for 30 minutes and then pass a week later." The investor shared with Insider what she considers the five elements of a successful startup pitch — and one popular rule of thumb that founders should avoid. Interestingly enough, having a large legacy competitor isn't necessarily a bad thing for vertical-software startups, Khan said.
Pickleball has exploded in popularity in recent years, becoming America's fastest-growing sport. From building relationships to escaping stress, here's why VCs are obsessed with the sport. In the background, pop music floated through the air as the group prepared for a trying battle of wits and athletic prowess — pickleball. Once reserved for the quiet neighborhoods of suburbs and 55-plus retirement communities, pickleball has exploded onto the tech and VC scene in recent years, investors say. A networking toolAnd other aspects of the sport make it an ideal pick for a hobby or networking tool, VCs added.
Insider talked to VCs about the rising trends they say will revolutionize the way we work and live. Insider spoke with 15 venture capitalists about the trends and verticals they think are most likely to revolutionize the way we work and live today. Therefore, startups that will thrive going forward are those that embrace a mix of in-person and remote work, known as hybrid work, Thacker and other VCs said. An increase in workers caregiving for aging or sick family members is also supported by flexible work, the CRV general partner Kristin Baker Spohn said. "A lot of employees, whether it's the Great Resignation or the pandemic, found themselves changing the way that they work."
The company raised $26 million in a Series B round from travel investors and entrepreneurial celebs. Its newly appointed CEO, Michael Wolf, walked Insider through the pitch deck he used to raise cash. "My existing investors had highlighted to me that the funding environment is the most difficult it's been in 20 years," Wolf told Insider. Wolf said hotels had been reaching out to ResortPass to get amenities such as flexible working space added to the app. Wolf walked Insider through the pitch deck he used to help raise the app's recent funding round below.
Argus, which makes compliance software for crypto funds and trading firms, has raised $2.8 million. After FTX's fall, crypto firms are focused on compliance but worried about costs, Argus' CEO said. To prevent insider trading, Argus checks employee trades against a list of restricted assets, looking for overlap. Although other startups, such as ComplySci, also offer financial compliance software, Rapaport says that Argus distinguishes itself through its focus on crypto, where compliance procedures are relatively new terrain. "And so they're probably not thinking, 'Can we bring on a new compliance software?'
Iterable's former CEO Justin Zhu said he was removed due to racial bias, not his use of LSD in 2019. "The 'LSD CEO' label is deliberate, but it's a wrong characterization," Zhu told Insider. "While Andrew is half Asian American, I don't think his experiences — better, worse and similar — change what I went through," Zhu told Insider. One particularly tense encounter with investors took place in June 2020, Zhu told Insider, during an unusual meeting in person during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic. Zhu's attorney, Charles Jung, told Insider that the goal of the lawsuit was to shed light on legal protections that allow workers to report their experiences of bias.
It raised a $1.4 million pre-seed round from Costanoa Ventures, NextView Ventures, CRV, and others. Their first idea was a lot like their payments startup Waivr, but without the focus on subscriptions. That beta test on the market had 300 people, whose transaction data they gathered. The founders noticed that people were overdrafting mainly on subscription payments, so they moved to focus on that. That's how Waivr, a startup seeking to facilitate real-time subscription payments with safeguards to prevent accidental overdrafts, came to be.
