La República Argentina recibe con pesar y alivio la restitución de los restos de Lior Rudaeff, ciudadano argentino asesinado y retenido por el grupo terrorista Hamas desde los ataques del 7 de octubre de 2023, y acompaña con respeto y solidaridad a su familia y seres queridos.

I’m from the USA.
This is what 6 months living in Argentina taught me:
1. Nothing is supposed to cost as much as it does in the US. $6 lunch and $750 1br apartment is normal. Anything more = you got fooled.
2. Community actually exists here. Multi-generational families live in the same neighborhood. Sunday dinners with 20 people are normal. Cafes are full all day every day.
3. National pride isn’t cringe. People actually love their country without shame here.
4. Patagonia & The Andes mountains are 3x cooler than the Colorado, West Coast, and Pacific Northwest mountains combined.
5. Buenos Aires has better aesthetics than every US city and it’s not even close.
6. You can get citizenship here in 2 years. Significantly easier than Mexico or Europe.
Living here recalibrated everything: Community, cost, culture.
You need to raise your standards for where you live 5x.

Vercel is 𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 10 years old, according to the State of Delaware, the first US 🇺🇸 state 🫡 Some reflections from the journey:
1️⃣ You can just incorporate things
"In America, they let you start companies easily". It's magical how fast you can get your ', 𝙸𝚗𝚌', your bank account, your LOIs, your payroll set up…
Docusigns fly, investors are eager to take risk, there's an overwhelming sense of optimism around technology. Business owners are the heroes of this society. We must preserve this company-building culture at all costs. Thankful to San Francisco for being the epitome of it.
2️⃣ 10 years is the baseline
It's wild to me that it feels like Vercel is just getting started. I remember prior to starting the company looking at the statistics on the median time from inception to IPO for tech companies. It was 8-10 years then and now looking like 10-14.
There are many tough moments while building a company. But what's a bad day or quarter going to do if you know this is a 15 year journey?
3️⃣ It's always day zero
When I registered the domain name and shipped the first company landing page, there was no Next.js. No Git integration. No CDN. No Turborepo. No AI SDK. No v0. At one point, Jamstack and static sites were all the rage. Now, agents and AI.
The only way to survive in this game is to have tremendous adaptability and appetite for shipping. Our first name was "Zeit", because the only way to win is to capture the Zeitgeist. As @cramforce likes to say, iteration velocity and shipping is the solution to all known s̶o̶f̶t̶w̶a̶r̶e̶ ̶e̶n̶g̶i̶n̶e̶e̶r̶i̶n̶g̶ problems in the world.
Última noche de Mónica Villa (instagram.com/monicavillaok) en casa. Sesión de historias con Lulu Fóthy (instagram.com/lulufothy). Al lado en el sofá, como en un fogón para tres, se acomoda Rafael. Se ovilla. Escucha sin cerrar los ojos. Gracias por esta magia, Mónica!

Hay que reconocer la nobleza en materiales y la pericia en mano de obra, pero esta antigüedad explica ciertas roturas de Los Ángeles...
Todos saben que el 15 sale siempre. Todos compran el 15. Todos ganan todo el tiempo. Nadie pierde nunca. La plata se multiplica!
