Highlights
My good friend James passed away Monday night.
I was fortunate to have seen him one last time on Sunday, but I couldn't keep it together long enough to express how much he meant to me. That will always be a regret I carry.
Growing up with a strained relationship with my older brother, I scoffed at movies that romanticized brotherhood. I didn't understand them.
That’s until I met James.
He was the first person to truly take a chance on me. As my manager at Postmates, he placed me in a position I didn't think I deserved. He believed in me when I didn't believe in myself. I will forever be grateful for that.
Early in our friendship, I witnessed someone close to him commit a devastating betrayal.
Yet he forgave them. At the time, I thought him weak. Now that I'm older, I realize his forgiveness required a strength I couldn't comprehend then.
In our final moments together, I could barely find my voice, yet he found the strength to tell me he loved me and that everything would be okay. Even then, overwhelmed by cancer and pain, he was still putting others above himself.
He was the best person I knew. I'll spend the rest of my life trying to be even half the man James was.
Rest in peace, Big Bro.
Always knew YC was involved with the founding of OpenAI, but not to the extent it was called “YC AI” and came out of YC Research https://t.co/2DuAsR44ZR
