And, you know, one day I got the call and it was like, I don't care what you're doing.
And, you know, I just I just want to back you.
And within a couple of weeks, he told me what he was doing.
And I'm like, oh, you're building a new mobile carrier for privacy.
That's going to be like the hardest thing I've ever heard.
Like you're building the hardest company.
But it's been it's he's he's done an excellent job and is working with, you know, a number of different, you know, parts of the DOD to to make it possible to to.
basically be on your cell phone and to not be found.
That's sort of like the holy grail if you're an operator, if you're part of the DoD, or if you're a high net worth individual who's worried about privacy.
To be able to travel around the world and to not ping different cell towers so that no one can track you, it actually doesn't exist.
All the different carriers can take your data.
He's a great example of, I didn't care what he did.
He knew the biggest problem because he had been at Palantir for so long and I wanted to invest in him, and I knew he was going to have a great team.
But on the flip side, most of the time we invest post idea.
We invest post people having a story.
And I always think you're testing for a couple different things.
You're testing for how quickly someone can learn and the depth of knowledge.
And you know this better than anyone in the interviews that you do.
If you just sit there and ask questions, you can learn a lot about how deep someone's knowledge goes, right?
Well, tell me more about that.
