“There's gonna be a lot of you know, broken hearts and tears are gonna fall, because I don't think that, that those valuations are warranted, are sustainable and that's too bad.”

Disclosure
Atlas Venture will not fund startups rebuilding existing software platforms
“So for my money, I don't want you to spend my money rebuilding, even if it's a little bit better, something that's been built. I want you to spend my money taking something that's been built that's good and disintermediating those guys.”
