The observation, in How to Crush It on Twitter — David Perell and Matthew Kobach Workshop, that VCs “crush it on Twitter because the job rewards novelty” — their work is to have ideas others don’t, so they spend a lot of time thinking about novelty, which is what makes people react positively. The workshop’s advice: “be a contrarian without going too far,” echoing Tyler Cowen’s essay on why VC Twitter is so peculiar.
