What an amazing girl. Despite her accent, she was very well-spoken and easy to understand, with her carefully thought out words. I hope nothing but the best for her.

If I may add what really helps me when I get harassed on the internet, it is to raise a shield from the same energy I’m being attacked with.

If somebody thinks they’re better than me, I think I am better than them and I 110% ignore what they’re saying. If they make sure their intentions with comments are to help, only then I consider them.

You have to be some of a dick yourself if you wanna survive online. Don’t attack others, but when you get attacked, being kind to those people won’t help + you might end up feeling like a weak impostor in the end.

Remember: Nobody is living your life, so don’t think others know better than you yourself do. Nobody knows how much you’re dealing with, so don’t take word of pseudo-experts seriously.

I wrote this comment for those who feel weak and lost, so they might find strength within themselves.

Agreed totally.
People tend to write more negative things online without thinking through cos of anonymous nature of internet.
mindset often “We are not physically there therefore I could not possibly hurt anyone with words, therefore I will just disagree and put you down in the roughest possible way”

I think living right now is hard. Because you are constantly judging and being judged. And if you are not outstanding you are worth nothing. Being ” normal” is like being at the end if the scale.

Learn What VCs Actually Want, From a Founder Who’s Raised $1B l Build Mode

Investors want founders who understand the financial reality of their business. Messy data, misunderstood metrics, or waiting until you’re nearly out of cash to start fundraising can cost founders leverage, valuation, and even a term sheet. In this episode of Build Mode, host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Sasha Orloff, founder and CEO of Puzzle…

In this episode of Build Mode, host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Sasha Orloff, founder and CEO of Puzzle and Startup Battlefield alum, to talk about what he’s learned from building companies that have raised more than $1 billion collectively.

Sasha breaks down what investors look for during fundraising, which financial metrics founders should know by heart, and why VCs don’t expect your startup to be perfect—they expect you to understand its reality. He also shares how he nearly lost a term sheet because his data room wasn’t ready, how fundraising diligence changes as a startup grows, and why getting your financial house in order can help founders raise with more confidence and leverage.

They get into:
– What raising more than $1 billion across multiple companies taught Sasha about fundraising
– Why investors value founders who have a strong grasp of their company’s financial reality
– The financial metrics founders should know before pitching VCs
How investor expectations change from pre-seed and seed through Series A, B, and beyond
– Why revenue growth and the quality of that revenue are critical fundraising metrics
– How runway, margins, sales efficiency, and profitability factor into investor decisions
– Why waiting until you’re running out of cash can hurt your fundraising leverage
– How Sasha nearly lost a term sheet because his data room wasn’t ready
– Why financial organization and compliance can influence investor confidence and startup valuations
– What founders should have prepared for the due diligence process
– Why VCs don’t expect perfection—and why being honest about what isn’t working can make for a stronger pitch
– How Sasha’s own fundraising and finance frustrations ultimately led him to build Puzzle
– How AI could change the way startups manage accounting and understand their financial health

Published

August 20, 2026

CYBER TECH TV

Space technologist Robbie Schingler cofounded a satellite company that images the whole planet every day, making visible changes on Earth. He shows how pairing that data with AI creates a “planetary intelligence” we can use to spot emerging threats we might not have seen otherwise. Now he asks: Can we close the gap between seeing a crisis coming and actually stopping it? (Followed by a note from TED guest curators Divya Siddarth and Audrey Tang) (Recorded at TED2026 on April 14, 2026)
