Days later, Mark Zuckerberg told him: " You can't just come in here and shit on our style." That moment became the foundation for everything that followed. In this episode of The Library of Minds, Ben shares the untold stories from Facebook's design team, why he started Designer Fund when everyone thought it was crazy, and how he backed Stripe, Figma, Notion, and Linear before the world caught on.
