On a recent episode of the All In podcast, one of the hosts made a remark along the lines of "in the future [when AI has replaced the knowledge worker], insatiable demand will exis…

Relationship goals

Totally. I opened the site and thought "Ok this is cool," but didn't get much further.

This product gives me the same sketchy vibes as Mighty[1]. There's absolutely no way I'm going to give up one of my most sacred tools to a funded company whose going to expose my e…

I wondered the same. Then I realized it sends out requests to googleapis, segment, and sentry. Imagine having data on every dev's terminal workflow? Ca$h.

Has anyone pivoted out of tech completely? What was your experience like?

Recently joined a FAANG and did this same thing last week. 0 chance I'd install company software on my personal device.

tl;dr: Silver: "Shit... I was so close to Gold." Bronze: "Damn, I medaled!"

In large-ish meetings (3+ attendees), I usually turn off my camera (and mute my mic) when I'm not the one talking. For less formal meetings I might relax this. But, in general, I'v…

We actually do know what, or who, the denominator is. A large majority of tweets come from a small minority of tweeters: roughly 10% of tweeters account for roughly 80% of all twee…

Secretlab.co makes fantastic chairs!

Did we just become best friends?

For those looking for more info and practical advice on this topic: check out the Huberman Lab podcast. The host, Dr. Andrew Huberman, spends four episodes talking about sleep. He …

This was exactly me last night. After four hours I realized I'd had a headache the whole time (from four straight hours of screen-time), and yet, my lizard brain snatched the reign…

I am really impressed by the ideas here. I read the whole thing from top to bottom (rare) and I was shaking my head yes the whole time. Bravo. I hope Apple implements all of this.

Taking a 10-20 minute break to practice non-sleep deep rest immediately following a period of intense focus (~90 minutes or so) has been shown to increase rates of learning of what…

I've had a stance on this for awhile that paying ransoms to hackers is no different than cooperating with terrorists. Like others have mentioned here, this is a national security i…
