If perfection costs your Sunday, is it still worth having?

@IvanLandabaso @suno This is an amazing growth profile @IvanLandabaso, refreshingly deep and well researched. Thank you, I'm surprised it hasn't gotten more views!

When we don't have a plan, we will arrive in our future, and it will look no different from our past.

Pretty interesting to see this play out in nation states.

The key to happiness is gratitude: truly seeing and appreciating what we already have, and understanding that somewhere, someone would give anything for what we take for granted.

It is difficult to write beautifully, you never know how hard it is until you try. Saw @paulg's newest essay and it is a great example of clear writing.

Being everywhere gets you nowhere, without some idea of what you are aiming for.

No matter your age, you'll always wish you started younger.

But today is the youngest you'll ever be. So start today.

X algorithm has gotten really good recently. Posts are really well matched to interests now. Been a while since a public fight video popped up. Now, just dial down the obligatory Elon push-posts, and it would be great!

You can just do things! There has never been a more exciting time to build than now.

@nikunj @petergyang @alexkehr @jakubkrehel Would you be kind as to share this final skill for referencing, if you don't mind & it's public? Thanks

One of the things interesting about current AI models is something I term "source of truth." What gives you the most accurate output over time. Noticed I switched from ChatGPT - Gemini - Claude because of this.

For PhD colleagues, it's the same. This is crucial for most fields.

Here's a note to future self: I am proud of you and all you have achieved!

Proud that you took the chances and built.

[Ayodeji Daramola @Ayodeji_OD]

In my head are a lot of ideas.

There's never been a better time in history to have those than now!

One small click of a button is all it takes for them to come alive.

It's incredible what we have. Literal magic at our fingertips!

@alexisohanian @tryramp Is there an indicator (across your investments) that often indicate which founders might push through those early stages? Paul Graham talks about sheer will, anything close that you have seen?

@damienghader @Lovable Hi Damien, would it possible to still get access to this? I see a comment you made saying the automation response for this is now inactive. Thanks.

@__drewface Would you be kind as to share the link to this article? Quite intriguing, thanks.

Interested in your tech report or essay. Yes, you can have my mail.

What happened to the cool weekly newsletter I signed up for?

What I have realized is that building what people want makes selling easier. Selling is hard but I have had more fun in the past month than the whole year combined. The difference: a product that solves a problem, one that we improve by listening.

Learn to differentiate between those who show up, support and celebrate you in your growing phase; and those who wait until you become renowned before they privately, publicly or consistently identify with you.
