Please teach your kids about investing, compounding, and capitalism, not about me.

Lazy work used to mean too little output.

Now, with AI, it often means too much and more work for everyone else.

@tobi call it "slop grenades."

A "Slop Grenade" is when you let AI produce the work and pass it on without adding any value (including checking it).

Someone else has to wade through it, catch the mistakes, and clean up the mess.

You save time and look productive but someone else pays for it.

@City_Xtra @elljanderson He’s been impressive, and it’s still early in the season.

@signulll Good. I think this explains the flood of mediocre podcasts on every single social media.

@signulll Contrarian POV nowadays, but insightful.

90% of rules are conventions. 9% are norms with real teeth. 1% are laws of physics. People treat all three identically, the entire game is learning to tell them apart.

Affirm CEO Max Levchin on what it was like being around Elon Musk and the rest of the PayPal Mafia in the company's early days:

"We knew the people in the room intimately. We literally exchanged pheromones by hanging out in these sweaty rooms brainstorming, screaming at each other, spending a lot of time at whiteboards and declaring the other person's ideas idiotic."

"We knew the true version of that person. The ultra philosophical Peter Thiel, the go all in every time Elon Musk, the these days gubernatorial David Sacks."

"They all have the presentation layer, then what they're like at a dinner party, and then what they are when they're really stressed out and their head hurts and they don't know what to do."

"So as you watch one of these people go for something really big, like Elon taking humanity to Mars, which is extraordinary, you know he's a human being. I've seen him sweaty and tired and grumpy at the company kitchen a thousand times."

"They're not gods, they're humans. That inspires you to think, if that guy who's just a normal dude, I spent a lot of time with him, he's normal, and he's going for this big of an idea, I should strive too."

Biggest thing my parents drilled into me growing up that I had to unlearn was that it's not okay to take career risks. If there's something I'm deeply convicted in, I go for it. Even if it fails, I learn so much in the process and don't live with regrets on what could have been
