Success is having the ability to handling failures gracefully

[Tanvish @Tanvish_X]

- Letting yourself be bad at something instead of expecting perfection

- Trying to understand something you disagree with instead of looking for flaws

- Defaulting to "no" until you think through the commitment

unpopular opinion: designing for power users is the easy path.

yc selling to yc. engineers building for engineers. it's simple as a pitch on how you can 10x mrr in 2 months. but it's also leaving 80% of the market on the table.

the general audience doesn't need complexity - they need someone who bothers to understand them.

you don't need 80% of the features. you need 80% more listening.

It's clear that improving AI applications further will come from responsibly tapping into knowledge from quality data.

Looking forward to more deep dives today into real-world AI deployments and the future of collaborative machine learning.

It's a pattern that keeps repeating
It's very clear with GPT5.2
Overfit the model to produce impressive looking benchmarks, have it excels in a few domains, but fall flat in many others.
There's not enough generalization, the model has been so heavily reinforced that its buried

1. start making bets on your health: sleep, diet, fitness routine, skincare, hair - you will start seeing the impact in your late 20s

2. aim to be the top 1% in one thing or the top 10% in multiple things

3. build a financial safety net to give you to optionality to take a swing at something in your 30s

3. learn to stop people pleasing and giving a shit what others think about you

4. you really are the average of the people you spend time with

5. you are also the average of the media sources you spend the most time consuming

6. kindness is free

7. stop saying yes because you feel guilty saying no

8. don’t meet with a “mentor” every month - it’s pointless. Instead learn by doing interesting work with exceptional people

9. learn to write well, and consistently - this is the highest leverage skill most people can learn

10. just play your own game and ignore 99% of advice, including this

Naval dropped the best life advice

[Andrew Yeung @andruyeung]

25–28 is an interesting age. I've observed an inflection point during this time at which people start to really diverge in their careers.

e.g.
I have friends who, by this age, have become wildly successful, making millions of dollars, and some have even achieved fame.

Other friends have fallen into a dark hole, not able to find employment or steady work, and even starting to engage in destructive behavior, resulting in life-changing circumstances.

I wonder what it is at this time that causes this extreme divergence.

My guess: if you start working at 22 after graduation, it takes about five years to get good enough at something where people start to notice.

But if you don't find traction early, a few years of drifting can push you toward harmful habits that push your life in the opposite direction.
