Looking to sublet a few private rooms in April with option to renew in NYC's Homebrew grouphouse. This is in a super chill house of 7 focused on learning & having fun 😊The grouphouse has been amazing so far, and we're looking for more community-minded people to join the fray!!

Hallway conversations range from what's the best Rice Noodles in Chinatown to how to build a great coliving culture to how to build a private airline. I'll also add some testimony in the comments!

Perks:
- Super central location, easy for people from any Borough to come thru & to crash a night.
- Spacious house, we have the full floor of an apartment building
- Cheap and high quality food/bars right in the center of Chinatown (ask me for recs!)
- IN-UNIT washer and dryer (super rare in NYC!)
- We host community classes right in our living room
- Elevator
- Newly renovated space
- Soundproof rooms: you won’t be woken up byz sirens, honking, or the subway on the bridge
- Cozy and SPACIOUS living room. We can fit 50 ppl comfortably for socials.
- A small breakout room reserved for focus/meetings/meditations/naps/etc.
- Breathtaking view on rooftop of the Brooklyn Skyline. One of my favorite rooftop views in NYC.

See pics for vibes and DM for deets! Price is $2200-2700 including utilities depending on the room. Move-in and move-out day is fairly flexible.

This was a fascinating study and I really liked seeing actual data about how people felt about AI-assisted thank you notes!

Fwiw, I think I wouldn't have minded it much - as long as I know that they still spent a bit of time refining it.

You got a nice note from a coworker. It was warm, well-written, and you feel seen.

It was also written by AI. Does it matter?

To find out, I ran an experiment that varies how much AI wrote the note and how much effort the sender put in to see how it would be received 🤖🧵:

A huge thing for me in adulthood has been realizing that I can just “act normal” to the best of my ability and not worry about it beyond that. As in: try to be kind, polite, considerate, not hurt anyone if possible, be willing and able to engage in conflict with people I love. And even so not everyone is going to like me and sometimes I’ll hurt people’s feelings and that’s actually just part of life. You don’t know and can’t predict where other people are coming from and it’s not generally your problem what they project onto you; empathy is necessarily imperfect. I used to live in constant fear that I would upset someone accidentally because to me the worst thing in the world was the idea of offending someone or being disliked (just classic people pleaser stuff). But actually that’s an exhausting way to live and results in constant mild dishonesty. The way I aspire to live now is to just be a decent person to the best of my ability and accept the consequences of my actions and apologize when I’m wrong.

you cannot imagine how seriously I take “it is your job to disappoint as many people as it takes to avoid disappointing yourself”

The magic you’re looking for is in the full-assed effort you’re avoiding.

If you told one group to take 3 months to draw the “perfect” portrait, and told another group to draw one portrait a day for 3 months (no matter how bad), which group would be able to draw the better portrait after 3 months?
