Going back to “school” this September with @KERNEL0x #kb7 👩‍🏫

[Ana Wang @ana_et_al]

On my journey to deepening my learning in web 3, I'm super excited to be joining #KB7 starting 9/9!! 🌱

Thank you @KERNEL0x for inviting me, "mostly a writer", to come build and expand what the web can be. Can't wait.

[Ana Wang @ana_et_al]

This is so cool!!

FINALLY, ON MEANING

Why write fantasy?

Magic is good for you. It stretches your imagination and opens your eyes to the strangeness in the world, awakening a sense of wonder that a work of realism alone often cannot. 🪄🦋🌈👀

🏃‍♀️ every week, but in sprints
📚 physical from library + some ebooks, never audio
🥅 finish 80% of the books I start
💯 ~100/year, mostly non-fiction
🗒 not a note-taker (wish I was)
📊 Notion to track A) gender of authors B) white vs BIPOC ratio of authors C) topic diversity

[Ryan Holiday @RyanHoliday]

How I Read:

- Every day
- One book at a time
- Only physical
- With a pen
- Going down rabbit holes (find the next book in the current one)
- Transfer the knowledge to notes afterwards

[Ana Wang @anawangwashere]

And I've stuck to it for three whole months! Let's keep it going https://t.co/0f20h0bHDx 🌼

What is this lol...Marie Kondo doesn't even preach minimalism. She's actually more maximalist if you need to put her in a box.

[The Walrus @thewalrus]

For the past several years, @MarieKondo has been preaching minimalism. But now, interiors packed with colour, patterns, and clutter are all the rage. Mireille Silcoff makes a case for the maximalist home here: https://t.co/tX4aqNsOBT 1/5 #HomeDesign

Researching colors and came across this article from 1990: "Messing with Crayola crayons is like messing with the rainbow or the spectrum, with the prism of the American psyche." https://t.co/PaHHiNGC6C

@isabel_klee @wondermachine_ Thank you, Isabel!! 🥰

[Ana Wang @anawangwashere]

🌱 Announcement time 🌱

I'm excited to launch my next (ad)venture! @wondermachine_ is a content studio for tech, fashion, work and life.

I've been thinking about the attention economy and the price of hyper-optimization, asking: what is it all for?

[Brianne Kimmel @briannekimmel]

The bottlenecks that come up most from founders & early hires are surprisingly writing related

- Documentation
- Product onboarding/education
- Customer stories
- Investor updates
- Job descriptions

Even if you’re a strong writer, it’s never too early to hire more

[Pentagram Design @pentagram]

“I like to think about data as a way to abstract & describe our reality & not necessarily just as cold numbers. Data can really become a communication material.” @giorgialupi talks to @superhi_ about her work & process https://t.co/HUEFXvy4n7

[SuperHi @superhi_]

💡New on the blog, we talk about side projects vs side hustles:

"You have to have something that has nothing to do with what people think you are and who you are now, and all to do with who you want to be and what you want to create." https://t.co/JlH71Xvqxb
