10 pieces of career advice I’ve gotten that work to the upside (get promoted quickly) and as downside protection (never get fired)
1. Your #1 job is to make your boss look great. (Almost) everything else is a distraction
2. Big careers are made by running toward the fire, not away from it (don’t attempt if your culture doesn’t reward risk-taking)
3. Bet on yourself. Give away your current job every six months
4. Nothing derails your career like getting divorced
5. Careers are not like public markets. Very low liquidity. You don’t get priced in real time. You can force re-pricing by changing companies, but you don't have unlimited pricing events.
6. A surprising amount of getting promoted is whether people enjoy solving problems with you
7. For the first 10 year of your career, stocks are a distraction. The ROI of getting those first ten years right for your lifetime earnings is much higher than anything you’d make in the market
8. Beyond a certain point, a successful career is a selfish pursuit. It’s ok for your career to be about making yourself happy. Pretending it’s for other people is the dangerous game
9. There’s no career accelerant like a smart boss who gives you tough feedback while providing air cover + support for you to figure it out after delivering the feedback. If you find it, hold on for dear life
10. Vulnerability id a strength, not a weakness.

It was predatory, and it was wrong.

Apple will soon release a feature that detects sleep disorder called sleep apnea. Now we no longer need to blame junk food, binge watching Netflix, scrolling endless reels anymore. We will sleep better now that we know that we have sleep apnea #Apple
Slowly but surely, LinkedIn is now in that uncanny valley where chatgpt is commenting on posts written by chatgpt. A beautiful cacophony of grammatically perfect, completely braindead takes.
The irony here is that Trump may be the only modern US president (post WW2) not (yet) to have committed a major genocide, but yet be the only felon among them.
