How to get over your fear of being seen + get comfortable putting your face / voice out there. Also, watch the documentary I mention here because I SWEAR you will understand all of this when you do.

“No matter how isolated you are and how lonely you feel, if you do your work truly and conscientiously, unknown friends will come and seek you.” — Carl Jung

[aether @bluewdrift]

the real reason you’re tired all the time: it’s not your workload. it’s your open loops. the text you haven’t answered. the apology you owe. the decision you’re avoiding. the conversation you keep postponing. these run in the background of your mind all day, draining your battery. close your loops. watch your energy return. mental clutter is more exhausting than physical work ever will be.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

I’m convinced genuine excitement is the key to life. Some people just have a light in their eyes. It’s an excitement for life. Not just for the highs, but also for the texture and friction of the lows. Hard to define, but you know it when you see it. Excitement is contagious.

[Blake Burge @blakeaburge]

Major cheat code for life: Become low maintenance. Don’t create unnecessary drama. Don’t make people guess. Don’t need constant reassurance. Be clear, kind, confident, and steady. The people who make life easier for others become the people everyone wants around.

This 50-minute lecture by Jeff Bezos will teach you more about business than a 2-year MBA program.

Bookmark it and give it 50 minutes today, no matter what.

[Collins🦋 @collinstimbela_]

Took magnesium glycinate last night and just woke up feeling like I slept for a thousand years 😳.. I need the scientific explanation RIGHT NOWWWW.

Yes this is my stuff 🤎🤏🏾

[Raytar @Raytar]

Anthropic posted the best prompting lecture I've ever seen... and deleted it two days later.

I watched the recording last night and kept pausing it. Each time I opened Claude to test what they showed.

Two Anthropic engineers showed in 24 minutes how the Claude team actually uses it.

Not tips. Not hacks. The way they actually talk to Claude. Every day. For real work.

After 3 minutes you'll want to rewrite every prompt you've ever sent.

[Khairallah AL-Awady @eng_khairallah1]

Obsidian + Claude Code = 24/7 personal operating system.

Works while you sleep.

The people who build this tonight will never work the same way again.

Watch it and Bookmark it now.

She lost her voice that week.

Standing in Killian Court, MIT Class of 2026 in front of her. Lisa Su, AMD's Chairman and CEO almost didn't make it through the speech.

She gave it anyway.

Fall of 1986. A 17-year-old freshman from Queens, born in Taiwan, walks into MIT. Confident in her math.

Two weeks into Rooms 6-1 and 6-2, that confidence breaks. Everyone around her is just as sharp. Many are sharper.

Forty years later, she runs the company at the center of the AI compute race. One of roughly 10% of Fortune 500 CEOs who are women.

So when she gave the Class of 2026 her real career advice, I stopped scrolling.

"The best people find ways to make their luck."

Not luck as timing. Not luck as chance.

Luck as a decision.

She broke it into four moves:

→ Take the risk to work on something genuinely hard.
→ Choose problems where you don't already know the answer.
→ Surround yourself with people who make you better.
→ Believe you can actually change the outcome.

That's the whole formula.

No mention of network. No mention of credentials. No mention of timing the market.

25 years building and advising tech and Web3 companies taught me the same thing. The operators who win aren't the smartest in the room. They're the ones who keep choosing the hardest problem in the room.

Every founder I've backed who built real traction did this exact thing. They ran toward the unsolved problem before it was obvious or fundable.

The Class of 2026 is graduating into the most consequential technology shift since the internet.

The same rule applies to you, reading this right now.

You don't need more luck.

You need a harder problem.

What's yours?

[Khairallah AL-Awady @eng_khairallah1]

Google CEO, Sundar Pichai:

"If you don't learn to how to orchestrate agents now, you'll spend 2027 catching up to people who started today"

In 30 minutes he explains why the best engineers stopped writing code and started building agents.

Most people think building an agent requires an engineering degree.

It doesn't. It requires one guide and one afternoon.

C.S. Lewis once said:

“To be happy at home is the end of all human endeavor. The sun looks down on nothing half so good as a household laughing together over a meal, or two friends talking over a pint of beer, or a person alone reading a book that interests them; and all economics, politics, laws, armies, and institutions, are only valuable in so far as they prolong and multiply such scenes.”

[Lorwen Harris Nagle, PhD @LORWEN108]

A Stanford psychiatrist says modern anxiety is not caused by danger.

It's caused by tiny habits that teach your brain to panic when nothing is actually wrong.

You do them every day.
And you call them normal.

6 habits that quietly teach your nervous system to panic:▼▼▼

1/ Reaching for your phone the moment you feel uncomfortable.

Let me get this straight

Peter Thiel was an early Silicon Valley donor to Trump, who currently sits as President of the United States

He hand picked JD Vance, who goes on to become VP and is still in that position

His friend and former cofounder, Elon Musk, is the richest man on the planet and is about to do the biggest IPO ever in history

His fund was one of the earliest backers of Space X, amongst many other successful investments

Literally everything he wished for has happened. Everyone he wanted in power is currently in power.

But, he is now leaving the country to move to Argentina. What am I missing here?

[Muji Singh Rangi @mujifren]

He tried to warn everyone

[Sameer @BesuraTaansane]

Biharis taught CONg a lesson for Shrinate’s filthy comments

“People of Bihar are sweaty, wear dirty clothes, RaGa hugs, kisses them on the head,without worrying about getting an infection, doesn’t wash hands after handshake, feeds anyone from his plate”

[BreakingProd 🇮🇳 @BreakingProdOG]

@mohitlaws In short, pappu tried vote chori and still lost 🤣

[Amit Malviya @amitmalviya]

Rahul Gandhi!
Another election, another defeat!
If there were awards for electoral consistency, he’d sweep them all.
At this rate, even setbacks must be wondering how he finds them so reliably.
