“Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself. It is easier to wage a battle against distant abstractions than to fight the quiet war inside one’s own soul. Yet this is the only war that ever mattered.”

My new rule this year is: if you want my time, buy me Claude credits.

I'll demo your SaaS, do consulting for you, et cetera. If you buy me between $250 and $500 in Claude credits.

Claude credits are the AirPods of 2026

The Brutalist is about an architect who studied at the Bauhaus.

Its protagonist is fictional, but the Bauhaus was real.

What was it? The most influential design school in history.

So, from fonts to furniture, this is how Bauhaus created the aesthetic of the modern world...

Imagine if more CEOs had this mentality, imagine how different the world would be.

I’m in Atlanta to talk about it tomorrow at @pulte’s event. If you’re there, I’ll bring extra tinfoil.

Can’t stop. Won’t stop. #gamestop 🚀

In 2012, a 17-year-old boy sent an original song to Deadmau5, who was blown away by the talent and signed the boy after listening to the track during a live stream. The song became one of Deadmau5's biggest hits.
