in a world full of granolas, i didn't expect ours to be the one to get the gwyneth paltrow endorsement !

Pepper Potts uses Granola!

We are looking for a design engineer to join our team @meetgranola. If you value craft and care deeply about the details hit me up!

user interviews on video calls always feel a bit thin.

an entirely separate concern: we’ve always wanted to set up a literal cafe at @meetgranola.

so - in a move that i'm going to call one brilliant solution for two problems that are perhaps not equally important - this thursday morning we’re opening our london office for an mvp Cafe Granola. come to our plant-filled space, have breakfast from pophams, cowork here all morning, and then sit down with one of us to talk about new features.

open to users and non-users alike. (link to RSVP below)

Announcing Talkie: a new, open-weight historical LLM! We trained and finetuned a 13B model on a newly-curated dataset of only pre-1930 data. Try it below!

with @AlecRad and @status_effects 🧵

@bruvimtired unfortunately the answer was "yes they will" - added a new rule - "don't humiliate me in front of the engineers", certain this will never happen again!!!!

after two years as a non-technical member of team vibe coding, you learn to ask the real questions

running a small breakfast at granola on 30 april for chiefs of staff to come build their own personal OS

what that means: using AI to hold all the context (granola, claude, slack, email) the job throws at you, so you can spend more time on the stuff that actually needs a human

you don't have to be technical. you *will* leave with something that works.

rsvp here: https://t.co/id8sMn0ney

[shre @theshre]

-1 to 0 breakfast this Friday for people figuring out the idea maze, together with @sarahdrinkwater. 🇬🇧

If you've recently quit your job or are seriously considering quitting to build, come join a casual, curated breakfast with others in similar shoes.

DM for details!

@K2_181 @meetgranola that sounds like a terrible experience - there haven't been any changes to the prompt/model in that time, but there's one incoming which I'd love to get your feedback on - always appreciate hearing from people with high standards for their notes, it's how ours get better
