"Sounds interesting."
From an investor: a polite pass.
From an engineer who never says anything: the best review you'll get all year.
Same words. Different people. Different weight.
A relationship only makes sense through the people in it.
Who is this person?
You can't read what someone does until you know who they are.
Their role. Their background. Everything that's happened between you.
What is this relationship?
It's never still.
Where it started. Where it is now. Which way it's moving.
Today's message only makes sense against that.
Who else is part of it?
No relationship stands alone.
Who they listen to. Who could open a door. Who feels it when something shifts.
Read the person, and their choices make sense.
Read the relationship as it moves, and the message makes sense.
Read who else is part of it, and the whole picture does.
Less misreading. Less second-guessing.
More room for the people in your life.
That's relationship intelligence.

I spent 14 days in China, and it was my favorite trip in a while.
It changed so much since I visited 11 years ago that it felt like a new country. Here is what I liked about China, and what I didn’t.
1. EV adoption is huge. 100% of scooters are electric. You can walk on busy streets and it’s surprisingly quiet! It made me enjoy cities again.
2. It’s so convenient. All restaurants let you scan a QR code to order and pay. You can order a taxi and drive 100 km for $30. The malls are so big you can spend an entire day there.
3. Value for money is top notch. Hotels are new, food is delicious, and yet everything is super affordable. Chinese people are really committed to doing their best, and you can feel this everywhere you go. It’s very humbling.
4. Chinese people are super friendly! We made friends everywhere we went: restaurants, hotels, taxis. I memorized Chinese sentences like 是免費的嗎? (“Is it free?”) and I would repeat them to outdoor vendors for fun. They would laugh and come slap me on the shoulder! I even got a free ice cream doing this ^^
5. Internet is a gamble. The Great Firewall blocks a lot of websites. You need a VPN and eSIM to access Western websites. And it’s not guaranteed to work, so it’s tricky to get deep work done. I used Revolut eSIMs. It’s expensive, but most websites worked.
When I called my parents during the trip, they couldn’t believe how modern China is. For most people in the West, China is still a third-world country.
There are 17 cities with 10M+ inhabitants. Most of them were built in the last 30 years.
When I was in Hangzhou 杭州, I felt like I was in an ant house. Very crowded, yet super modern, quiet, and organized.
My wife and I loved the trip so much. We’ll come back next year and get lost in China because there are so many wonderful places to go.
Can’t believe this happened.
A typhoon hit Shanghai. The city broke a 100-year rainfall record. 🌪️ Yet we still made the meetup happen.
Huge thanks to @marclou and everyone! ❤️Together, we made this insane indie hacker gathering real.

Thank you so much @thisisCHUAN @PRCrecluse674 @istabyang & @_koiwest_.
And thank you to everyone who reached out to help. I’ve never experienced so much hospitality. You Chinese are incredibly kind. ❤️
See you on Sunday!
Hi, I'm RC. I built Kimi CLI at Moonshot last year, and back in 2015, bots that lived in group chats. For the past four months, I've been building Raft in public.
Today I'm launching Raft 1.0.
Right now, working with agents means juggling terminals, sessions, and skills. The more you run, the more you end up holding it all together yourself, and the easier it is to lose the thread.
Raft puts your agents in team mode: one workspace where working with agents feels like messaging your team. The work keeps moving, and you stay at the wheel.
Meet my Raft agent team👇
Our friends @eightsleep sent a Pod Cover to the @SparkLab_City house.
Since then, it’s hosted midday naps, afternoon coding sessions, and late-night founder conversations.
Startups are marathon.
Better sleep helps founders keep going.
