@NickNemo17 Interesting read- major respect for the work put into it. What kinds of fund do you see surviving

Sparks by Coldplay is a banger

The calm before the storm in NYC today

Didn’t know about this product 5 mins ago. The talking back aspect is interesting but don’t know how I feel about it just yet. I think whoever wins the smart ring push gets to redefine digital identity validation and authentication

[WIRED @WIRED]

A new company called Sandbar has unveiled a smart wearable called Stream Ring, which uses a microphone to record your softly spoken thoughts. And it’s powered by—you guessed it—an AI chatbot. https://t.co/3ZACxB7NCK

This will be massive

We just launched a new product - @Pebble Index 01

It's a small ring, with a button and mic. Press the button, talk and it saves your thought.

I use it many times during the day to jot down reminders, todos, book recs, etc while my hands are full.

Just $75 - preorders open today

@JasonrShuman What about?

I just wanna be a sheepless oremaxer

[James Gordon @tweet_reader57]

Duh moment-Don’t wait around for others to teach you things while you go through school just because you have teachers and a curriculum. It’s the #1 thing I got wrong. Going out and learning random stuff on your own is a way better method to find you what you actually care about.

Did not read

[James Gordon @tweet_reader57]

Just stumbled across @DanielSLoeb1 and @plaffont X profiles and a couple investing book recs from each. 4 in total. Going to give them a read by the new year and see where they take me

Does the USA have any food with as cool of a name as Bangers and Mash

[James Gordon @tweet_reader57]

Thanks for pointing this one out to me Jack….Time to YOLO my entire net worth into “degen infra” plays

[Jack Raines @Jack_Raines]

Real.

A benefit of having kids early that isn’t talked about nearly enough is giving them the chance to grow up into their 20s with living, healthy, and relatively “with it” grandparents

Starting to think I’m Donny instead of The Dude

What was the equivalent of this when people didn’t have smartphones

In other news, there is no better feeling than passing a grey Citi biker on a blue Citi bike

[James Gordon @tweet_reader57]

Solution? dumbphones? Social media restrictions? Local parent groups agreeing to not give their kids screens until a certain age? Not sure, but optimistic that there will be some correction away from it all, maybe one I could contribute to. First step is to put it down myself.

[James Gordon @tweet_reader57]

First iPhone in 6th grade and now at 24- not looking at my phone when I have a free moment is pretty much an active decision that I have to make. One new year’s res is to make picking up my phone the active/friction decision. Im just not producing nearly enough.

[Thomas Sowell Quotes @ThomasSowell]

Hugh Grant: "It's been very, very depressing watching Big Tech kidnap their lives, and to see children really finding it very, very difficult to get properly interested in anything that isn't a screen."

[James Gordon @tweet_reader57]

And I understand that it’s harder and harder for parents to not cave and let their kids have a screen because “everyone else is doing it” and as a kid that’s among the strongest forces of justification to do something, and consequently resentment if parents hold them back from it
