Feed a man a fish, feed him for a night.

Teach a man to fish, feed him for a lifetime.

Teach a man to make AI, the AI does all the fishing and everyone is fed forever. Then the AI accidentally kills all the people and the fish win.

Every human on Earth is at most your 50th cousin. Such a silly family.

Turns out if you do the awkward double hand wave at the end of the video call everyone else does it too. It's awesome. You should do it. I'm doing it and it's a thing in our meetings now.

I spend a lot of time deciding which sentence in the email is gonna have to take one for the team with the exclamation point.

🔥 Use trash instead of rm to delete things via the CLI.

It's safer because you can restore things, and it's a better API for deleting folders and files. It even supports globs for deleting multiple files at once!

npm install --global trash-cli

For the last week, I have started each day by writing “What do I want?” at the top of a blank page.

It’s surprising how useful it is to keep asking yourself this question. Each time, my answers get more precise.

Once I know what I want, I translate the answer into action steps.

0/ 🧵 At Doist, we have for 10+ years competed against Google, Microsoft, and Apple in the hyper-competitive market of todo apps. Some thoughts follow on how you can compete against trillion-dollar Goliaths.

I'll start with examples, and end with core principles.

If you're not embarrassed looking back at the code/work you did 3 years ago, you're not improving.

[James Clear @JamesClear]

Lack of confidence kills more dreams than lack of ability.

Talent matters—especially at elite levels—but people talk themselves out of giving their best effort long before talent becomes the limiting factor.

You're capable of more than you know. Don't be your own bottleneck.
