Every time I overhear people boarding planes complain “why can’t they just board back to front?” I have to stop myself to not explain that it’s a well-studied problem and it’s shockingly hard to come up with a robust solution better than random

the CEOs of Silicon Valley darlings feel so over-interviewed on the pod circuit compared to their first 2, 5, 10 teammates. personally so much more interested in where early teams came from, why they joined, what they made, what they did next...has anyone done this well?

I'm excited that we're moving towards canvas interfaces I really am. I'm even working on one at the moment. But the thing that gets me is that despite the illusion of the "MAKE ANYTHING!" space, we're actually forcing users to decide what they want to do before they do it.

Delegating will drastically improve your mental health.
I hired a guy on Fiverr to do a few things for me:
• Workout
• Read books
• Journal
• Pursue a hobby
• Meditate
I have so much more free time and my Fiverr guy says he feels so refreshed every day working for me.
