the line between "I think this person is going to do something to change the world"

and "there's a 10% chance this person ends up in jail"

is way thinner than I initially thought

Honestly we should ban all social media for one year, a societal “touch grass” reset

my lightly disagreeable take is that company holiday parties should not allow +1s

It's not even a cost thing, though that helps. Holiday parties are meant for people at a company to vent, learn what else is happening at the company, and build rapport with people you're currently on projects with

When you work at a startup for the most formative years of your life and you do the math on how much you could’ve made if you had gotten a normal job instead

When are they gonna publish the results from the largest universal basic income experiment of all time: the people working on Alexa

I always thought there’s was an opportunity for a new publisher focused on 100 page books. This is typically too short of a length for people to buy on a per book basis, so you’d do it as a monthly subscription

We did a Friendsgiving where you had to make “weird fusion cuisines”

My entries were gochuchang chicken stuffed with kimchi fried rice + matar paneer in Japanese curry

my toxic trait is whenever someone tells me about a slight inconvenience about their job I tell them they should just quit and start something

totally anecdotal, but I feel like for so many people they met their partner when they were on the fence about going on the date or to an event where they met their partner

I feel like it's something about coming in with low expectations and then being really happily surprised

Gotta give palantir credit - have chatted with several ex-palantir people looking for their next company to join and they explicitly have mentioned wanting to join another ex-palantir founding team

What’s the big trend happening in your industry?

One thing about the internet town square degrading is I’m learning less about other industries where I might borrow ideas from

So figured I’d just explicitly ask

Waymos are probably going to do more for healthcare than all digital health startups lmao

I've been going down the chronobiology rabbithole, aka the study of biological rhythms.

Thanks to massive genetic databases + people filling out surveys, we’re identifying clusters of genes that tell us more about our underlying circadian rhythm.

I’m excited to now need to cross post between six different text based social media networks

Honestly I think the quote tweet function was a mistake in the original twitter and they should have waited to implement it here

The fun was in the discourse and discussion in the replies, quote tweet is basically used explicitly to dunk on people

In New York the divergence in where people are in their lives at 30 is crazy

I had one friend tell me they were pregnant and in the same night someone texted me at 1130
PM asking me “what’s the move tonight”
