I will always remember pitching Paul for a donation back in like 2015 or 2016—as a YC alum—and he sat there bragging and laughing about how much money he had, but refused to donate any (to my org).
Jessica is the one that gave much later
Of course he can’t recognize evil

Very excited about the new Projects feature in ChatGPT. Was super useful in Claude. Unfortunately there's currently no native feature to link previous chats automatically.
You'd need to manually copy relevant content or summaries into the new project’s workspace. Hopefully it's coming!

Spent the last couple of weekends playing around with @framer.com — using a fun new thing as a playground.
1. Learning curve is low.
2. Foundational UI is simple = easy to experiment → break things → ship.
3. Accessibility in yo' face! You should look forward to more options though...soon. 😜

AI really does just run off and do its own thing if you let it. Had it change the margin-bottom of a text section at the top of my app, and it decided to do that but also completely remove the pagination of the data-table at the bottom of the app. 💀

Pro-Tip: I learned from my mistake and now push to Github fairly often. However, after any major change[s] I prompt Claude in Cursor with #GithubCommit and it prints out a title + summary.
