I've been reading, thinking with incredible people for the last 4 years. I believe gathering good ideas is really useful as daily reminders. Here is a subset.


Crazy to think that it all started snowballing from here.

both gpt5.1 and gemini 3 are amazing, but the French drop might be the one nobody sees coming.

People seem to love that LLMs can write for them. But that’s like using a forklift at a squat rack to lift 4 plates. Sure, the bar moves, but your legs aren’t growing.


Here is a reminder while this is still valid for LLM’s. It won’t be much longer.

So GPT-5 has a “verbose” parameter to control the amount of yapping. Hopefully this will be remembered like the work from Larry Kenyon of Apple, on the boot up time of Mac’s.


The most important drive: repeatedly surpassing yourself.


Great idea I’ve encountered. Be resourceful with your words.


Education is the great equalizer. The internet helped. AI will take it the rest of the way.


It’s unbelievable how people will tell you the most amazing things if you just listen. They are so shocked to see someone listening, they can’t even help themselves.


These kinds of places make me feel loved.

Thank god IKEA exists.


When things get tough, it really helps to remind this quote from @elonmusk: "One of the hardest things to do, is to be useful. How many people did you help, how much help did you provide to each person on average?" The hardship is not a surprise.


People succeed in proportion to the length of their time horizon.


You can’t track everything, so be intentional about what you do track. Because we can only improve what we track.


I just made a podcast episode with GPT-4o as a co-host. It was one of the best episodes I’ve ever recorded. That’s the tweet.


Honestly, who needs this bottle for anything?

Everyday I’m trying to find people with high-integrity. My 5 pillars for it: Art: Express creativity, Body: Embody strength & health, Mind: Pursue wisdom, Wealth: Build freedom, Soul: Live with meaning and alignment. People who are actively trying to get better on these.


When you coach yourself, you have no other agenda. You are just trying to help yourself. How's everyone not doing this?


In order to maximize adventure, maximize personal responsibility.
