feels like a good time to seriously rethink how operating systems and user interfaces are designed
(also the internet; there should be a protocol that is equally usable by people and agents)

As a founder, you set the pace every day.
And it restarts the next day.

Humanoids were long a thing of sci-fi, then they were a thing of research, but today, with the launch of NEO, humanoids become a product.
NEO is the first step on a journey towards a more abundant future and we’re excited for you to join us on this journey. Order your NEO today.

Design is differentiation.
@bnj and the @variantui team are proving that you can train generative models to have taste. And taste still wins.
If you want your generations to feel designed and not…generated
We hid a few invite codes to @variantui in this video
The first 100 get unlimited credits, reply for a hint

Much to study in how Nothing earned the right to exist in their David vs Goliath battle with Apple
Today, @nothing raised $200M Series C at a $1.3B valuation.
This marks the start of our next chapter: From building the only new smartphone company of the last decade, to creating an AI-native platform where hardware & software converge.
Grateful to our community who’ve been with us from day one.

>OpenAI was founded in 2015. The seminal transformers paper “Attention is All You Need” wasn’t published until 2017. You have to be in the water.

Sometimes I get asked career advice …
Patience is undervalued.
Too many distractions promise quick wins, especially when things are hard.
They are enticing — you can justify pursuing them as a way to avoid a “local maximum.”
Later you find out that they are also hard.
If you’re not careful, you can find yourself always searching and jumping from one shiny object to another.
It’s almost always better to just finish the job.

There are really only two rules for new consumer tech:
1. Make it interesting
2. Make it easy
I see far more products die from being overengineered than underengineered

If it's important,
Do the hard thing.
Even if the path is long,
Even if the road is treacherous,
Even if you will be misunderstood,
Do the hard thing.
Go all the way.

Introducing @cradle_health, co-founded with @huntercoledavis. We're building reversible cryo technologies. Think the hibernation pods you see in space movies for long-term travel - we want to build that.
We’ve raised $48M, built a world-class team of scientists and engineers, and achieved electrical activity in previously cryopreserved neural tissue.
You can read more about us at cradle.xyz

I can't imagine a non-founding CEO do this. Even when you think, where else could this thing go after a decade, Airbnb pushes you to believe things can go further still.
