i hooked my whoop to my work calendar to find which coworker gives me the most stress 🚨
thanks to fable, I reverse engineered whoop to pull per minute heart rate. nd matched spikes with cal events and attendees
I now have a leaderboard and I think about it daily.

Absolutely correct: "The fate of the world depends on more people giving Entrepreneurship a shot"

Marc Andreessen: We need to drastically increase the number of founders:
"It's shocking to me how few people actually give entrepreneurship a shot. The fate of the world over the next 1,500 years is riding on the people who actually want to give it a shot."

Bummer of a night for @blueorigin, but eager to see them press on. If you’ve never missed a flight, you’re spending too much time in airports.

If you’re ambitious I’d highly recommend working in an organization or a team where people have your similar sense of urgency or you will slowly go insane

Great read. Also all the people who valorize just doing things and taking action are basically correct.
I wrote about why being "high agency" is hot personality trait, and a new kind of individualism I see everywhere: one that valorizes action and especially risk. We're living in a gambler's time!

All of these processor vendors are terrible, but I'm finally wondering if Stripe is the least awful.

“All of the people I love hate this stuff, and all the people I hate love it. And yet, likely because of the same personality flaws that drew me to technology in the first place, I am annoyingly excited.” @ftrain

Over the holiday, I built a quick set of apps w/ Claude Code. We have hours of old digitized home movies, and my parents aren't really the Plex crowd. An hour of vibe coding and I had Apple TV, iPhone, & web apps, all streaming video hosted on S3 Cloudfront. The basics:

I'm a rusty programmer, with no real SwiftUI experience, and this was a walk in the park. What an incredible time.

A shell script crawls a folder structure of mp4s and creates a JSON inventory (titles, sections, runtimes). Also creates multiple thumbnails for animated video previews, then syncs it all to s3. Apple TV & iOS apps are written in SwiftUI, distributed to the fam via TestFlight

One of my favorite mediums is the worklog. Software types who simply journal their work process — without fear of looking like a noob for writing a lousy shell script.
Some favorites:
- @lemonodor @ heavymeta.org/ — hacking on ADS-B, GIS, and GPS.

What a blast to watch pros work, tinker, & learn. (Even if it's just finding a cheap mic for an AI birdsong monitor…)
