a few years ago i got covid and never recovered. i went from exercising every day to completely bedbound. lost 40lbs. in and out of hospitals for over 2 years. saw 20 doctors. bloodwork came back normal. "you're probably just stressed from being a founder."

the best and worst part of being a founder: best: - you chart your own course every day. nobody tells you what to do. worst: - you chart your own course every day. nobody tells you what to do.

this is true and very exciting. we're about to be done with deterministic interfaces that look the same for every user. entering into a world where every pixel is generated entirely on the fly based on context and use-case.

a healthy person wants 1000 things. a sick person only wants 1. and that makes you a target. when you're desperate to feel better, every supplement, every lab draw, every new protocol from some guy on twitter feels like progress. but it's not always progress. it's dopamine. it's the feeling of doing something when you don't know what to do. i fell into this trap too. it's really hard not to. i spent months buying every supplement i read about. stacking protocols. getting blood work done every few weeks. obsessing over biomarkers. reading every reddit thread. convincing myself that the next thing would be the thing. most of it was noise. the real problem was i was treating symptoms and never asking why i was sick in the first place. that's what the whole system runs on. your doctor. the supplement industry. instagram health influencers. all of them sell you the next thing to manage how you feel, not fix what's wrong. the wellness industry doesn't make money when you get better. it makes money when you keep searching. the turning point for me was realizing i wasn't making progress. i was just staying busy. so i changed my approach: a) wrote down every hypothesis for what might be causing this b) picked one. tested it for a month to prove myself wrong, not right c) found other patients with my condition and compared notes i didn't just have an illness. i had become it. every waking hour went to obsessing over it. committing to one experiment didn't cure me. but it gave me my life back. i had one thing to focus on. if you can: test one thing. give it time. find people who get it.

looking for a part-time content intern to help run a portfolio of social accounts 👀📸 you're a perfect fit if you are: - a college student - chronically online - health obsessed - deeply AI-native - slightly unhinged 20hrs/week, remote, US, Canada, LatAm only. DM or comment to apply!

this is why early startups should focus on hiring senior talent. otherwise, every task you delegate still routes back through you, and they they cost you the scarcest thing you have (your time).

VC's will never tell you the real reason they passed. if they say "you're not that impressive" and you somehow make it, you're never calling them to fund your next round. so instead they say "we need to see more traction". always listen to the no. never listen to the reason.

an uncomfortable amount of founders have capitalized their companies on dishonesty. but vc is so competitive that nobody cares. investors would rather fund a fraud than miss the next unicorn.

interesting proposal - but where do you draw the line? if any company that uses public data, infrastructure, or research owes the government 50% of its stock once it becomes successful, then why stop at AI? should we retroactively take half of pfizer, tesla, or facebook too?

two kinds of people are taking peptides: biohackers squeezing the top 5% of performance out of their life & chronically ill people who have run out of better options. very different motivations. very different stakes. very different markets.

the best people already make more money than you can pay them. your job isn't to convince them the offer is good. it's to convince them the mission is worth the pay cut.
