Pathmaker, there is no path. YOU make the path by walking. By walking, YOU make the path.

AI is making marketers lazy. So we made the website do the work instead. Today, we're launching @ployai: the all-in-one marketing platform that turns your website into your hardest working employee. And we're coming out of stealth today with a $27M seed led by @ycombinator and @firstround. I spent 12 years at Webflow as the founding CTO where I built the product, but also started our marketing and sales teams that drove our fastest periods of growth. That experience made one thing obvious: the website is the center of your business. And it's only more important in the age of AI. Foundation model apps can generate assets. Point solutions can optimize pieces of the funnel. But nothing runs the whole growth system: your site, brand, CMS, CRM, campaigns, analytics, SEO, AEO, and customer data all working together. Until now. Teams at @hex_tech and @clay_run, and growth agencies like Tonik and TNT Growth, are already powering sites on Ploy. Hex is generating on-brand ABM pages at scale, Clay is using its data to power a programmatic SEO engine, and TNT Growth is spinning up a landing page for each of their clients’ ads. Wake up every morning with a report from Ploy - with what it did, and what it wants to do next. Approve it. Ship it. Or be lazy and just watch it cook.

For a country that wants to become Africa’s artificial intelligence (AI) capital, Kenya has developed an unusual habit. It celebrates conversations as though they were investments. techcabal.com/2026/06/18/rut… On Wednesday, President William Ruto announced that he had met OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman on the sidelines of the G7 Summit in Évian-les-Bains, Haute-Savoie, France. The two discussed establishing Nairobi as the home of the first OpenAI Academy initiative in Eastern Africa, expanding AI education, and strengthening digital skills.

Sometimes when I'm on a call I wanna explain stuff using diagrams. Its too much of a pain to pull up excalidraw and share screen. So, I'm making this browser plugin for myself. Draw, Edit, Move, Scale objects on screen while you talk.

So it’s still a nonprofit after all

You lowkey gotta larp the lifestyle at first to make it real

New in Claude Design: it stays on brand with your design system across projects, lets you edit directly on the canvas, syncs with Claude Code, and connects to more of the tools you already use.

It seems crazy each time I say this, but school is often a distraction from actual education.

It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby — a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist — to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display in the Hope and Change lobby at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.

disliked by losers. envied by the mediocre. dismissed by idiots. judged by the insecure. doubted by cowards. all good signs.

You're supposed to use every unfair advantage you have. Looks, genetics, connections, dad's money, whatever. There's nothing noble about choosing the hardest path just to feel like an underdog.

A layoff email starting with “Robinhoodies…” would be my 13th reason.

It’s such a simple concept: Just do it. But surprisingly, so few people do.

One thing you don't realize till you have haters is that haters are also stalkers. They're obsessed with you, and in practice this obsessiveness is more disturbing than the nastiness of what they actually say. It's so creepy.

There’s absolutely nothing more pleasing than watching yourself do the things you said you’d do. I really value honoring the promises I’ve made to myself.

Comparing the societal risks of AI to the iPhone is intellectually lazy work for cheap clicks.

I made a personal black hole that makes you take breaks 🕳️ A shader for Ghostty that spawns a small black hole in your terminal - it drifts around, gravitationally lensing your text. The longer you work without stopping, the bigger it gets, until it's basically demanding you go touch grass Take a break and it quietly shrinks away

This is free advice from an expensive psychologist. If you’re an anxious person, do everything for fun. Go to a job interview for fun. Submit documents for fun. Start a blog for fun. Anxiety feeds on importance. Don’t make everything a matter of life and death.
