Instead of using my job title to define myself, I'll use two words: actionable ideas. I explore by turning plans into projects: •Leading BD for a nonprofit as a side gig •Launching a podcast, course, and blog •Cold emailing my way into an editorial internship (A thread)

ChatGPT's hallucinations are concerning, especially when doing research. Have to take what it says with a grain of salt even when it speaks with authority.

Found a site looking a lot like Stratechery (business/tech analysis). Love these breakdowns, sad they seem to have stopped.

"As a result, it seems to me that the majority of new launches are now effectively uninvestable at market". Big point from @cobie. Institutional players are making it harder to get in on new launches publicly. Full article - cobie.substack.com/p/new-lau…

Love seeing crypto intersecting with fintech. Coinbase and Stripe are partnering to make it easier to move money onto Base. These are big players we are talking about making moves. buff.ly/4eLGjXi

Even though I've dramatically reduced my intake of caffeine, I still love coffee and will likely drink it around once per week. It's just a whole new world without drinking it almost daily. How have you experienced reducing caffeine intake?
