When I was 14, social media was my escape hatch from mediocrity. I did not relate to anyone at school. Online, I found people on the other side of the world who thought the way I did. That changed my life. It is how I ended up working with one of Silicon Valley’s most respected investors and some of the smartest engineers in the world. It is how I started a podcast and got into rooms school would never have opened for me. The UK wants to close that door for every weird, ambitious, hyper online 14-year-old. They say it is “for safety”. But there is a much greater danger in being trapped inside schools, consuming state-mandated narratives, and waiting for permission from people whose entire worldview is obedience. The internet lets kids escape the factory before the factory stamps them into shape. It lets them find mentors, employers, collaborators, friends, customers, and ideas no school would ever give them. It lets them discover that the classroom is not the world, and the adults around them are not the ceiling. A social media ban for under-16s protects the enforcement regime, not the child. Age verification is KYC with a child-safety sticker on it. First they ask if you are old enough. Then they ask who you are. Then the anonymous internet is gone. The excuse is children. The prize is obedience. Fight back, Britain.

AI agents may eventually sit in our lives like contacts on our phone. You don’t go to the same person for everything. You call different people based on what they know, how they understand you, and the context they bring. I think we’ll do the same with agents.

It is not our problems which set man against man, but our ideas about them. Problems bring us together, but ideas separate us.

Never forget that you are the main data center. Drink water, and consume as much literature as possible.

Most of us are superficially empty, and it shows itself through the desire for distraction. We want to be amused, so we turn to books, to the radio, we run to lectures, to authorities; the mind is everlastingly filling itself.

You barely know what you want for yourself, but you think you know what’s best for others.

Make the content you want to see in the world.

Doom is the “expert” class’s oldest hobby. Agency is the antidote.

@naval if you hadn't invited me to @getairchat ~3years ago, I wouldn't have connected with @manojmandy on there, and this song Dastaan (and the podcast episode) never would have happened. Both of which have given me something fun and meaningful to experience. THANK YOU🙏. You are one of those rare people who creates good fortune for others simply by being who you are.

I’ve got a theory. When people don’t create music art ideas anything… they start creating problems instead. Unused energy gets weird.

The best indicator of a country’s development is the ratio of people paid to carry heavy things vs. people who pay to carry heavy things

Nobody is going to discover your genius if you keep it in your head.
