bike commuting has a lower mortality rate per mile than driving, eliminates parking costs, improves cardiovascular health, and means you arrive having done your workout. it is objectively the superior commute and we have spent 70 yrs engineering cities to make it feel impossible

When you show people an alternative reality, one that prioritises humans over cars, and gives them back their city, they will vote for it again and again.
Jonathan Berk@berkie1

Emmanuel Grégoire has won the race to succeed Anne Hidalgo, the transformational leader since 2014, as the next Mayor of Paris. He’s pledged to build on her legacy, continuing the expansion of the City's bike network & growing the city’s network of neighborhood green spaces. 🇫🇷

The mayor of Paris @Anne_Hidalgo is my personal hero. She turned a global city with some of the most chaotic streets filled with cars into a paradise for pedestrians and cyclists. She did it not because it was politically easy (it wasn’t) but because it was the right thing to do.
Financial Times@FT

The city’s transition away from the car, though fantastically chaotic, has become a global role model, says Simon Kuper: ft.trib.al/PENku7n

everyone wants a village, but no one wants to be a villager > drive your friends to the airport > go to their party even when you're tired > stop cancelling last minute > host at your place > support the wins & losses it's worth every ounce of effort
E5@E5THXR

Hate to break it to you guys but sometimes you have to do things you don’t like for the sake of having a community. Avoiding consistency with the people in your life is working against us and the data already shows it. If you think connections can be sustained on absence carry on

At @ns, we're doing the work to build that confidence. Each month, a new cohort of 100+ people come from around the world to our island campus. Like clockwork, a mix of NS Core and longtermers help folks from every culture move in, find a rhythm, and level up (physically, professionally, or otherwise) together. This is a giant effort by many people. And while there is still much to improve (and I am as self-critical as they come), I do look around with increasing confidence at the beginning of each month, knowing that we continue to iterate and get better with each rep.

One of my favorite @DwyaneWade quotes: "Real confidence comes from doing the work." After Game 4 of the 2006 Finals, Wade went to the gym at 3 AM just to shoot free throws. He told his trainer the title would come down to those shots. He was right. He hit two free throws with 1.9 seconds left in Game 5 to take a one point lead in the game and a 3-2 lead in the series. Later, he explained why he wasn't nervous: "You've done it over and over. You've seen yourself do it." He watched the ball go in the net so many times that he knew he wouldn't miss. Most people try to "visualize" success as a form of wishful thinking. For DWade, visualization was a memory. True confidence is the calm that comes from having a mental library of successful reps to fall back on.

Tonight was one of the best examples I’ve seen of the @ns community coming together. This event was run by the community - they invited the guests, created the agenda, and transformed the café.
NS@ns

From tonight's Claude Code meet up. @balajis opened and then a bunch of NS members and entrepreneurs held a series of lightning talks to share how they use @AnthropicAI to get stuff done.

There’s something special about being in a room where everyone’s building something. Our students spent the day at Network School (@NS), immersed in real conversations (with @JacksonSteger, @Balajis, Dawn and Nick), a @Kickstarter showcase, and founder 1:1s. Learn. Burn. Earn.

One of the best things you can do for your happiness and cortisol levels is to minimize expectations in all aspects of your life.
Founder Mode@Founder_Mode_

Jensen Huang: "People with really high expectations have very low resilience." "I think one of my great advantages is that I have very low expectations. And I mean that. Most of the Stanford graduates have very high expectations. And you deserve to have high expectations because you came from a great school. You were very successful. You're top of your class. Obviously, you were able to pay for tuition. And then you're graduating from one of the finest institutions on the planet. You're surrounded by other kids that are just incredible. You naturally have very high expectations. People with very high expectations have very low resilience. And unfortunately, resilience matters in success. I don't know how to teach it to you except for I hope suffering happens to you. And I was fortunate that I grew up with my parents providing a condition for us to be successful on the one hand, but there were plenty of opportunities for setbacks and suffering. And to this day, I use the phrase pain and suffering inside our company with great glee. And I mean that. Boy, this is going to cause a lot of pain and suffering. And I mean that in a happy way, because you want to train, you want to refine the character of your company. You want greatness out of them. And greatness is not intelligence. Greatness comes from character, and character isn't formed out of smart people. It's formed out of people who suffered. And so if I could wish upon you, I don't know how to do it. For all of you Stanford students, I wish upon you ample doses of pain and suffering."

@BarnesLucas_ @ns Yes we support families! And a 30 day stay is our minimum stay length. We recommend trying to arrive on the 1st of the month. x.com/JacksonSteger/…
Jackson Steger@JacksonSteger

We started an on-site toddler drop-off service at @ns for kids aged 0-4 last month. The head nanny keeps iterating and making it better. Here's the schedule she made for this week. This (free) product feature enables new parents to fully engage with the rest of our community.

@JacksonSteger @ns What about families? Do you/will you consider 30 day stints options? I am from Canada and would love to learn more.

Clarification: @ns is not ONLY for founders, as some folks apparently have been assuming. We attract smart, kind, and ambitious people. This includes bold builders and excellent engineers, but not exclusively. Others create content, work a remote job, or are in between roles.

Just because a community member might not be a founder doesn't mean we would listen to their input any less. We have several forums for receiving feedback, including: - Tons of office hours with different team members - Regular surveying - A weekly lunch for a mix of the core team and long-term members - Any other informal ways in which feedback naturally arises - Internal channels and meetings where we aggregate, share, and process feedback so we can iterate on features or design new ones. The entire core team also lives and eats here, so we are users of the product too.

@JacksonSteger @ns What role do you see community members playing in shaping the direction of a project when they're not necessarily founders themselves? They can offer unique perspectives, but how do you balance their input with the founders' vision?

It's not for everyone, to be clear. We still have a admissions process where candidates need to demonstrate thoughtfulness, vision, intelligence, and other positive-sum character traits. But we don't discriminate by role as many can be successful here: - Founders can lock in to find PMF. - Creators have an aesthetic solarpunk campus to integrate into videos. - Operators can cowork easily with 24/7 facilities and a cafe open until midnight. - Athletes and yogis have ample space and resources with which to train and play sports. - Investors can find promising builders. - Event organizers can host workshops, classes, and more. So self-improvers of all stripes welcome, but they will still need to meet our bar 👍
