my fav tools to build software faster
→ @cursor_ai - ai code editor that actually understands your codebase
→ @claude_code - wanna go even faster? even need to see the code?
→ @linear - task management that you actually love to use
→ @sentry - catch every bug
→ @tembo - automate coding agents to do routine work

Founders supporting, cheering on, and propping up other founders makes my heart happy. Such a powerful force.
You know it’s real when they genuinely celebrate the wins with you (instead of wondering, “why not me?”), sit with you in the lows, and keep you humble when you start getting too big for your britches.

David Green is the real deal. Not b/c of the value he's created thru Hobby Lobby (tho $8B in revenue this year is no joke), but because of how he has faithful led his family and given away his wealth for decades. Grateful to get to hear some of his story this morning. #inspired

Mike Rowe: “It feels like somebody … shot the First Amendment.”
“I think something extraordinary is going to happen in the days and weeks ahead.”
“Something that never comes through on those videos—you see a guy in a tent … you see somebody on the other side, and you see the very thing the country was built on.”
“Debate, disagreement, and exchange of ideas.”
“[Charlie Kirk] went into the lion’s den. He was brave.”
“I wonder if he was fearless. I wonder if he was scared. I wonder if he just did it anyway.”

If you want something new, you have to stop doing something old. - Peter F. Drucker
Too many cling to what’s comfortable, even at the risk of killing momentum. You can’t innovate while hoarding outdated habits, processes, or beliefs that once worked but now hold you hostage. If you’re serious about building something new, you must have the courage to cut away the old, no matter how familiar or safe it feels. Comfort is the enemy of progress.
