Yusuf Halabi

last night’s reading room was so special. a cozy evening spent reading ‘attention & will’, discussing our thoughts, making new friends and drinking warm chai :’) it felt like all the best parts of being a student again we had the idea for this event a week ago and it all came together so smoothly. grateful to @jaesmail @nativestudio_ for inviting me to host with our sponsors, @vincent_yc_li for being a dream cohost, and @haroonisdreamin and @YusufHalabi for being such thoughtful, helpful production team.. can’t wait for more 🪄🤞❣️

@raphaelsalaja interesting

seeing a lot of bookmarking apps recently. none really solve the main issue, which is becoming an invisible layer of your daily browsing. luckily ive been building something that solves this. it already works with arena, cosmos, instagram, x (twitter), youtube, reddit, threads and tik tok. and its completely replaced all apps for me. everything synced, local, with no interruptions and soon open source. if you’re interested let me know.

@razadots underrated

sf is so full of thinkers. walked through the tenderloin and every other person was just standing there mid thought. completely arrested by the weight of it all.

ahhhh me and the homies @YusufHalabi and @jaesmail running our first reading room in SF signup at link below

@jaesmail oh yessir

Kicking off Reading Rooms next week. Each session, we'll pick an essay or book chapter, spend 20-30 minutes reading over a cup of chai, and then discuss alongside other technologists and friends who care about the implications of their work. First SF session will be hosted on Monday with @YusufHalabi and @haroonisdreamin. Chicago will be announced very soon. Shoot me a DM if you wanna host ~bi-weekly in your city!

@shayanshafii @gentlycarved mogged by Michigan Daily

Normally don't respond to stuff but this one feels worth my time. A few things: 1) I'm 30 2) I was the resident music critic for the Michigan Daily from 2015-18, where I actually wrote a national award winning essay on Kanye's music catalog as it pertains to various schools of architecture <michigandaily.com/arts/music/yee…> 3) I also wrote the official review for The Life of Pablo <michigandaily.com/arts/music/lif…> 4) I spent a day with Lil Yachty and wrote a profile on him in 2016 before he had really crossed over <michigandaily.com/arts/music/lil…> 5) Lastly, I also had my own music blog called Lettermans from 2018-2024, which was recognized by Complex Magazine and Pigeons and Planes. It was here that I published Lil B's first and most comprehensive interview in years, alongside folks like Benjamin Edgar and Egon Alapatt. There was probably a ~10 year stretch of my life where folks recognized me more for my music and culture work than for my work in tech. Very funny how a job and a few tech twitter jokes can change that. You could have figured this out by Googling me but I won't hold that against you. Enjoy the likes.

It’s really funny to me when tech compares anything to music, culture etc. like you really don’t even know what you’re saying. you’re saying nothing. also you’re like 19 what do you even know about kanye west

@LunaBitar need Austin at Alif jumaah

Yesterday I met a guy who grew 3 meme pages from 100 → 5M followers. I asked how to market my Muslim prayer app. He said: “Do street interviews.” Unfortunately the streets of San Francisco are empty. So this is my last resort.

@adelwu_ yes

i am insanely excited to host this event if you've been wanting to try sohn but can't wait in their long lines, i'm partnering with them to host a late night jazzy coworking session! there will be banana oat matcha/hojicha, tea, coffee, pastries, popcorn chicken, AND outlets for every seat 🤩 this will be a pretty intimate event since space is limited, but if it's popular we'll do it again :) comment if you want to come & i'll dm the link! @reductoai @brickywhat @JaySahnan @browserbase
