Choose someone you can learn from, someone who invests in people, and someone whose judgment and character you respect. Pick the right boss early, and your career tends to compound much faster.

A great manager can accelerate your growth, advocate for you behind closed doors, and open doors you didn’t even know existed. A bad one can make even the best brand miserable. Companies shape your résumé. Bosses shape your trajectory.

Today I was asked with what advice I have to this years graduating class: Few people told me this when I was starting out, and even fewer stressed how much it matters: when choosing a job, the boss often matters more than the company.

The opposite of hustle culture isn't slowness — it takes real time to build a lasting brand. Everyone forgetting that...

If you lived in a world where everyone made the exact same salary, what would you choose to do for work?

One more from “News Items” (substack.news-items.com): “17. LRB: People are living longer than they used to. They are also having fewer children. The evidence of what this combination can do to a society is growing around the world, but some of the most striking stories come from Japan. For decades the Japanese health ministry has released an annual tally of citizens aged one hundred or over. This year the number of centenarians reached very nearly a hundred thousand. When the survey started in 1963, there were just 153. In 1981 there were a thousand; in 1998 ten thousand. Japan now produces more nappies for incontinent adults than for infants. There is a burgeoning industry for the cleaning and fumigating of apartments in which elderly Japanese citizens have died and been left undiscovered for weeks, months or years. Older people have far fewer younger people to take care of them or even to notice their non-existence. That neglect is a brute function of some simple maths. In 1950, Japanhad a Total Fertility Rate (TFR) of 4, which represents the average number of children a woman might expect to have in her lifetime. Continued over five generations, that would mean a ratio of 256 great-great-grandchildren to every sixteen great-great-grandparents – in other words, each hundred-year-old might have sixteen direct descendants competing to look after them. Today Japan’s TFR is approaching 1: one child per woman (or one per couple, half a child each). That pattern continued over five generations means that each solitary infant has as many as sixteen great-great-grandparents vying for his or her attention. Within a century the pyramid of human obligation has been turned on its head. (Source: lrb.co.uk)”

turns out you can convince trillion dollar companies to change while building Beeper On-Device, we needed more RAM than what Apple provided to securely show notifications thanks to the EU and DMA, we got it bumped from 15MB to 50MB globally (and even up to 250MB on higher end devices)

Love love this quote from @JamesClear newsletter yesterday: "The grass is only greener if you're obsessed. It's easy to talk yourself into a new opportunity because everyone else is excited about it or the upside seems high, but the energy that comes from hype is different than the energy you need to make something part of your daily lifestyle. It might be a good opportunity on paper, but if it isn't the type of thing you want to spend all day working on, then you probably won't stick with it. And if you won't stick with it, then it's not a good opportunity for you."
