@L3W1SO AI has done that for me, generally.

Claude Code is actually so good that it has put me in paralysis. So many ideas, so hard to focus on one...

@IAmCaseStephens Crossing the Pressure Line. Was so moved that I messaged the author thanking her.

Have you ever read a book that made you cry? I’ve listened to songs that have made me cry. I’ve watched movies that have made me cry. But I’ve NEVER once read a book that made me cry. Name a book in the comments that brought you to tears.

My mom passed away this evening after battling dementia. A short tribute to her and pictures from a life well lived. @eyedar/portraits-of-the-life-of-dr-sevin-aydar-1939-2023-48ffee431bdc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@eyedar/portra…

@ChrisDMacro Napster

Doing some research What was the most significant event of the early 2000/late 90’s that changed the world? - 9/11 - dot com bubble - LTCM - Afghanistan war - Iraq invasion - Russian default - launch of the Euro - hanging chad - Friends ending Something else that caused this?

@realnursehadley @NoahBallard How anybody rejected you is ridiculous. Shows you how myopic people can be and how there is opportunity in being contrarian. You go get ‘em Hadley. I will buy anything you write & your book will be recommended to any of my friends who are losing parents for the rest of my life.

Today, I want to thank my literary agent @NoahBallard When I was querying, I received rejections so harsh that I almost gave up. Then I found Noah and he wholeheartedly supported me from day one. I am so proud to say that WE made the NYT Bestseller Lists for one month straight!

@livevitaeuk Agreed. Unfortunately people’s attention span cause them to only look at headlines as blanket statements.

@eyedar Nutrition science should be used to think not use as blanket statements. I am sure there’s conflict in your tap water to drink the “8 cups per day” recommendation so it could be fluoridated 😆😆

Post workout rehydration? Water? How about milk 🥛 “The results of the present study suggest that milk can be an effective post-exercise rehydration drink and can be considered for use after exercise by everyone except those individuals who have lactose intolerance” cambridge.org/core/journals/…

@fitat45plus “This work was supported by a grant from the Milk Development Council.” Yeah, I think I’ll stick with water.

But, but ... Gatorade has electrolytes ...

@GordonJohnson19 Has nothing to do with running itself. You lost weight because you disrupted your body’s metabolic homeostasis. Adding running is one of an endless number of things you could have done.

For anyone looking to lose weight I offer the following advice: I recently added running a mile a day down my street to lifting weights; I was unable to drop ANY pounds for the past 6 months; in two weeks I’ve lost 10lbs. 🏃🏾‍♂️works!

I’m just sharing one interesting data point that wasn’t even possible two months ago. What a time to be alive!

Take it however you want. The left will say “see! unfettered access to all guns is not what was intended!” The right will say “tech is biased against the 2nd amendment” I’m not here to convince anybody. If you want to stay in your tribal corners, that’s your choice.

6-yr old shoots their 1st grade teacher in VA yesterday. Using the Historical Figures app, I shared the WaPo story about this tragedy with an AI simulation of George Washington to get his take. Here is what he said.

@self_beware Absolutely brilliant thread. You’ve earned yourself a follower!

@m2jr @wescimm My initial thought was you as well, but since I'm trying to find PMF there must be a #1 target customer I'm building this for, so I would want to spend as much time as possible with that customer so that I can really find PMF.

@wescimm Wes - Thanks for your kind words. I hope the founders I've worked with feel I have met that standard. And tomorrow is a chance to do better.

Hey Founders - if you found yourself in a zero-to-one startup struggling to get product-market fit, and you could get the undivided attention and advice from anyone you choose, who would you pick and why?

@DanVonderheide @SaidTheSky I'll warn you: I'm a bit of a sap. 😇

@eyedar @SaidTheSky I'll give that a spin! Always looking for new stuff.

How is it possible that I’m in the top 0.1% of listeners to @SaidTheSky this year according to Spotify???? Sentiment is **SUCH** a phenomenal album, it’s hard to believe my 2,126 minutes listened is so close to the top.
