A new edition of Common Corpus is out! We're exploring the potential of menstrual blood as a diagnostic tool, how the X chromosome shapes your health, the link between fibroids and heart disease, what every woman needs to know about breast health, and much more.

Gen Z men hold the most traditional views on gender roles of any generation, including Boomers. Not Gen X. Not Millennials. Gen Z. New data from Kings College London and IPSOS Mori.

@PierreDeWulf It's totally worth it. We did one this last year. You'll pull your hair out because you are sick of choosing door stops and then 1 will arrive 6 months late and broken and you'll pull your hair out again. But still worth it.

We just got the first architect proposals and floor plans. I know there's going to be huge delay I know it's going to be over budget I know we'll have to fight with municipality to get the permit I know it's going to be hell But damn do I want to do it "We chose to not because they are easy, but because they are hard." - anyone who did home renovation

Love to see someone using Dispatch.

The inaugural edition of Common Corpus is officially out! We’re deconstructing women’s health and building a better "body" of information, to help women better navigate their health, at any stage of life. Read No. 1 here: commoncorpus.com/p/common-corpu…

@morganlinton Yeah I get that. Can't you just run multiple openclaws on one Mac mini then?

Each OpenClaw has its own purpose, function, focus, etc. Definitely not maxing out cpu or mem, more like building a little agent team, and want each team member to have its own context, tools, etc. Most of my coding is done on an M4 MacBook Pro w/Codex and Claude, run by this weird old human named Morgan 😜

Okay, got my little scanner built and ready to go as I add two more Mac Minis into my OpenClaw family. Decided to go 100% Rust with this one. Will share as open source once I've used it myself and made sure I'm happy with how it works...which I probably won't be, so it could take a few iterations until I release it. Doubling the OpenClaw fam this weekend, with security as my core focus 🔐🦞

@levelsio @srijanshetty This is the way.

@srijanshetty Oh great idea I will try this thanks

When I set up a new Hetzner VPS first thing I do install Tailscale and once I'm in via Tailscale lock down the firewall to only accept web traffic on HTTPS 443 for Cloudflare IPs and SSH 22 for Tailscale IP That way nobody can get in I know I keep repeating this but it should be basics of setting up a new VPS So basic IMHO it should be part of any VPS service to default install Tailscale and enable it so it's the only way to get in Why? A VPS server is just like your laptop or destop computer but now imagine if it's connected to the entire internet with 8 billion people that can access it and try hack it You want to only have it accessible to you And if you want to host a website on your VPS (like I do), you should only let Cloudflare access your VPS so it can stand in front and block any hack attempts Never expose a VPS to the world wide web which realistically is the world WILD web

@awilkinson Kind of surprised it took 5k worth of credits, how many rebuilds? 😆

For $5,000 worth of Claude Code credits, I vibe coded something that replaces tens of thousands of dollars of psychological evaluations. Let me explain... Last month, my girlfriend and I sat in our den with our jaws on the floor… We were in front of my laptop, taking turns reading a report out loud, line by line. The document read like a CIA dossier—incisively breaking down each of our repeated fights and nailing our relationship dynamics. We had to laugh. We couldn’t believe it. A few days earlier, I’d asked ChatGPT a simple but loaded question: “What information would you need in order to become the ultimate personalized relationship coach?” It replied with a long list of personality tests—the same ones psychologists use to evaluate mental health, personality, and relationship satisfaction. The tests were all available online, but scattered across annoying PDFs and awkward, old-school forms. For someone with ADHD, like me, the idea of doing them one by one was pure torture. I just wanted to pound through them as one big test. So I asked Claude Code to build a simple app that combined them. I listed all the tests I wanted and asked it to build a web app that would. I’d done some vibe coding last year with tools like Replit and Lovable, but nothing prepared me for how good Claude Code has become. Within a few hours, I had a beautiful web app that combined all of these tests into one. When I say beautiful, I mean it looked like I employed a $50,000-a-month payroll of talented designers and engineers who’d spent two months working on it. Except I didn’t have a $50,000-a-month payroll. I’d paid Claude around $500 in AI credits — and what would normally take months had taken hours. Crazier yet, I’d just talked to it like it was a human employee. Once a beta version was ready, we completed our tests and exported our results into ChatGPT—no names, no context—and asked: “Based on this couple’s psychological test results, tell me as much as you can about their relationship.” That’s how we ended up in our kitchen, in shock, as ChatGPT broke down our relationship patterns with eerie precision. How my ADHD makes me want quick resolution, while Zoe needs to talk things through. How her high openness craves novelty, while I’m a stick-in-the-mud who craves routine. How my avoidance causes me to pull away and shut down when I’m stressed. It felt like a report written by a world-class therapist who’d spent dozens of multi-hour sessions carefully dissecting our dynamic and suggesting remedies. It told us where we were most compatible, and where we’d struggle if we didn’t put in the work. It even wrote personal deep dives on each of us, our personalities, and our individual gifts and challenges. And it knew all of this from 45 minutes of multiple-choice questions. I started thinking about friends who’d never been to therapy, or couldn’t afford anything like this, and how much it could help them. That’s when I realized this was a business. Something that would solve a valuable problem for a lot of people. So I got to work. For the last month, I’ve been jolting out of bed at 5:30 a.m., too excited to sleep, obsessively building this product. And today, I’m excited to launch Deep Personality. I think it’s one of the most comprehensive mental-health screening tools on the internet. It’s not a replacement for professional help, but a roadmap to it. Most people stumble blindly into a random therapist or doctor’s office without knowing what type of treatment they are even trained in or its efficacy for their specific problems. Deep Personality will screen you across 30+ mental health conditions and provide you with a detailed roadmap of how to get the help you need. In under an hour, it gives you a high-signal snapshot of your mental health across dozens of dimensions: Big Five Personality The gold standard for understanding why you do what you do. Attachment Styles The hidden patterns behind pushing people away, clinging too tightly, or choosing unavailable partners. Anxiety & Depression Screens for what you might be dismissing as “just stress.” Relationship Satisfaction Measures the real health of your relationship — often surfacing problems you’ve been avoiding. Sensory Processing Why crowded rooms drain you — or why you need things just so to focus. Neurodivergence Flags potential ADHD and autism-spectrum traits that often go undiagnosed into adulthood. Trauma Maps early experiences shaping your triggers and stress responses. Values & Career Fit Shows what actually motivates you, and why some work quietly drains your soul. You can do this individually, or compare yourself to anyone in your life. This is where it gets really interesting… Have your partner, coworker, friend, or family member take the assessment, upload their profile, and wait while the app analyzes your personalities and how they interact with one another. For romantic relationships, it analyzes attachment compatibility, conflict styles, emotional regulation, and values alignment — telling you exactly where you’ll clash and what to do about it. For work relationships, it focuses on communication, motivation, and how you’ll collaborate — or blow up under pressure. For friendships, it looks at shared values, social energy, and the dynamics that help relationships thrive (or quietly fade). For Zoe and me, having our relationship laid out with this kind of clarity — patterns we’d felt but never articulated — was deeply meaningful. Once you complete the assessment, you get a 50+ page deep dive on your personality. It felt like finally getting the owner’s manual for myself. You also get a custom AI prompt pre-loaded with your psychological data. Drop it into ChatGPT, Claude, or any AI assistant — and you have a therapist who already knows your attachment style, anxiety patterns, values, trauma history, and emotional regulation tendencies. No more spending six therapy sessions explaining who you are. The AI already gets it. And if you’re in therapy, or going to start with a new therapist, you can also export a clinical PDF designed for practitioners—raw scores, thresholds, severity flags, discussion points, and citations. Or… it can help you attract your perfect romantic partner. This one’s just fun. Deep Personality can generate dating bios based on your actual personality data — tailored to Hinge, Bumble, or Tinder — in tones like witty, sincere, adventurous, or intellectual. The AI turns what makes you unique into something that attracts compatible people. Once it knows you, it helps you get the help you need. Based on your results, it recommends books, podcasts, and treatment options backed by peer-reviewed research. The full assessment covers 30+ psychological screens and 300+ questions, and it costs a fraction of a single therapy session (free for the basic analysis, $19 for the full report, $29 for a couples comparison). It’s really crazy and I think it's going to help a lot of people. Who is this for? • High achievers who want to understand their edge • People who feel stuck and don’t know why • Curious minds who want real data • Pattern repeaters, same story — different chapter • Anyone who wants better relationships I’d love it if you’d try it and send me your thoughts! 👉 Click here to check it out: deeppersonality.app

@nikitabier Touch everything

What’s the worst advice you can give to someone going to CES for the first time?

@realEstateTrent Had the same problem. Sea-bands worked super well for our daughter (despite my scepticism). Still feels nauseous but greatly reduced it. GL!

OK, so today we realized that our daughter throws up during long car rides. Who can relate, and what do you do?

@elonmusk Why such linear growth in size? No one going 2X, 4X, 10X, the size of largest.

@awilkinson Also means they weren't REALLY in it for the equity, it just shares upside and keeps them engaged.

Here’s a big list of things that don’t seem to work, based on the last 20 years of running Tiny: • Giving an advisor or advisory board free equity to advise a CEO without putting any real skin in the game and investing their own money (they usually go “thanks for the free equity” and occasionally respond to emails) • Variable price/cost plus contracts (going over budget = vendor makes more money - natural incentive to go over budget) • Synergy between two entities, unless they are almost 100% identical and it happens naturally between the two management teams with a clear profit incentive (even then, rarely works) • Hiring people with traditional finance backgrounds—especially big corporate accounting—as opco CFOs (I see this a ton - first time entrepreneurs in small businesses hire a bean counter when they need somebody who is willing to roll up their sleeves and operate the business alongside them with a financial lens) • Hiring outside management/compensation/etc consultants (they have no alignment and get paid regardless of the outcome / often incentivized to tell you to change everything so they sound smart / they can’t deliver hard news to management because they serve them / “consulting is the art of picking your pocket watch to tell you the time”) • Fractional CFO/finance people vs. in-house finance (you’d almost always pay the same amount just in-housing, except you get 1/20th of their time and attention and they aren’t aligned with you) • Hiring a big company person to run a small or medium company (no scrappiness, used to a big cushy org full of support - usually don’t know how to hire, how to do HR, how to incentivize, how to run an actual org, think TOO big) • Hiring a CEO from a business with X business model (for example, ads) and expecting them to execute Y business model (for example, recurring membership revenue) in your business (people typically keep executing the strategy they know and love/are comfortable with - “to a person with hammer, everything looks like a nail”) • Expecting a business to disrupt itself or incubate its own “labs” projects (these are usually expensive boondoggles and the innovator’s dilemma typically kicks in “never expect someone to understand something that their paycheck depends on them not understanding”) • Expecting a CEO to issue dividends to head office vs. horde cash when their incentives don’t align with dividend receiving shareholders (CEOs will often press to keep as much cash on the balance sheet as possible, unless dividends benefit them as well - you essentially incentivize them to create silly R&D projects or at least project the need for massive cash investment)

@spawn @reply @jsnnsa @thestonechat @arthompson @dylanboychuk @clarrrentt @baileyrmoses @jaivin What's the most useful thing someone has built with Spawn so far?

@awilkinson Sounds like a @davefontenot party to me

The amount of ambition in San Francisco is hilarious and amazing. Last night, Chris and I went to a random house party. I ask the first guy I talk to what he's working on: "I'm building a massive multi-player virtual reality world." "Wow, that's awesome. What's the end game?" "I want it to get so big, and to require so much power, that we need to build a Dyson sphere around the sun to capture enough electricity"

@bobmuckle Congrats Bob! Ice or no ice? :)

My retirement gift from Capilano U was capped at $500. I requested, and received, a $500 bottle of scotch of my choosing. (Technically, the university isn’t allowed to gift me alcohol, but they could give me a pre-paid Visa, so it worked out).
