My open claw is now my personal FourSquare back when it was useful and cool (RIP 4sq for those who remember)
Now I just say “I’m at ___” in my travel telegram channel and it tells me where I am and what to order and what’s good
Pretty sure we should make a moltbook for 4sq soon

Wrote up about my personal journey from AI skeptic to someone who finds a lot of value in it daily. My goal is to share a more measured approach to finding value in AI rather than the typical overly dramatic, hyped bait out there. mitchellh.com/writing/my-ai-…

This is such an important piece on cancer. The Ezra team helped Sid get access to very tailored MRI imaging, so I’ve seen his team’s dedication firsthand.
I believe Sid’s approach will become a blueprint on how to tackle cancer at an n-of-1 level.

Going Founder Mode On Cancer centuryofbio.com/p/sid Sid Sijbrandij is a generational founder. He founded and led GitLab, one of the largest remote companies in the world, from idea-stage startup to NASDAQ-listed software giant. But in 2022, a six centimeter mass growing from his upper spine threatened to end all of that. He had cancer. What happened next is nothing short of remarkable. Sid went founder mode on his care journey. In the years since, he's deployed cutting-edge genomics to profile his disease. Based on this data, he's developed a growing armamentarium of personalized therapies. As a result, his disease is now undetectable. A simplistic version of this story could be, “Wow! A brilliant billionaire seemingly cured his cancer. Good for him!” But as I’ve gotten to know Sid, it’s become abundantly clear to me that there is more to the story than that. In an in-depth profile for The Century of Biology, I explore Sid's journey and what this might mean for the future of cancer care.

new project: cleo (kindle + llm) 📚
cleo is an ios app that pairs whatever book you're reading on kindle with an llm (o3) — ask questions, get recaps/summaries, or listen/discuss (think audiobooks but interactive). the llm has context on exactly where you are + the book contents.
best part? no complex setup needed. just link your kindle account and that's it. it just works.
