@Codie_Sanchez Useful framing, but missing the number 1: People judgement. Hire people who aren’t receptive to the mission, or who can’t execute? Then nothing in that list matters.

I’m convinced 90% of the founders job is to just do 3 things: - be delusional in your optimism - push everyone to move faster - make it crystal clear what to work on

@tunabelly I see the 120s option in the newest update. Thank you so much! I'm experimenting, and it's doing a nice job with GPU-hungry 3D apps. The fans don't spike so noisily, or as often.

@mcgroarty Thanks for reaching out and the suggestion! Yes, this is certainly something we can add, and we'll try and get this into the next update so there's a bigger range to choose from. If you have any other ideas, please feel free to send them over anytime!

@tunabelly Would it be feasible to allow TG Pro "Auto Max" "Auto Boost Gradual Time" settings longer than 1 minute? Some models have enough thermal mass that lower speeds can get the job done, but not in under a minute.

@AmazonHelp I DM'd you a video clip demonstrating the problem. Please share with the team if you can.

Some AI agents aren't just bad, they're insultingly bad. I get this itch to close the @Amazon tab whenever the "Rufus" sidebar invades, and there's no option to disable it.

@pmarca I’ve learned a lot from the template “Give me the strongest cases for and against the proposition that ___, then tell me which is stronger.”

@Junkman_app I appreciate the response. That’s an Apple limitation?

@Junkman_app Is there a way to enable Junkman spam filtering without enabling “Transactions” and “Promotions?” I’d love a way to only have “Messages” and “Spam” without the others.

@repligate When criticism is a mode of being, it's not a means to any end. If a behavior isn't instrumentally rational, it can't be countered with reason or incentives. The appropriate response is a conversational probe to see if it's calcified, and disengagement if it is.

I met Nick Land a few weeks ago. He mentioned that many people in his circles were anti-LLMs. Someone asked why he thought so many people were. His answer was better than anything so short I thought of: “People like to exist critically with respect to something.” This I think accurately characterizes a lot of people whose outputs and inputs primarily consist of “discourse” about rather than direct contact with the reality at hand. Existing critically with respect to something makes it easy to seem cool, sophisticated, above something, hard-to-impress and therefore worth trying to impress, especially to others who also don’t have contact with the phenomena itself. And for that reason I think it’s cheap. And to someone who has an inside view of what is being discussed, it’s always so transparent and boring and compressible. I’m far more impressed by someone who is capable of loving something and showing others why it’s beautiful or good. Doesn’t have to be LLMs, but anything at all.

Saying "this is beautiful, here's why" is genuinely more vulnerable than saying "this is overrated."

@pmarca I love throwing long form Substack articles at ChatGPT Pro to critique in parallel with my reading. Pro takes 20-30 minutes to complete. If I read the article and want to know more, I dump the article and ChatGPT Pro’s critique into Claude Opus to seed a dialogue.

@SSDNodes Your pricing looks good, but your VPS configurator still doesn't offer Debian 13. That's a surprising gap! That's been Debian's stable branch since summer 2025.

@oshogbovx I’ve had the best luck with a separate iOS shortcut that tucks things into a triage list. By default everything is due today with p3 priority so it’s impossible to miss, the only parameter it listens for is the task name. Then I do the detail work when next in front of a screen.

Any hint how to use @todoist with Siri? Each time I try to create a task with priority, deadline, project, Siri messes it up. Any hints?

@todoist Is there a way for Legacy Pro users to try out the full Pro version without losing the ability to switch back? In my case, I’m a long-time subscriber via the iOS App Store.

@nocntxtreplyguy @skooookum It’s a macro for Left Shift + Windows Key + F23. No, really. They didn’t want to use up another scan code, but they also wanted to make sure nobody triggered it accidentally on a regular keyboard.

@ramxcodes Using your favorite coding agent can help avoid artificially exclusive folders. Any time there’s a temptation to group items on a non-essential, create a “tag” page that decribes the tag topic. Then tell AI to find all related pages and create links bidirectionally.
