@dyett @OpenAI Go get it :)

Today, I’m closing my chapter at @OpenAI after three very meaningful years. I leave with deep gratitude for the opportunity to help scale the GTM organization. The timing feels right. I’m drawn back to the early stages of company building, and OpenAI is in a strong place—with GPT-5.5, Codex, and Denise Dresser's inspired leadership. I’m joining @ThriveCapital as an Operator in Residence. I’ve been fortunate to work at Thrive-backed companies over the past decade—first Stripe, then OpenAI—and have experienced firsthand their commitment to their companies. I’m excited to pay that forward to founders across the portfolio and stay close to building. To my OpenAI teammates: thank you. Special gratitude to @bradlightcap for taking a bet on me. And to the Thrive team—I can’t wait to get started.

@rtwlz love you

10% of AMC movie showings sell no tickets at all. I made a site that finds them. Go enjoy your private theater

May the fourth be with you

@matthewwmullin These are amazing, Matt. Is there somewhere that we can see the favorites?

NASA HAS RELEASED OVER 12,000 IMAGES OF THE ARTEMIS II MISSION. Unbelievable perspectives captured by the Crew! The aurora on the eclipse is incredible.

@GitMaxd @mattbergland @imjaredz Basically the new type of dev rel. I was a builder in residence at amp.

@ryancarson @mattbergland @imjaredz What’s the meaning, @ryancarson? How would you hire for this “Builder in Res”? Serious question- some of us are looking for inspiration 🍀

we’re gonna cook 😈 welcome @imjaredz

Want $2,000 of free advertising on X? You can sign up for a Premium Business account ($10,000/year) and you get a $12,000 credit on the new X Ads platform. If you're already allocating the $10,0000 marketing spend, this technically means you're getting the Premium Business account for free + $2,000 of free ads. Bonkers :)

@au6ust not talking a lot publicly about it right now :)

@ryancarson Have loved following your journey with ai tooling over the last year. Apologies if I’ve somehow missed this, but I’m so curious what you’re actually building. Have you ever shared publicly?

Switching our main customer-facing LLM to gpt-5.5

@vitobotta opus 4.6

@ryancarson Curious what you're switching from?

Beware: phishing campaign going around where a “journalist” says they want to interview you and asks you to book a calendar spot. Fake calendly link has a “log in with X” option. Stay safe!

Kyle for @github CEO!

@BenSyne We're building a divorce agent for Connecticut, so hopefully you don't need the product :)

@ryancarson can I become a customer?

@fkadev @sama Go dads!

@ryancarson @sama 😍 I’m happy to see dads here.

@sama ah, thanks :)

@ryancarson thats nice but i really like that you first list being a dad in your bio

@LadySoleil33 Fun to see it live

@ryancarson We see some of his artwork in Los Angeles sometimes on walls -

When we lived in Bath, we used to see Banksy's work all over Bristol, before he was mega famous. Fun to see this statue happen.

@sjivan Basically. A little bit Claude design

@ryancarson 100% Devin?

Just shipped a major new feature. Had the idea on Monday, shipped it today. 4.5 days from idea to prod. This easily would've been at least two 2-week sprints at my last startup - with a whole team (pm, designer, 2 devs). Still wild to experience it.

@deconstructis soooo fun :)

@ryancarson It sure makes SW dev a lot more fun, too!
