Some thoughts on the yr gone by... a yr in VC Also, quoting one of my fav movies (any guesses?😃) "If there's any kind of magic in this world it must be in the attempt of understanding someone sharing something...the answer must be in the attempt.” link.medium.com/hRI5yrJmM8

two geophysics girls bonding over @GoogleDeepMind’s excellent hats at @agihouse_org. something’s cooking, stay tuned! @DynamicWebPaige 🫶

imagine you read a book cover to cover not add it to notebookLM to generate a podcast, not ask claude for a summary, not ask gemini for an infographic, not post notes in obsidian and build a second brain just read it, keep it aside and walk away…the horror!

surprised yet not so much that almost every second reply to this post is writing… ranging anywhere from pickup lines to research papers.

incredible day to be at @agihouse_org today. so did not expect Sergey Brin to show up! This community is mad! 💛

Watch me control my computer with just my voice. This is the future of operating systems. No hands. GPT-Realtime 2.0 is very, very underrated. Demo:

Just tried Hallmark and what I absolutely love is the step up from tools like Refero or Mobbin MCP into an opinionated take that gives my design system judgement on AI slop. I don't want to copy a website, I want to get inspired by someone else's design, I want to make it my own, and I want for once to not look at another neon design!!!!

for the love of God pls pls pls do not write sentences like “this is the real xyz”, “this is where it gets interesting…”

@lennysan So stoked for this! 🔥

The Lenny and Friends Summit returns on Thursday, September 10, in San Francisco

@trq212 @hnshah As a corollary I maintain a state file on all my projects - and at the end of the day my daily rundown skill updates each projects state file with all I learnt about it. Within 2 weeks it’s a second brain.

okay this is going kinda viral and tbh my original text was kind of messy, so here's a second pass with the help of Claude: -- Implement . As you work maintain a running implementation-notes.html file that captures anything I should know about how the implementation diverges from or interprets the spec, including: - Design decisions: choices you made where the spec was ambiguous - Deviations: places where you intentionally departed from the spec, and why - Tradeoffs: alternatives you considered and why you picked what you did - Open questions: anything you'd want me to confirm or revise

a prompt I've been using a lot recently: implement <SPEC> and while you do, keep a running implementation-notes.html file (or markdown) with decisions you had to make weren't in the spec, things you had to change, tradeoffs you had to make or anything else I should know

@dr_alphalyrae @WorldMeetsAqeel this tweet is transactional, but hey 👋

but seriously has anyone in the bay area figured out how to make net new, non-transactional friendships as an adult?

6/ That's the list this week. Taste is a muscle, and most of mine got built paying attention to other people's. So what had it for you this week? I'm collecting, genuinely. 🧡

5/ @trq212 's take on html being the new markdown. I think he said what everyone was afraid to say, or felt that they were too cool to say this and somehow html will take away their coolness quotient... the observation aside, I loved the visual clarity of this post x.com/trq212/status/…

1/ A thought that keeps circling back to me: building got cheap, and the whole job quietly became knowing what's worth building at all. Taste - and you can't prompt your way out of it. So I started keeping a small list — every week, the things I ran into that just... had it. Made by someone who clearly, almost stubbornly, cared. This week 🧵

found my old article on day 1 of covid lockdown and went from hysterical laugh, to "oh what was she thinking" all in 10 seconds... @triyansha/lockdown-day-1-eb11a985a081" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@triyansha/loc…

There’s few things I religiously believe in than karma: do good things, and it’ll reverberate back sometime. Even though this has honestly led me to situations where I have been taken advantage of, I refuse to let this belief go. Always always optimize for the long term!

This is so thoughtfully created. I just saw a post today that Andre Karpathy had retweeted, which basically said how HTML files are so much better to read and interpret compared to markdown files, especially when you're trying to learn something. This product launch actually captures that in essence. I'm so excited to be sharing this across. Beautiful

AI is making you stupid. Today, we're introducing the all new Oboe, designed to make you smarter. Think about the last 10 answers you got from an LLM. How many of them do you actually remember? Probably none, because LLMs are not good teachers. But @oboelabs helps you learn the way humans are supposed to: through guided conversations, frequent checks for understanding, real-time adjustments, and multiple formats for all learning styles. Here's everything we're introducing today:
