What's your AI adoption level? (according to Steve Yegge)




Perplexity Computer replaced $225K/yr in marketing tools in a single weekend. We built an AI marketing agent that scans hourly, manages budgets, detects fatigue, and coordinates several campaigns end to end. In one test run, it made 224 micro-optimizations to our ad stack.






We have more inbound demand for Software Factory than we can manage. We're looking for someone to own that, and to drive targeted outbound. You'll onboard customers, land initial deals, and expand them into seven-figure relationships. You: * Are early in your career and hungry * Can recognize patterns and are obsessed with process * Have grit and are a self-starter. Success in enterprise sales is often about persistence and genuine curiosity about your customers and their challenges. Early startups are hard * Thrive in ambiguity and with autonomy * Want to go all-in with an incredibly talented team * Have evidence of exceptional ability This isn't a traditional AE seat. We want missionaries, not mercenaries. Come build with us...


Most people take melatonin right before bed. That might be one of the worst times to take it. Melatonin isn't a sedative, it's a chronobiotic. It doesn't knock you out. It signals to your circadian clock that it's dark. And the effect it has on your sleep timing depends entirely on WHEN you take it. There's a concept called the Phase Response Curve. It shows that melatonin taken ~3 hours before your usual bedtime produces the largest phase advance, meaning it shifts your internal clock earlier, so you fall asleep sooner and wake up easier. But take it AT bedtime? You can actually push your clock in the wrong direction. That's a phase delay. You end up falling asleep later over time, not earlier. The sweet spot sits just before dim light melatonin onset, the point when your brain would naturally start releasing melatonin. For most people, that's roughly 3 hours before habitual bedtime. Timing > dose. Lewy et al. (1998), Burgess et al. (2010), and Challet et al., J Pineal Res (2024).
