Everything is new again. We get to reimagine all things software.

Linear CEO @karrisaarinen says throwing out SaaS entirely can send companies on a "long journey" back to the exact same workflows: "This idea of like, 'let's throw everything out, no SaaS at all'... I think that's an option. But then you start inventing stuff back from first principles, and you maybe end up in the same spot again." "Everyone's running their agent, and now they have 10 agents running. So then they put them on a Kanban board, which Linear has, and then it's like, 'Oh, now I invented agent orchestration.' Like, no, you invented the Kanban board, which has been around for like 30 years." "So, kudos to connecting those two topics. But some things don't need to be reinvented. Some things can still work. But if you just throw everything out, you kind of start from the beginning, and then I think it's a long journey to figure everything out again."

@quinnslcm I feel like it takes me longer to process and find things with the monochrome tint
Looks sick though
English
I think most things look better tinted
quinn@quinnslcm
Took away default colors on my new iPhone and made my apps tinted, made each home page dedicated to a specific category This is my ‘work’ one (WIP). I also have a finance one Each page has a widget at the top to anchor visually. Also am trying to switch to as many Apple native apps as I can (if going from Google Calendar to iOS Calendar)

@rachcorrine Yup, good for strength and cognition with no known adverse hormonal side effects

Started taking peptides about 2~3 weeks ago
Currently taking CJC-1295 no DAC + Ipamorelin & will potentially introduce BPC-157 in a couple weeks.
I’ve only begun feeling different as of yesterday & today.
- Dreaming like crazy
- Feel less sluggish in the more
- Feel more energetic upon waking (i’m usually a zombie when i wake up) even if I didn’t get my optimal sleep
I’ve been sick for the last 1~2 weeks therefor I haven’t been training, it will be interesting to see how it goes with recovery / energy levels with extreme training fatigue / load
I don’t really enjoy the enjoy the aspect of having to inject myself each night + not being able to eat a few hours prior (although that’s usually a good idea regardless)

@tjparker @omooretweets Amazon Pharmacy will be considered generational when it gets more adoption
Telehealth + medication delivery from the comfort of your home
You cooked
English
@omooretweets We went 0-300M revs paid, 300M-1B paid + B2B, and to many billions since w a broad mix of channels. Wouldn’t call it a generational startup, but will be a durable tens of billions p&l inside of Amazon..
English
In consumer, paid ads generally = lack of true product market fit
I have yet to see a generational startup with largely paid ad-driven growth…
andrew chen@andrewchen
lots of AI cos starting to experiment with paid marketing so here’s my take: Paid acquisition is a tax on your product's defensibility. the moment you can't out-spend the incumbents and competitors, you die. build channels that get cheaper as you grow or you're just renting your growth

Can’t wait for this!

@oasishealthapp I felt like Transparent Labs was legit, but never had the proof. Nice to see the confirmation.

Regular creatine intake linked to fewer irregular periods and may support reproductive health in women.
Data from 4,500+ women found that those meeting the daily creatine threshold (1g per day for a 170-pound woman) had 25% lower odds of irregular periods and significantly lower odds of poor birth outcomes.
The female body synthesizes less creatine than men and tends to consume 30-40% less through diet, despite needing it for:
- Hormone balance
- Egg maturation
- Cellular energy in reproductive tissue
- Brain health
Always check if its lab tested (4/5 creatine gummies tested were found to contain no actual creatine).
We track and share the latest test results on Oasis

Everyone knows what it’s like to scramble to get something done. Missing ingredients before people come over for dinner. Packing school lunches for the morning. Needing new headphones for tomorrow’s flight.
Teams across Amazon have been working to solve those problems, and today we're introducing 1-hour and 3-hour delivery options on over 90,000 products—everything from paper towels and cleaning supplies to electronics.
One-hour delivery is available in hundreds of cities and towns, and 3-hour delivery in over 2,000…with more coming. Should be a big help. aboutamazon.com/news/retail/am…

@nikitabier ~24 hrs I submit my build on a weekday. I've noticed it's only longer if it's on the weekend.

iOS developers: How long is App Review taking for everyone these days?
It is now taking longer to get our app approved than it is to build the actual features.
