I've been doing customer discovery interviews and I'm reminded that listening is one of the hardest skills to cultivate and nurture.. (This passage is from Rick Rubins book: The Creative Act.)

My one wish for the inauguration is that there is a gift bag under the seats of Bezos, Zuck, Elon etc, with a single, embroidered , padded knee pad Need to protect themselves when they are on bended knee, kissing the ring 🤷😆

"X" indiehackers and entrepreneurs have gotten extra insufferable. Ive learned to just nod my head when they start saying crazy things

this has been one of the most hectic first 8 days of the year I have ever experienced.

the best "feature as a product" right now is ScreenshotOne.. ripe for acquisition. I would value it at $5m today. could probably be worth $50m in 10 years.

The best investment you can make is education. California is the only place in the world to get world class education that is extremely affordable

Should we continue to encourage kids to go to college ? Or push them to take up a trade ? I believe in college. Learning how to learn, IMO, is a critical life skill. Being exposed to people of different backgrounds, makes yiu wiser Qualifier- it should be a school you can afford.

One of the great questions starting Jan 21 is how will Elon and Donald communicate? Trump is all phone. Nothing in writing. Elon isn't going to take 10+ calls a day. I wouldn't be surprised if more than half their communications are via posts on Truth Social and X Literally.
