My 4yo just suddenly walked in on me using the restroom to let me know that mom is her best friend (not me) and that I look like a “scary pig”… Do I look like a scary pig?

Never forget living in NYC, paying myself almost nothing from our seed round, baby on the way. betting everything on our first app Huddle. Super stressful, but honestly, one of the best times of my life.
Everyone loves the idea of being a founder until you’re 1 year in, no traction, broke, and your family is asking when you’ll get a “real” job.

Going to LAN parties in the late 90s and early 2000s taught me almost everything good about life and the internet

It's amazing what one day of no meetings and uninterrupted work can do for your mental health.

My 5 yo daughter and I negotiated her first weekly allowance today. She asked for “ten, three times” and we settled on “one paper dollar”. I think I won

The thing about AI that bums me out the most is the gutting effect it will have on dinner parties. Shared human aspirations from artists, directors, and writers thinking critically, navigating and sharing being vulnerable during dinners and over drinks will be a thing of the past. Don’t get me wrong I’m excited, just bummed the vulnerabilities will all happen in a white chat box and become digital dust.
