imagine you have a family member who cares a lot about you and wants you to be your healthiest self
so they check in every day with questions like..
"did you make it to the gym today?"
"are you eating healthy today?"
"did you get enough sleep last night?"
not to be annoying.. but because they want to make sure you are taking care of yourself.
this family member wouldn't stop there. they'd be the first person to help you with the healthcare system.
they would:
- send you the latest research relevant to your health
- make sure you have appointments lined up
- follow up with your doctor directly
they would make sure you are not falling between the cracks of our healthcare system.
inwardly, they are your accountability coach. outwardly they are your health advocate.
this is the vision i am building towards with BodyBuddy ๐ซถ.
there's like 1000 reasons BodyBuddy specifically may fail (in fact we are very UNLIKELY to succeed), but ai that proactively thinks about your health every single day is an inevitability.

Remember when you built things because it was fun to try and didn't think about the business of it at all? No moats, no pitching, no unit economics questions, no worrying about cohortized retention. Just built it to see if you could.

I basically just wanted to make sure the hundreds of dollars I paid for that premium subscription wouldn't be a waste

Iโm furious about my cityโs politicians and how theyโve made my city into a national joke.
Tonight my dad had this shirt on today and I remembered that this is my fucking city. I love San Francisco and Iโll never stop loving it.

"Merit is racist and the antithesis of fair."
- SF School Board lead, Alison Collins
I could not disagree more.
What better use of tax dollars is there than ensuring the brightest and hardest-working teens in SF get a top knotch education?
Replying to @stbearman
At the heart of these debates is the question of what constitutes fair admissions criteria.
On Oct. 13, 2020, Commissioner Alison Collins said that merit is racist and the "antithesis of fair." (3/7)

"Find an audience" <- Wrong.
Can you imagine trying to 'find an audience' in real life? Walk around the streets until you find one?
You build an audience by doing useful or interesting things.
Start by finding a MARKET, and do useful things until an audience finds you.

Itโs clear that distributed work is here to stay, and we believe that brings an opportunity to redesign the way we work for the better. Starting today, Dropbox is becoming a Virtual First company. bit.ly/33Ti9I1

It has a linter, bundler, compiler, formatter, testing framework, dependency manager, and more. All of these make sense as a single system, they're all related.
