I'm immensely enjoying dreaming and building agentic apps on Dreamer. Sign up on dreamer.com and let me know what you're cooking!
Jobs called computers "bicycles for the mind" -- tools we could shape to our will.
But they never were. Until now.
Every morning an agent preps me for my day -- calendar, news, last 24hrs of Slack -- in a personal podcast. I made it by asking. Same for hundreds of other things.
Launching @dreamer in beta today.
That 🧠 bicycle, finally.

It's time to focus. @wabi build me a Pomodoro app with Wes Anderson movie backgrounds. Ask me about how I used the time when the timer goes off and show me stats over time.
A great thread - "Don’t burn time and capital trying to make fetch happen. If you can’t start selling design mockups of your next few months of roadmap, cut bait on the plan attack and keep looking."
Impatiently excited about this! stevejobsarchive.com/book

Nurturing our inner child is good for finding hope and innovation. Being around kids also helps!
The more we're around something, the more we get used to it. When you think younger, you unlock the potential for innovation. 🎥 @TEDTalks

Three subscriptions that I feel I'm getting 10x more value than what I pay: @benthompson's @stratechery, @Spotify, and @MasterClass. Much ❤️ to their teams.

I'd rather take risks and try to reach global maxima than stick to the status quo and its local maxima.
We miss out on opportunities when we only ask what could go wrong. It's also worth asking what could go right.
Change carries risk: we might fail. But sticking to the status quo also brings risk: we might fail to grow.
It's better to test and learn than to never test at all.

As always, great advice from @tfadell. I wish I'd learned about the importance of timing before founding my startup.

A brilliant post by @RogerLMartin on on evaluating the risks in sticking to the status quo or making new, bold choices. link.medium.com/QBtmYzocBwb

No matter how high you climb or how much you earn, if you aren't proud of how you got there, you haven't succeeded.
Status is a reward for the result. Character is revealed by the process.
The most meaningful accomplishments lie on the path that aligns with your principles.
My quality of sleep improved after watching @sleepdiplomat's Masterclass and reading his book Why We Sleep. Thank you!
The great @sleepdiplomat deserves a huge thank you. He started talking about the importance of sleep 5-6 years ago when it was surprising & counter to what most were doing. Today we all know that sleep is the foundation of mental and physical health & performance. THANK YOU MATT!
