"Content engineer" may sound made up... but so did "social media manager" 15 years ago. @freeshreeda went from crafting tweets to building AI agents that write like her CEO—and discovered a role that's reshaping how we think about content creation. This is the story.
If i had started undergrad with the intention of starting Loyal….i never would have started Loyal. The random walk is (usually) necessary to build the foundational context for non-obvious + right ideas
Don't drop out of college to start or work for a startup. There will be other (and probably better) startup opportunities, but you can't get your college years back.
jordan peterson’s ’clean up your room’ became a huge joke but no one ever mentioned that his second step was to try to make the room beautiful, because that involves committing to something, putting yourself out there, and engaging with beauty on your own terms as an individual.
i fucking HATE wanting to decorate my room because i'm fearful i won't like how it turns out
every millennial is now paying apple $9.99/month for 2TB just to not delete their life.

I'm still recovering from a very tough go at life. Old apartment infested with dozens of large American cockroaches. Awful, gaslighting property management. Austin City Code officers involved. I finally take the L and move. New apartment AC was broken for the first 3 weeks (I…
Our air conditioner is on the fritz and I'm once again reminded that Lee Kuan Yew was one of the wisest leaders in history.

Can we please make more water? We have the technology to do mass scale desal and end Western water poverty forever. We don't have to fight over scraps. We don't have to dam up distant valleys. We don't have to suck the aquifers dry. We just need to end the ban on desalination.
As Californians continue to face cycles of drought, it is critical that we invest in our water storage infrastructure. I visited the San Luis Reservoir to learn about their earthquake retrofit project and how the reservoir delivers water to millions of families and farmers.
IMO willpower is an incoherent concept invented by smug people who think they have it in order to denigrate people who they think don't. It doesn't map onto any real truth about motivation that I know of — and as a result, saps agency and erodes our imagination. (More below.)
I earnestly believe there is no such thing as willpower, it is a collective delusion that recasts differences in how hard something is for different people as a kind of moral virtue
You can literally just talk to your kids about hard things, you don't need a license.
Respectfully, I disagree with the therapist on Fox News this morning who recommended that parents find a play therapist for young children traumatized by losing friends or family members in the recent tragic floods. There is not much evidence that play therapy is effective. I…

A fixation on TFR & pronatalism is a psy op, a supermeme.
good managers guide you great managers help you discover the path yourself
talking with @freeshreeda about trying something new and she said "i guess we could just start" and this made me happy We just try lots of things @mastra_ai
I’ve just received a ChatGPT-generated case against our current babysitter, with sections written from the perspective of each of the 4 children.
