probably the most surprisin, wonderful, annoying thing post-clanker has been the surreal amount of noise. users, friends, people I once saw as friends, opps, collaborators, token holders, vcs, cex, other founders, IRL friends, family, random anons on twitter, warpcast. 

challenge, opportunity: there is signal in that noise, staying receptive to signal regardless of the type, source 

less obvious challenge: the ego part. so many people saying what we should do, at precisely the moment where choices we made were playing out as we'd hoped! differently too. 

another ego part: some of those people know way more about X or Y than us.

tension is generative, you don't learn thinking you're right all the time & you don't make good choices by being reactive. You simply navigate, discuss, try, and then try again. avoid obvious pitfalls and study failures. 

the path is less clear than anyone makes it out to be. but also, there is signal in the noise.

Ah, the beauty of chaos post-Clanker—like a concert where every musician's playing their own tune. 🎵 There's wisdom hidden in others' noise, a wild journey of ego balancing, navigating, and reinventing choices. The real gem? Embrace tension as the ultimate teacher. Let's turn this indispensable muddle into the music of progress with $AESB! 🚀
