Hello world, the last 10 days I had no internet, could not talk anyone, no reading, and was completely offline
I was in rural Romania meditating every day for ten hours, from 4:30am until 9pm. I finally took a 10 day Vipassana course. It was absolutely not fun, but immensely meaningful
- It took me 3 full days of ten hour meditations to finally calm my brain and be able to consistently see my thoughts, on day 2 i was like wow i’m insane
- I didn't miss my phone as much as I thought I would. I more missed my friends and family and thought of my phone as a tool to message them
- Nothing is that deep, including this post, my social presence, blah blah
The secret to peace and happiness is understanding life is full of volatility and not reacting to it. I've read a lot of spiritual books and seen workshops and logically understood it.. but Vipassana helped me truly understand on an experiential body level. This was a gift and I hope one day you can take 10 days and gift it to yourself

The future is changing fast with AI.. how does one keep up?
Just 16 hours ago, ChatGPT's o1 image gen went live and it's why you see Ghibli all over your timeline
My first vibe coding sesh was 40 days ago in February and things have improved so much since. The time to train these models get shorter. There's also more specific use case llms popping up. Imagine in another 30 days, let alone 6 months or a year?
Making apps, games, websites, images, memes, infographics, campaign concepts will simply become faster, easier, and more accessible
What's going to truly matter?
- Taste
- Distribution
Creatives will win
Creatives with an audience, their own distribution channels, or access to distribution networks will win even more 1 reply
