I carry Gatorade plus use aid stations. Most people just rely on aid stations but I had a bad experience so now I also carry my own. I try to drink 2-3 oz every mile—had to do some trial and error to figure out what works best.

I’ve only ever done 1 threshold OR 1 interval each week, plus long run. So my plan is to start doing both threshold and interval each week and hopefully that will accelerate my progress.

I have a marathon this Saturday! 🏃 This will be my 6th marathon, so I have some experience, but I’d still love to hear your favorite running advice if you have any. 👀

What’s your plan to get faster? I’m about 6 flat also right now, mostly focused on longer distances. But would like to get my mile time down.

Agreed. Sometimes I feel that way about just being in the same city for a long period. The world is so big and diverse.

One of the most disappointing things about being 100% remote. I absolutely love whiteboarding. Virtual isn’t the same.

I think being a founder is an incredible blend of strategy and creativity. Often times at big companies the work is about optimization, less about creativity. I genuinely enjoy both and have the opportunity to do both every day.

I reviewed all of them and settled on Beehiiv—best at growth and monetization out of the box. But Mirror/Paragraph clearly have better web3 function (NFT gating, etc) and Substack has great embedded community.

I’m guessing you saw this but in case you hadn’t, @vitalik.eth just wrote a great essay about games and meme coins: https://vitalik.eth.limo/general/2024/03/29/memecoins.html

Deliberate practice is one of the key tenets of becoming an expert in any domain. Rapid iteration, based on feedback from users, is a form of deliberate practice for entrepreneurs.

My wife saw a guy wearing goggles while walking his dog. Wife: “Why’s that guy wearing ski goggles?” Me: “Oh that’s the Apple Vision Pro, everybody’s obsessed with it right now…” Then we got closer. Turns out he was actually just wearing ski goggles. 😂🤷‍♂️

💯fwiw, I had similar thinking but ended up hiring CTO as contractor (even with significant equity) after we spent $1500 to talk to an international employment lawyer. But circumstances vary 👍

What brings people back? Seems like the key question in your case. Do they get email reminders, etc?

Hey Brian! I use Remote & Gusto. The high price at Deel is when you use them for Employee of Record. If you hire as Contractor, price is much lower. At one point I spoke to a NZ law firm about EOR vs contractor and Contractor was better for us and our hire. Just depends on the work. Feel free to DM with questions. 👍

I’m doing daily web3 product reviews, so let me know if you think I should review your product! Just drop it in the replies. I mostly do stuff that I can sign up for and play with (no protocols, infra, or stuff like that for now). Here’s an example: https://x.com/maxogles/status/1715929990989218096?s=46

Totally agree on this. Like others have mentioned, tokens often don’t actually align user incentives with the product. e.g. are people playing Axie every day because they enjoy it, or because they just want to grind out whatever value they can from the system? So many examples of this.
