Took the day off to hang out with my son and nieces. I don’t know if there’s anything better than that.

I find it unnatural to cast any thought I have. And I end up swinging to the other end of the spectrum and only casting fully polished thoughts. I need help finding more of a balance to post more.

Anyone use any AI tools as parents that they find helpful (aside from just GPT/Claude/DeepSeek)?

Today was just one of those days. Son woke up early and was in a mood. My wife and I are exhausted. But he’s ending the day with 4 teeth so hopefully tomorrow is much better!

Been exploring the “Family Tech” category a lot more recently. Really curious what everyone’s favorite apps are for families. My wife and I were heavy users of Huckleberry to track things, but now it feels like we’re in more of a groove with what we used to use Huckleberry for. Curious if there’s something that’s a better fit for us now.

No crypto superbowl ads. Does that mean the bull market is over or has it not yet started?

Been seeing a lot of notifications of people posting on here for the first time in a while. Is the recent news around Coinbase wallet and Snapchain bringing people back or is it something else?

How do you help your children develop taste? IMO this has always been important, but even more so now in an age of AI.

The first half of my paternity leave was marked by a lot of middle of the night wakings and feedings. It meant I was on here a lot. The second half of my paternity leave (spaced 4 months apart), was decidedly not that. I slept well and was not on any social media at all. It was quite nice.

For the last 6 weeks, I've been completely offline enjoying the end of my paternity leave. Just family time, good food, and some books. It was a really nice reset. But I'm excited to be back building and investing again. If you're a founder raising money at the pre-seed or seed stage, DM me!

Popular product wisdom: Build a vaccine, not a vitamin. Crypto is a vitamin in the US. It’s a vaccine in the developing world.

What are people’s thoughts on sleep training and the different methodologies? I’m trying to build my own perspective. For context, I have a 3.5 month old son. Until 2 weeks ago, when he got a stuffy nose, he got to the point that he slept 7 to 8 hours straight at night. Now between the stuffy nose and some leaps and regressions, he’ll vary between 3.5 hours and 7 hours before waking up. He doesn’t cry when he wakes up, and instead rolls around for 10 to 20 min before kicking the crib to wake me up. Trying to figure out the best approach to help him sleep through the night. And we have a solid go to bed routine in place.

Posted this on Twitter, but holds true on FC as well. My son was born 3 months ago. Since then I’ve posted very little. My followers have also increased by 20%. Apparently people like it when I talk less. Or at least bots do.

What's a good Uniswap UI for Base Sepolia? https://testnet.base.dapdap.net/uniswap/swap doesn't seem to be working for swaps at the moment.

create.party.app was “zig when others zag” move in the market. Everything has been focused on memecoins and prediction markets. So it was really fun for us to bring back NFT collections with rarities and see what people create and do. And I’m biased but the mint from the @partydao team is pretty amazing. Check it out if you haven’t already! https://create.party.app/mint/base/0x0933e8739a2fd1a99723d7acaf0b527c49920ee4
