The Network School - Days 36-40
Had a lecture by Ryan Johnson, founder of @liveculdesac âa fully walkable, car-free neighborhood built in Arizona.
Did you know Amsterdam wasnât always so walkable and bike-friendly? In the 70s, many of its streets were car-dominated and congested.
Through deliberate urban planning and prioritizing pedestrians and cyclists, Amsterdam transformed into one of the most sustainable, accessible cities in the world today.
I've lived in Barcelona for the past 8 years, where Iâve seen a similar approach.
Its grid-like design, influenced by architect Ildefons CerdĂ , creates open spaces and improves airflow, while superblocks limit car traffic within neighborhoods, making the city more pedestrian-friendly and community-focused. 3 replies

The Network School â Days 22-26
This week was a deep dive into history with two stellar lectures from Balaji.
My inner nerd thrived with the interactive quizzesâlearning by doing makes things stick. The flood of references (books, movies, articles) he shared had me adding a lot to my reading list⊠which just keeps growing!
Some highlights from this week (events organized by NS'ers):
- Discovered 50 fundraising hacks, all explained through memes
- Took a look into the world of Darknet Markets, how marketplaces work, appear, and disappear
- Received my meaningful Chinese name thanks to @camellia: ææŻçœćżç¶ (LuĂł XÄ«n YĂĄo)
- Attended a Full Moon party with the community: there was a bonfire, games, dancing and coconuts
TLDR: A mix of learning, fun, and community vibes. 2 replies
