A book is gentle but effective track for attention, like grooves in a path. When my mind is wayward, a book offers a chance to “lock in” and build momentum, before exiting gracefully on my own terms.

I don’t trade crypto and barely know what this means but I feel like Matcha should continue not supporting limit orders on Base because once they do I’ll never hear about the product again

I know it’s a meme but today I confirmed the Farcaster office is literally a 30 second walk from Erewhon makes sense now

The location feature on Farcaster is great but I wish I could set a “home” location so people don’t accidentally think I live in LA while I’m here this week 🥲

City Council passed a series of bills last week reforming the use of sidewalk sheds (aka "scaffolding") that cover roughly 400 miles(!) of NYC streets The average shed has been up for more than 500 days, even though permits for facade renovations only last for one year. These bills would shorten the permit length to three months and introduce fines for property owners that don't complete the necessary construction in time.

One thing I've struggled with in my career is separating my interests from the actual work. I quit my first job thinking I had something lined up at a company that I was obsessed with. I successfully chatted my way to a final round interview for a role that didn't exist because I was passionate about the product and the design space. But I didn't get the role because I couldn't explain how I would actually contribute to the business. At times over the years, I've been a moth to a flame, leading myself to situations that are fascinating from a distance but ultimately a dangerous mirage masking the day to day experience of a job. I used to be a romantic about work. Now I'm not even sure that passion is necessary (let alone sufficient) for a good job.

Today’s going to be one of those “impossible to dock your Citibike in Red Hook” days, isn’t it?

TIL about "witching hour", a period often in the early evening when puppies will go bezerk For the past week Moose has been driving us crazy around (human) dinner time – random barking, jumping, and chewing that's out of the ordinary. I thought it was because he wanted our food, but tonight he started acting up before we started any cooking. Good to know other people have been through the same thing!

I’d like to do a talk at /farcon-nyc but not exactly sure what the topic would be (maybe something around /firstdraft?) What would y’all want to learn about?
