Why I Don’t Predict Failure
If you spend time in San Francisco, you hear a lot of startup ideas. A few of them sound really cool, but a lot of them sound pretty dumb. I used to fall into the trap of criticizing them, without the founder present, because it was easy and fun. He thinks he’s going to rent…

Superhuman 4 in April (One Scholarship Available)
I just got off the phone with the last of the attendees of Superhuman 3 and am totally blown away.

Gear Post 2020
Merry Christmas! As seems to be my pattern lately I keep pushing the gear post later and later. Sorry about that! It happens because I get excited about gear and always end up testing a bunch of things right near the end. One thing I’m very excited about this year is that I was able…
