tool / built
“pretty much the first thing I built was just an RSS reader that takes all the Substacks and other newsletters and podcasts and a couple of other things. And pre-computes a summary for each one, actually kind of two levels of summary for each one.”
app / built
“So yeah, so I built one of the projects is called Mirror, by the way, only just now realizing that everything I've been talking to, you know, half the listeners will only be listening and not seeing.”
other / built
“I built a Chrome extension that clicks the five buttons for me and it saves me 15 seconds, three times a day. Took a couple minutes to write. It's awesome.”
app / likes
“This is the payload for the Twitter integration. So it's just a feed reader with just like a bunch of little details, like deduping, retweets, and other things, like just to make it, and like, it auto-expands, like instead of only showing the first 140 or 280 characters, it like auto-expands everything, so just like little fit and finish things that I prefer relative to the default behavior of the Twitter app.”
other / built
“I built a Chrome extension that clicks the five buttons for me and it saves me 15 seconds, three times a day.”

“I go out for a walk so I can be in a different headspace. And so what I've settled into that I really like is what I will do that's sort of work-ish while I'm out walking is I'll have some project I'm working on.”
02 / preference
“I don't like to use a tool unless I really know I can trust it and I understand what it's going to do. So that does feel like that's a pool I feel like it's going to be so worthwhile to jump into that I will eventually find myself forced to, but I haven't gone there yet.”
03 / preference
“generating all these summaries and stuff. And I'm really profligate, like I'm using Opus to generate these dumb little summaries and whatever, because like, why not?”
