Good conversation tips:
“If we had 5 mins left, what would you want to have had covered” gets to the meat earlier
“Putting aside a list of pros/cons, what’s the one reason you’re doing this?” “Why is that the most important reason?”
“What would the best version of yourself do”?

Dont force your kid to blindly adhere to your rules, if they learn to blindly follow you they will not be able to make rational decisions for themselves. I always said "my rules are law, unless you can tell me reasonably why you have a better idea" this gets kids thinking about their situation, and not just acting out against you. Shows them that y

Increasingly, we will curate sources and ideas and let AI handle execution or assembly. Honing an ability to curate and arrange these sources will cultivate depth and meaning in your work—tuning the machine to your specifi... See more

I have sometimes pondered the pivotal moment when money changes people forever. The answer is, without doubt, the acquisition of the private plane—it’s the moment when you leave the human race forever.

Absolutely excellent piece.
Throughout history, new technologies have opened new fields of expression and expanded what's possible. Every time a new technology came in, at least half were left behind loving the old craft or worrying about the future. Those who embrace the discomfort, understand how the tool can be wielded will continue to create novel ideas and change culture, With the printing press, those who mastered textual literacy created profound societal impact. In those early days, this literacy was an essential differentiator.
Just as the printing press democratized knowledge creation, AI is commoditizing access to intelligence and with it redefining technical execution. This is now widely accepted. AI can generate endless ‘perfect’ outputs, and its reasoning capabilities will only expand. Design’s tools will change but design’s essence remains distinctly human: creation guided by feeling & relationships rather than pure logic, and the judgment to know what’s worth creating.
Design literacy—combining curiosity, studied curation, personal conviction, and craft—will become as vital as verbal literacy.
This way of seeing and thinking becomes a new differentiator. It’s a new type of intelligence and design that will separate those who thrive from those who fade into the noise. I see this type of design everywhere in my work with founders, engineers, salespeople, and investors—they are all designers in their own right. It is innate—it just needs to be unlocked.
The best founders already understand this. In a world where anyone can build, they know what to build, who it’s for, and why it must exist.

this hits hard (reminds me of something i wanna write about - binary thinking is bad)
The problem with AI tools today is that they don’t take your judgment into account
Strategy and process is mostly a mistake when doing creative work
