I'm starting a new role next week, almost the union of my past two roles, and have been thinking about the piece I wrote when deciding to leave Stripe a lot: https://lethain.com/forty-year-career/

While I disagree with most stuff I've written 3+ years ago, this one still holds true for me.

A forty-year career.

The Silicon Valley narrative centers on entrepreneurial protagonists who are poised one predestined step away from changing the world. A decade ago they were heroes, and more recently they’ve become villains, but either way they are absolutely the protagonists. Working within the industry, I’ve worked with quite a few non-protagonists who experience their time in technology differently: a period of obligatory toil required to pry open the gate to the American Dream.

If you're looking for something to play with this weekend, check out this side project that some engineers at Science and I have been working on! It’s an AI agent framework, written in Typescript.

In it, you can easily spin up things like: two agents conversing, one acting as an idea generator, the other as a critic, on any topic you suggest.

In the Tetris movie, the General Counsel of Nintendo USA is wearing a lab coat around the office. I intend to start doing this immediately….

I need an app that tracks how I’m feeling at all times and sends me helpful push notifications, like:

“YOU ARE ANGRY
Stop being a dick”

or

“Everything’s fine
Go to sleep”

We have brain implants and speech sentiment detection and facial emotion recognition and continuous bloodstream monitors…we must be getting close to being able to do this right

i love paywalls because they prevent me from reading things on the internet, and reading things on the internet is the leading cause of unhappiness in my life
