Mind is blown: just built a semantic search app in a few hours with OpenAI embeddings and Pinecone DB in a few hours for under $1. And it works SO WELL. Even just a few years ago this would be been orders of magnitude more expensive and a lot more tedious

I wish I told myself long ago: how much better life can be when you are as authentic as possible. In relationships, work, hobbies, everything... I feel like literally I have hours more time per day than a few years ago, my energy levels are so much higher. Small stuff adds up!

Building startups has done WONDERS for my perfectionism You’re forced to endure an imperfect environment and still keep up anyway, repeat for X years Partially explains why those I’ve seen who are the best at embracing the chaos tend to be super emotionally mature + successful
