- The plan? We increase Canada's brand awareness by starting wildfires that blow smoke into New York—America's most influential city.
- Raycast is blowing my mind. It's the 20% of macOS I didn't realize was missing. It's everything I wanted Alfred to be. It's clearly made by people obsessed with nailing the details. It's been 2 days and I can't remember how I used my computer before it.

- Brave has completely changed my mind on ads. I thought I'd never put up with them again, but it's totally different when they respect you (and even reward you for your attention!) Thanks @BrendanEich and the whole @brave team for changing the game. Now to go tip some creators!
- friday was my last day at @Uniswap 🦄 I learned a ton over the last 2 years and made some lifelong friends. it's hard to leave such an awesome team at such an exciting time but I'm thrilled to share that I'll be starting my next chapter soon at @blackbird 🕊️

- Replying to @aaronkbrA nuclear option on the other side is possible, but not yet deployed: motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/…
- for halloween I'm dressing up as a wireless network that's not owned by the people 😱
