The rise of the solofounder in the AI age

When Facebook bought Instagram for a billion dollars back in 2012, the company had thirteen full-time employees. Thirteen. A photo-sharing app that hundreds of millions of people loved, valued at ten figures, and the entire team could fit comfortably around a fairly normal dinner table. At the time, this felt like a freak outlier. Now ... Read more

Most Polymarket Users Lose Money, While Top 1% Claim 76.5% of Gains, Study Finds

In Polymarket's prediction market, "most people end up losing money," reports the Washington Post — typically a few bucks. "Since Polymarket launched in 2022, a few thousand people have lost the bulk of the money... and an even smaller group — .05 percent of users — has gone home with most of the overall profits, according to a new analysis from finance researcher Pat Akey and colleagues."

Apple AirPods Max 2 vs Sennheiser HDB 630 vs Sony WH-1000XM6 comparison

Premium wireless headphones occupy a rarified space, far outside the reach of most audio products, and indeed, most people’s budgets. Despite the encroachment of true wireless earbuds, these behemoths have remained a constant presence in the market and are the preferred option, especially among travelers, due to their superior noise cancellation and extended battery life. Sony has ruled this segment for years with its WH-1000X series of headphones. About a... Read more

Quote by Voltaire: “Doubt is an uncomfortable condition, but certainty is a ridiculous one”

I had a friend in New York, years ago, who was certain about everything. I mean everything. The right way to make eggs. The correct decade for jazz. Which neighborhoods were finished and which were ascendant. Whether a particular novelist was overrated. Whether your relationship was going to work out. He delivered these verdicts the ...

I was at my parents’ house in London a few years ago, sometime in the strange middle of an afternoon, and my mother went out to the shops. She said she’d be about an hour. She closed the front door. The house went quiet. My father was in the living room. I was in the ... Read more Read more

The most painful thing about having parents who love you but don’t quite know you is that they will spend the rest of their lives describing a son they invented to people who will never meet the one you actually became.

My mother told a story about me at a dinner party in 2019. I wasn’t there. The story got back to me through a cousin, the way these things do, slightly rounded at the edges from the journey. In the story, I was a confident young man who had built a successful business through sheer ... Read more Read more

Retirement isn’t hard because of the empty hours — it’s hard because the silence finally meets the feelings work kept at bay

For it seems decades, the standard warning about retirement was that it would be boring. The advice that grew up around that warning was almost entirely about activity. Take up a hobby. Join a club. Volunteer. Travel. Build a list of projects. The implicit theory was simple. The problem with retirement was that it had ... Read more Read more

Black coffee drinkers aren’t more disciplined — they’ve simply developed a learned association between bitterness and stimulation, often driven by faster caffeine metabolism

There’s a particular look that passes between people in a café when one person orders a black coffee and the other orders an oat milk vanilla latte. It’s quick, it’s mostly unconscious, and it carries a small judgement that neither person would likely defend if pressed on it. But we all know it. The black ... Read more Read more

For some people, the loneliest moment of the week isn’t Friday night alone — it’s Sunday afternoon surrounded by family they can’t quite be honest with

I want to tell you about a specific Sunday in 2018, in my parents’ kitchen in London. It was the kind of Sunday afternoon that, on paper, looked like the answer to most of what’s wrong with modern life. Three generations in one room. A roast had been eaten. The dishwasher was doing the second ... Read more Read more

I’m 38 and I noticed last summer that my parents only ask about logistics — the drive, the weather, the dogs, the job — and never about how I actually am, and I realized I’d been answering questions about the surface of my life for so long I’d forgotten what it felt like to be asked about anything underneath

I drove to my parents’ house last summer for a long weekend, and somewhere on the second day I noticed something I’d been not-noticing for about thirty years. It started in the kitchen, on the Saturday morning. My mother asked me how the drive had been. I told her. Then she asked about the dogs. ... Read more Read more
