I’m 44 and I realized last month that the reason I keep my calendar full isn’t because I love being busy, it’s because an empty Tuesday afternoon feels like an accusation I don’t have an answer to

An empty afternoon on a busy person's calendar is not a scheduling gap. It is an exposure exercise we have spent years avoiding by filling the slot.

That’s later than the Mark 7 and the Mark 6, which were announced in mid-May and released in early June. But if you have your heart set on it, you can pre-order one today.

Stop asking what AI can do and start asking what it can’t

For the last two years, just about every conversation we’ve had about AI and careers has revolved around the same question. What can it do? Can it write the email? Can it build the deck? Can it code the feature? Can it analyze the data? Can it replace the junior analyst, the copywriter, the paralegal, ... Read more Read more â€ș

I asked 5 of my friends what they’d say at my funeral and then I sat quietly in my kitchen reading the answers and understood for the first time what I actually meant to the people around me — and what I had been getting wrong

I came across the idea somewhere between a philosophy podcast and a late-night scroll through Reddit. Someone had asked their closest friends to write what they would say at their funeral, not as a morbid exercise, but as a way of understanding how they were actually showing up in other people’s lives. Not how they ... Read more Read more â€ș

There is a version of feminism I grew up believing in completely.

The message was everywhere: billboards, magazine covers, motivational podcasts. You can ... Read more Read more â€ș

The habits that are ruining your focus aren’t always the obvious ones like social media or a messy desk, they’re the ones that feel productive, checking email before you’ve had a single original thought, saying yes to a meeting that could’ve been a message, and starting every morning inside someone else’s agenda

Most of us worry about the obvious focus killers. The phone face-up on the desk. The Slack badge in the corner of the screen. The third tab of TikTok we swore we’d close after one video. These get most of the blame because they look like distractions — loud, colorful, and a little embarrassing to ... Read more Read more â€ș

How to stop feeling guilty for wanting more than the people around you were taught to want

I am familiar with a different kind of guilt that doesn’t announce itself loudly. It settles in slowly, usually after a dinner where someone makes a comment about your ambitions, or when you catch yourself editing down your goals before sharing them. You start to wonder whether wanting more makes you ungrateful, or whether reaching ... Read more Read more â€ș

The most passive aggressive phrases at work don’t sound cruel on the surface, they can actually sound polite — “friendly reminder,” “per my last email,” “for future reference,” “as you no doubt are aware” — and the damage isn’t in the words, it’s in the smile they’re wrapped in that makes you feel insane for being bothered

There’s a particular feeling that comes from reading “friendly reminder” in an email and immediately wanting to throw your laptop out a window, right? The words are soft. The smiley face might even be there. But you know — somehow, in your bones — that you’ve just been told off. And if you mention it ... Read more Read more â€ș

Nobody talks about why so many men quietly end up with no close friends, and  it isn’t that they stopped caring, it’s often that the friendships were built around shared activities, and once the team, the job, or the season ended, nobody knew how to just call

A few months back, I was sitting out on the patio one evening trying to think of who I could call to grab a beer. Not for any particular reason. Just because I felt like catching up with someone. I scrolled through my phone for a minute or two, and the truth hit me. The ... Read more Read more â€ș
