What’s shaping my thinking.

Books I return to, conversations that changed a question, people whose work I follow, and tools I use to build. Every entry includes the reason it is here.

In circulation

A few things I keep close.

A small selection of things I recommend, revisit, or use often enough to explain why.

Start here

If you only do three things.

The short path I share when someone wants to understand AI without getting lost in an endless resource list.

  1. 01

    Read

    Co-Intelligence

    Ethan Mollick’s practical introduction to working with AI. Short enough to finish and useful enough to change how you work the next day.

  2. 02

    Watch

    Corbin Brown

    Watch someone build a real app instead of hearing another abstract explanation of what AI might do.

  3. 03

    Try

    Claude

    Have a real conversation or describe an app idea and see what comes back. The fastest way to understand the tools is to use them.

The index

Follow your curiosity.

Co-Intelligence

Ethan Mollick

The book I recommend first when someone asks how to work with AI without turning the conversation into a technical lecture.

Start here

One Useful Thing

Ethan Mollick

Grounded experiments and observations from someone who uses the tools daily. The back catalog is unusually useful.

Start here

Every

Dan Shipper and team

Long-form writing about AI, products, and how the way we work is changing, with enough detail to be useful.

Intermediate

Compound Engineering: The Definitive Guide

Dan Shipper and Kieran Klaassen

A working model for turning completed projects into instructions, tools, and checks that improve the next run.

Technical

From Hierarchy to Intelligence

Block and Sequoia Capital

A concrete operating model for giving small teams clear ownership while shared systems carry context across the company.

Intermediate

How to Scale a Magical Experience

Reid Hoffman on Brian Chesky’s 11-star framework

The 11-star exercise pushes a product past the first feasible answer, then works back to the version worth shipping.

Intermediate

Interpretable Context Methodology

Jake Van Clief and David McDermott

A file-based approach to agent workflows where folders define stages, markdown carries context, and each output stays open to human review.

Technical

Behind the Craft

Peter Yang

Peter tests AI tools through product work, detailed tutorials, and interviews with people shipping the systems.

Andrej Karpathy

AI research and education

The clearest technical intuition I have found for models, agents, and the changing shape of software work.

Intermediate

Ethan Mollick

AI, work, and education

Frequent, concrete experiments about how AI changes teaching, research, and everyday knowledge work.

Start here

Dan Shipper

AI products and company building

Working notes from building AI products and changing how a company operates around them.

Intermediate

Claire Vo

How I AI

Operators show their real workflows, including where AI helps, where it breaks, and what still needs judgment.

Intermediate

Peter Yang

Product thinking and AI

He tests specific AI tools and workflows through product decisions, tutorials, and interviews.

Intermediate

Jake Van Clief

Interpretable Context Methodology

His ICM work treats folders, markdown, and reviewable files as the control surface for agent workflows.

Technical

Corbin Brown

Builder and educator

His build videos keep the failed attempts and fixes that polished demos usually remove.

Start here

3Blue1Brown

Grant Sanderson · Visual mathematics

Visual explanations that make the mechanics of neural networks and transformers easier to inspect.

Technical

Ernesto Software

Consumer app operator

Concrete lessons from building, monetizing, and distributing consumer apps instead of founder theater.

Intermediate

Boris Cherny

AI developer tools

Useful signal on Claude Code, developer tools, and the constraints behind agentic software work.

Technical

Dotta

Agent and orchestration systems

Experiments in agents, orchestration, and composable systems that are close to the problems I am building around.

Technical

Claude

Anthropic

A daily thinking and building tool, especially when a project needs a lot of context held together.

Start here

Codex

OpenAI

I use coding agents for scoped implementation work, parallel exploration, testing, and the operational details that make software ship.

Intermediate

Notion

Working memory and control plane

Where product context, decisions, research, and operating systems stay connected instead of disappearing across documents.

Intermediate

Supabase

Backend platform

A practical foundation for shipping authenticated products with Postgres, storage, and real-time behavior without unnecessary ceremony.

Intermediate

Cloudflare

Edge infrastructure and deployment

I use Pages, Workers, D1, and Wrangler to deploy sites and run product infrastructure at the edge.

Intermediate

Doppler

Secrets management

I use Doppler to keep environment secrets out of repositories and deliver the right configuration to each runtime.

Intermediate

GitHub Actions

Continuous integration and release automation

Build, test, metadata, screenshot, and release workflows run through versioned automation beside the code.

Technical

Sentry

Application monitoring

I use release-aware errors and traces to connect a production failure to the build and code path that caused it.

Intermediate

PostHog

Product analytics

I use product events and funnels to inspect how a shipped flow behaves after it reaches users.

Intermediate

RevenueCat

Subscription infrastructure

I use RevenueCat for subscription state, purchase restoration, entitlements, and store-side release work across mobile apps.

Intermediate

60fps.design

Mobile and web motion reference

I use the shipped interaction examples to study timing, transitions, and motion that explains a state change.

Intermediate

Design Spells

Interaction reference library

A reference library for hover states, transitions, feedback, and small interface details.

Intermediate

This library changes as the work changes.
