For tomorrow
Tomorrow, I plan to send a thank you note to everyone, including Jono. I'll inquire about giving him items for his garden and figure out how to arrange that. I'm also contemplating what the arrangement might entail. That's my current thought process.

Evening brain dump
Today was eventful with a pleasant dinner party I hosted for Caroline, Patrick, and Kyle, reuniting this group for the first time in two years. The evening was filled with meaningful conversations, vulnerability, and appreciation for the company. I also visited Nick to help with their business spreadsheets, exploring potential additional income. Tomorrow's plans include a bike ride to Mnemonic to spend time writing and reflecting on recent discussions, fueled by energy and an espresso.

Morning
I overslept by 20 minutes this morning due to feeling unwell, but waking up at 5:50 am rather than 5:30 am doesn't concern me too much. Despite not being on time, I appreciate how rising early shapes the start of my day. After waking, I had coffee and planned to make eggs soon to address my hunger. My thoughts are occupied with the challenges of getting a startup off the ground, acknowledging that it's a significant undertaking but ultimately a positive one.

Flavoring bob the burrito
Bob, the burrito, sent a message that was okay but lacked flavor. It needs something like Tanaki to enhance it. Considering ways to spice it up through Tanaki could improve it.

Wake up 5:30 tomorrow
After successfully waking up on time today and feeling satisfied with the early start, I plan to make it a nightly routine to wake up at 5:30 a.m. for coffee, breakfast, and quiet time for strategic thinking, particularly about my business plan. Additionally, I aim to complete personal tasks such as doing laundry and meal planning. I'll work until around 1 p.m. before meeting Nick to discuss work related to a spreadsheet and the possibility of negotiating one or two months of free rent.

Fantastic call with Jamie
I had a productive call with Jamie, during which we discussed my ideas and strategies for effectively pitching them. Jamie gave me tips on improving user experience and the importance of showing a polished concept over a rudimentary but functional prototype. We touched on the balance between immediate buildable aspects and long-term vision, emphasizing the importance of clarity in communicating how short-term plans align with the long-term future. I am grateful for Jamie's encouragement and advice, and I'm looking forward to possibly working with friends like Austin to further explore and demonstrate the potential of my ideas.

Amazing afternoon
I had a rejuvenating afternoon filled with enjoyable activities and conversations, including a chat with Jamie, a nice talk with John, and catching up with Jono over tea since his return from New Zealand. I also made myself a sandwich, went for a bike ride, and I am looking forward to a homemade dinner of salmon, kale, and rice. It's 7:30 now, and after dinner, I plan to take some time for separate notes regarding calls and such. Today was simply a great day.

Jensen Huang is a boss
The individual finds Jensen Huang's interviews impressive due to his eloquence and unique sense of humor. Huang discussed NVIDIA's decision not to fab chips, emphasizing the company's focus and strategic choices. The speaker appreciates Huang's storytelling in explaining NVIDIA's purpose and the importance of focus, especially when considering the excellence of TSMC in that area. Listening to Huang provided valuable insights, juxtaposed against the backdrop of Intel's less favorable situation.
