A year ago eldest wanted tennis themed cake but quote from shop was $$$ so decided to make it myself 🙈... then youngest demanded I make her cake too, so I made her the world.

This year? This weekend specifically? Eldest wants dragon's egg.

Please send thoughts, prayers + tips.
Btw this is the requested spec 😫🤪
It’s starting people.
First casualty.

I may have gotten a spoon too close to the beaters. 😬😬😬

#rookiemistake #buynewbeaters
T-minus 100 minutes from little humans showing up and while on track, thinking perhaps I should have started sooner 😬
Getting the helpers involved.
Nailed it?? 🤣😅

✨Introducing the Milo plugin for ChatGPT.
openai.com/blog/chatgpt-p…

Our mission is to help parents make their minutes meaningful.

To tackle the invisible load, so we can all spend our precious minutes on what matters most, not on soccer emails, school reminders, endless to dos.
That mission has two parts.

1. First, make space by saving parents time - by handling all chaos coming at them daily.

You send it in, Milo sorts, saves, sends it back when/how it’s needed.

Screenshots, emails, voice memos, spreadsheets.

Do your worst. Milo will handle it.
2. Second, w/ time and space created, parents want an assist in how to spend those minutes meaningfully. That’s where Milo curates the best from the parenting hive mind to serve up options, fit for you.

Milo puts the quality back in time. 🤓

Today we're launching Milo co-parent for parents, powered by GPT-4.

W/ families across country, we've been testing something that tackles invisible load of running a family. Where I can throw all chaos to & have it just taken care of.

Bc families are about love, not logistics.
GPT-4 allows us to solve the challenges of:
- school newsletters
- soccer emails
- family whiteboards
- texted bday party invites
- sitter payment reminders
- ...
... difficult nuanced problems needing great accuracy, specific-to-families problem solving and personal preference.
Because we need this to work for every family, we're releasing a beta, SMS only product today that we want parents to start using and improving with us, with the challenges of their everyday.

Ugh I reallly dislike anything that propagates the absurd notion that parenting/childcare and work can be done simultaneously.

"Working parent" does not literally mean working while parenting and yet, that's pretty much what most media visuals promote.
Sure during Covid this was case for too many, too long, but can assure you, not a lot of quality work or parenting was happening during "doing both" times.

Yes, too many parents pushed here from need on days childcare falls through or in $$ crunches.

But should be exception.
Point is: let's not somehow deceive ourselves into thinking this is normal or expected.

Working parents should have access to phenomenal, affordable childcare so that they can work.

They should also have support so when they parent, they're not frazzled with all other details.

Why is AI (specifically, large large models) transformative for real world problems like the Invisible Load?

Because it's an entirely new kind of “intelligence” we haven't had in our toolbox until now.

Marrying human empathy, software logic and AI gets you:

✨ Magic.
For almost 8 years, I've been trying to solve some of the most human of problems at scale, with tools (software) that scale well but are too rigid to follow the uneven, irrational contours of human problems like childcare and the invisible load.
Software is a beautiful thing. It follows instructions beautifully, it is consistent and dependable. It's fast. It's cheap.

And humans are none of those things. But what they are is empathetic and nuanced and astute. There is beauty in kind of friction humans create and live in.

🤯 Something just clicked for me and I'm vibrating with excitement:

Encouraged that web3 will revolutionize the creator economy?

I just realized what it can do for the care economy.
The more I've dug into fundamentals of web3, the more I believe that a token and blockchain-based chassis will allow us to fundamentally change how we value + reward work done today on gray edges of economy -unseen + unserved.

Teachers, nurses, child/elder caregivers, neighbors.
First, some background. One of the canonical examples of web3 world is how artists are thriving. Before, an artist either starved or sold out to someone that took massive stakes on their talent.

Not a great path where the “long tail” is where the magic often lies.

So many incredible founders applying to @ycombinator for a chance to change trajectory/prob of success of their companies.

This was me 5 years ago, with my 3rd attempt, applying for Poppy, my previous company.

This is what finally worked:

🧵
📈 The results spoke for themselves.

Prior two times I had written more about potential than about actual results.

YCs motto is Make Something People Want.

Only way to prove that is w/ results. That consistently grow each week, each month.

I had growth no one could deny.
I had a team that could do justice to the potential to grow.

The prior two times I didn’t have team to demonstrate how I could make good on the ambition.

I found technical partner our company needed and I hired an incredibly talented person that jump started supply side.
