Distribution as Proof of Work
Distribution is work in the most literal sense. In physics, work is force applied over distance. In startups, distribution is a sustained effort applied across social distance. Conversations, travel, user interviews, channel building, follow-ups, community presence, answering the same question for the tenth time. None of this is cosmetic. It moves the system. That framing gets buried under leverage talk. Code scales. Content scales. Capital scales. Distribution gets mislabeled as marketing, a...

GM Farcaster this week: markets tankin' but we keep clankin'
GM! It was a "it's so over; we're so back" kind of week (currently writing from "it's so over" land). Wait, didn't I start this newsletter like this last week? It's like Groundhog Day! But we've been here before (not that any of us wanted to return). But even with lobster bots running wild and markets crashing, we had two great episodes this week with amazing OG builders: @matthewfox chatting Clankermon and @jacek the new dad hanging with us to chat Degen. Catch up on both episodes!

No is the second best answer
Many years ago, a real estate broker said this to me, and it has stuck ever since. I often go back to it in my mind. The logic behind it is as follows. The best answer is customarily "yes." "Would you like to invest $100 million into my development project?" "Yes, I'd love to! Where should I send the money? I'll do that right now." This is the outcome you want. The second-best answer is "No, I don't like you and I don't like your project." This is not what you want to hear, and it will probab...

How the Sausage Gets Made
It is February 2026, and we are once again in a moment of reckoning about how the world gets built.This time, the catalyst is artificial intelligence. Tools once gated by capital and engineering degrees are now open to anyone willing to learn in public and tolerate the inevitable growing pains. This moment feels different because the gates are finally open for anyone to build. But participating requires a deeper understanding of how ideas move from whiteboards to boardrooms.

Why record rentals won't stop our looming housing shortage
As most of you know, the Toronto housing market has shifted its attention from condominiums to rentals. This is out of necessity. According to the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board, the GTA saw approximately 71,392 condominium apartments leased (counting only those leased through MLS) in 2025.

To Learn AI, Skip the Tour of the Kitchen
Skip the Tour of the KitchenI’ve started getting a very specific kind of request when companies ask for AI 101 trainings. The questions usually sound like this:“Which LLM (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) and models should we use for each task?”“What’s the best tool for image generation? Video creation? Slide deck creation?”“What are all of the ways you can use this particular tool?”While these are practical questions, leading with a tools-first mindset is like teaching someone how to make a quiche b...

Base Creator Awardee Into the WilderVRS: Leaving the Grid, but Keeping the Signal
I know for a fact at least 9 out 10 people have fantasized about leaving life behind and restarting in nature (guilty). Disappearing into the wild, trading notifications for nature, and seeing what's left when the noise drops out. Kyle and Angela didn't just fantasize about it... They did it. After fifteen years living fully off-grid in the remote lakelands of Canada, building their own home and surviving winters that plunge to -53°C, the pair made another radical choice: trading ice and snow...

That's a wrap
I'm back in Toronto. And another "fresh pow annual" is in the books. The BC interior is a specific kind of ski and snowboard trip. It's not about dancing on tables in neon onesies while Champagne gondolas fly overhead.
