I use Notion as a ledger for my @bot cloud agents.
I have a bot that takes in all my PR work and hands it out to cloud agents.
With several running at once, the problem stops being code. It's knowing what's in flight, who owns it, and what's stuck and why.
Chat history is bad at that, really bad. It's long, it scrolls away, and every bot and agent has its own.
So everything goes in one table:
> one row per PR
> row is created immediately when work starts
> store owner cloud agent, CI status, next step
> agents check the table before starting
> asking "where's that PR?" just reads the row
> daily sweep against the real PRs
> done rows hidden, never deleted
The result is that no two agents fix the same bug, and I can ask about any PR and get a straight answer.
So far it's only lost 11 PRs, and those never got a row...
More on this setup soon ✌️

Miraculous update on @BenWilsonTweets’s cancer fight:
“There has been enormous shrinkages in my tumor load. It’s unbelievable.“
“For a few months I had one foot in the grave. I was not a good father. I was just laying on the couch for a few months. Now I can coach my daughter’s soccer game. I can run around with them and give them piggyback rides and throw them into the air. I didn’t think I’d have any more days like this, of basically feeling normal again. Now I’m stacking weeks. That’s where I’m at.”
“I’m hoping this buys us a few years for new drugs to come out”
“I’ve got people from all over the world contacting me about exciting new therapies.”
every day in AI reminds me more of crypto…
“It’s all too much, too fast. Too much money, too much growth, too much power, too much change. Every month, a new frontier model is released. Every day, a new unicorn is minted. Seriously. 300 days into the year 2026, and 311 unicorns have been minted so far.”
I love it
The people of Silicon Valley are unwell.
If you work at a frontier lab or decacorn, you’ve got it bad. You haven’t seen your kids, your girlfriend’s annoyed, invites from friends to hang out are waning, even weddings are on hold. This is the time to make your mark and make your money, after all.
If you’re building a startup that’s trying to compete with or be one of these companies, you’ve got it bad. Maybe you passed up a job offer at one a couple years back, which means you left $100M on the table, you fucking idiot. Being an underdog isn't as fun as you thought.
If you’re working on a pre-AI startup, you’ve got it bad. Not too long ago you were the belle of the ball, but now your 30% year-on-year growth doesn’t feel like growth at all. It feels like death.
"Too many of my friends are spiraling," Brie Wolfson writes. "I don’t know how we’re supposed to live and work like this."

So what’s left for the sane ones? Brie went looking for teams playing a different game. She found one in Ottawa: a search infrastructure company that many of the AI darlings rely on.
It's growing fast, and its people are well.
