I love this. Feel like I’m the same way. I also feel like some of this “focusing on the wrong thing” is sharpening the saw, preparing my mind and my environment for greater productivity. As long as I eventually return to the right things.

If AI’m building isn’t a typo, I kinda like it as a way to accurately claim what I’m building with AI.

New comment by phalangion in "The Friendship Recession: The lost art of connecting"

phalangion — Sat, 26 Apr 2025 14:17:32 +0000

It really is exactly this. My default mindset is "everybody's busy with their own lives, so they probably don't have time so I won't even try to invite them to X." Change your assumptions a little bit to instead assume people want to do things. If they say no, so be it. But I've found that people want to be invited out to do more things than they are, so send the invites.

I started swimming with a community team two years ago, and about 4 months in I invited them to also lift weights with me. Now there are about 8 of us that are together 5 mornings per week. Took a chance and invited them on a trip, and now 5 of us are going on a week long trip together.

Find a group of people doing something you like. If it's a tech meetup, community organization, hobby group, whatever. What it is doesn't matter. What matters is that you find people with whom you share _an_ interest. Then take a chance there and say "hey, want to meet up for lunch next week?" Or just say "hey, I'm going to see X next weekend, want to come?"

> I think some people just have to be the inviters or relationships fall apart.

As annoying as it is, this is definitely true. I've only recently become an inviter, and it's made all the difference. It helps to recognize that not everybody is an inviter/organizer.

People complained about censorship within ChatGPT pretty quickly after it was released. The difference is that now people know to look for it, so the evaluations are happening both more quickly and more systematically.
