The notebook / Ideas & explorations
Questions worth following.
Some questions are worth keeping around before they become a project. These are starting points for reading, conversations, and small experiments.
What should a scientist learn before building a company?
Which commercial assumptions can be tested early, cheaply, and without losing sight of the science? The Lean Lab is the written starting point; a small toolkit is one possible next step.
When producing an answer gets easier, what makes it trustworthy?
I’m interested in how people demonstrate capability, check evidence, and make decisions when AI can generate increasingly convincing work. The question applies to hiring, scientific work, and the tools we choose to trust.
What becomes possible when more people can build their own tools?
AI-assisted development makes it worth trying smaller, more specific ideas. I want to understand where that helps someone do useful work—and where a spreadsheet or a clear explanation is already enough.
