Notes on books, ideas, startups, and friends

Keeping it short and brief.

Those who know me know that my writing tends to be too long, over-articulated, and as a consequence, tardy.

Mentat is my effort to prove to myself that I can do the opposite: distill my thoughts quickly and in short form.

Expect brief notes on:

  • Books I read

  • Ideas I stumble upon

  • Startups I invest in or that intrigue me

  • Friends whose company I enjoy

And perhaps a grab bag of others…
