Been working on a real estate deal for a while.
Yesterday I was told something was going to take 3-5 days to turn around.
I asked why? Answer: Because that's how long it usually takes.
Then I asked: What would happen if you called them and told them you need it tomorrow?

I used robots to take a file received by a human in Basecamp, store it in R2 storage at @Cloudflare , assign IDs to it in BC and CF, make a triage card for it in Basecamp, then follow my instructions with some edits/approvals to turn the file into an action alert for humans on a

.@benthompson gives his recommendation on how Meta should market Muse:
"The way to frame this is to say: 'We're not helping you be more productive, we're helping you get rid of annoying crap in your life.'"
"It needs to be framed more as a pain relief as opposed to this https:/

Now you can add backgrounds to your Basecamp 5 projects.

My favorite essay from The Manual.
There are a lot of things you can practice in life, but the more you practice this, the better off you’re going to be in nearly any situation.

Just shipped a new convenience feature in Basecamp 5. Now you can drag images/files directly onto a docs & files tool on your project page to upload them directly to the project.
Before you had to click through then upload. Now you can just drop them right where you want them on

It's funny... I know dictation is generally better/faster, but I feel like I still want to hold on to typing. I'm giving up so many other skills (and picking up new ones, yeah), but for some reason I'm reticent to see my typing skills atrophy!

I'm proud to welcome @robzolkos to 37signals!
Rob's a perfect, modern example of how to land an opportunity at a company you like.
Rob never applied for a job here. We weren't, and aren't, hiring. He just applied himself and, in doing that, made himself impossible to ignore. ht

One of my all-time favorite HEY features is being able to rename threads so they make sense to you without messing up anything for anyone else. This is especially helpful when someone else starts a thread with a relatively nondescript name.
In this real example, I rename this ht

Hard agree @JensenHuang!
This stance cost us 30% of our employees back in 2021, but it reset the company and was the best decision we've ever made.

A really lovely GRID VIEW is coming to Basecamp 5 shortly.
We had a grid view in 4, but it wasn't any good and I didn't want to drag it into 5. Had we done that, we'd have called it done and never revisited. By intentionally leaving it out, we allowed pressure to build to bring
