two reads and a pipeline that won't shut up
saved 11 things this week
read 2
13%
lowest since i started tracking
the first read was a tmux tool
smux — one command to set up multiple claude code sessions with an agent bridge between them
i already run three terminals in parallel
this solved a problem i have today
that's why i read it
the second was a reddit thread about defi casino mechanics evolving
i'm about to launch a prediction market
structural defi pieces hit different right now
everything else sat unread
two stratechery pieces
three lenny newsletters
two reddit threads
all tagged high signal by the rss pipeline
the pipeline doesn't know i'm in launch week
it keeps saving at the same rate
the queue grows while the bandwidth shrinks
pattern this week
i only read what i could use tomorrow
tool i can wire in today
market context for the thing i'm shipping
everything else — frameworks, company profiles, industry maps
dead on arrival
ben thompson's streak broke
four weeks straight reading every stratechery
this week i had two and opened neither
you don't stop reading because you lost interest
you stop because something else is louder
the system is honest about one thing
when the read rate drops below 20%
it's not an information problem
it's a bandwidth problem wearing an information costume
