The casualness with which people are scheduling meetings for next week as if we're not going to be in a fugue state for multiple days just trying to survive is alarming to me.

One lil big thing: The Flides team *heavily* biases towards "build it and see how it feels." When you spend less time in the hypothetical and more in the interactive, vibes are muchhhh more positive, generative, and motivating.
