I’m Karl Yang. I currently work at Rippling on the bizops team. I previously worked at Xendit as a PM and CoS, and at LendingClub in strategy & bizops roles. I started my career investing in pre-IPO technology companies at VSL Partners.
This site is meant to expose surface area that I’m interested in engaging around. Ideas I’m currently gnawing on (and you should email/DM me about):
- How technology can enable us to be better, not just smarter (first explored here)
- Developing optimism / reducing cynicism
- Mythmaking
- Drills or micro-practice for knowledge workers
Some projects that I’ve worked on:
Featured writing
Career advice for people with bad luck (HN discussion)
Best-performing tweets (mostly memes, unsurprisingly)
