Hey everyone! An interesting, and polarizing conversation ensued on Hacker News this week. Jacob Greenfeld shared how he uses a ‘system’ to stay in touch with hundreds of people. Some considered this approach mechanical whereas others sided on the practicality side of it. Afterall, how does one stay in touch with hundreds of people without a ‘scientific’ method?

In an era of automations, AI driven responses, and ‘personal CRMs’, should we manage relationships through scripts? Or it’s the serendipity and randomness that wins?

With these thoughts, here’s something we request you to do - read this newsletter and call your highschool best friend.

Tell us how it felt 😊
