I was lucky enough to fly Global Services on United through my old boss' account at my old company. Flew internationally a couple of times and the level of attention was insane. Get to airport and they walk you to the lounge, past secu

One thought is that it would extremely useful to be able to interact over SMS: log events, contacts, receive reminders etc. Love the idea, keep it up!

A friend and I were thinking the same about 3 years ago and set out to make an e-paper "smarter" dumb phone. Turns out it's really hard to build a good dumb phone in 2017, especially given the phasing out of 2G. We landed on

I was born and raised in Managua. I think a visit to La Chureca (the dump you're taking about I think) would be a life-changing experience for most. I don't think you can truly understand poverty living in the US and not traveling

I think your problem is that you live in Hyde Park. It is quite isolated from the rest of the city. I agree with you that CTA should step up service to the south side, but living on the north side or west side you would much more easily liv

Loved this and I completely agree with most of the points you're making. What happened to wonder and boredom? What's your current system? Do you use a smartphone? Intentionally disconnect for periods of time?
