Thanks for the condescension. I commented because you wrote "And it makes sense" - but I don't think it does and I explained why I think that.

The beginning of the word "cute" is about as close as you can get to the ch in "ich" in English.

Completely agree on F1 - it's super easy and I get more than I could ever consume. Between highlight episodes, multiple commentary tracks, live data, and race archives including seasons 10 years ago they've done a great job. I don

IANAL - but reside generally means you established a residence there as opposed to just visited.

It's the quality of the image for me. I remember when DVD looked phenomenal (because compared to broadcast and VHS it was) but now it feels barely watchable.

I have a NAS in my home, and my parents have a NAS in theirs. Everything is on Tailscale and I can SSH into either machine whenever I need. I've needed to do this a few times when I am on the road, but more commonly when I use Tailscal

Not OP, but I use Figma to do this. There are lots of templates in the community, or you can make your own pretty easily. If you don't want to do it as manually there are paid tools that will help. Google "app store screenshot mak

This is often intentional as it's a way of bridging a foreign cuisine to the local palate - which feta certainly would do. I don't personally like it but I think that's why it sometimes happens. It's not very difficult t

Nice! These "books-like" lists feel and resonate better with me. From the first list I've read Notes from a Small Island, Into the Wild, and Wild, and now some of the others on the list that I don't know, like Llama Dram

I'm echoing my other comment a little bit but I've been following Shepherd and thought I would comment since you're here. I like a lot of your ideas but I haven't quite managed to get recommendations that consistently so

Promising idea (and a real unsolved problem for me) but at the moment I am getting the same as kind of recommendations others are experiencing. Mostly books I already know well or would see in other recommendation lists. Maybe three books i

It's a good one and if you enjoy it I can recommend most of Pollan's other books.

I am not sure that I would conflate the success of your course to mean much about the relative success of your startup. I think there are a few other things to consider that are specific to your situation (as an outsider it's been inte

Taking $30m that will wipe out most of your stake, and still not carry the business through to profitability seems like a tough road to go down. You've said you're not sure you have the energy, and I expect that your energy will g

Flour is clearly the winner vs. peanut butter when comparing price per calories. At Walmart.com it is $2.12 for a 5lb (2.26kg) bag which is about 8250 calories. But yeah, processing that into bread (home energy cost and time cost) is tough

Or make all compensation public information for everyone. I believe in Norway you can see anyone's tax return, which isn't exactly the same because it aggregates all earnings from all sources into one, but it doesn't appear,

I don't know if it is enough yet but there has been an explosion of this kind of content on Youtube over the last 10 years. For typical home repairs it seems most topics are pretty well covered.

In the US there are strong incentives for light trucks / SUVs and that's the result we see - they're the most popular vehicles. In Europe / Japan the incentives are different and we see an entirely different class of veh

You're right there aren't any quick fixes, but regulation can change things over time. While there may be tons of SUVs on the road now, we could incentivize different vehicles and within 10-15 years the balance would be completely

He addresses the size of vehicle issue and explains how station wagons or vans are more practical than SUVs for most families. Perhaps your situation is different, but I felt he made a compelling case.
