Stellar audio portrait of him here, told first-person: https://loveandradio.org/2014/02/the-silver-dollar/ Sonically it’s beautifully produced, but a transcript is in the link as well.

Final straw for me. Just called and canceled after 15+ years—shockingly, they were loath to actually provide the unlock code to port my number out. Switched to an MVNO on the same network that’s >50% cheaper.

Highly recommend dog runs for a “third place”. Generally caring, welcoming are people drawn there and unlike, say, a gym, people have nothing but free time to socialize. The best way I’ve found to make meaningful relationships post-college.

Classic Pareto improvement: the gains to the winners (society at large) are greater than the losses to the losers (those who held these jobs), so a side payment makes everyone better off. My concern (besides the medium term pain and instab

You should do some research on the drug they’re actually citing, Lamictal (lamotragine), if this is the impression you have/share with others. It in no way is a “downer”, and is often given semi-offlabel interchangeably with standard S

Echoing sibling: waited years, found good used deal, told myself I’d just sell it for the same price if I didn’t love it. Most inspiring instrument I’ve ever played. Reconnected me back to making music.
