I'm asking naively and honestly: is there a solution to brine? Believe it's pumped directly back into ocean at the moment.

You said it best: sounds like he surrounds himself with people (and lawyers) that tell him what he wants to hear. Have worked for someone like that before - it is not fun.

I have another variation on this problem: my wife and I get the same emails from school. We both have accounts within the school platform. So, what usually happens: 1. Both of us get email 2. One of us sees email before other, may or may no

Hm. I think a lot of new homes (around me) have cameras. Just built with them by developer/etc. I have cameras around the outside of my house. Not worried about crime (despite it seeming otherwise). I don't look at the video feed

I am both for avoiding electronics but also enjoy TV in bed. Not necessary but it’s not something that I restrain much. Haven’t seen too many people suggest this: train yourself to wake up earlier. I wake up at 5. That’s not a hustle cultur

I'm stuck on the title. What's this article about? Why should I read it? (I read it) This post's title does not echo some of the points in the article. Good human-sourced writing will be hard to do/find? Well, don't

What's "worth" in this question? May be hard to answer. My view from the same behavior: yes, worth it. Was everything productive for a career? For a relationship with someone else? Sometimes yes. Sometimes no. Would love to h

Love how dead simple and to the point this is. Great job. Put some stuff about it in my newsletter so you might see some traffic from a newsletter called The Teardown (on Substack)

Interesting. The person I replied to had the opposite opinion. The only answer for them, it seemed. Care to share a bit of the detail behind this very pointed response? Thanks so much for it.

When or how did you decide to take something vs what was happening before? I’ve done lots of therapy work. Systemizing and structuring things. Definitely helpful. But sometimes I just feel wired (this way) and wonder if chemically rewiring

Under-appreciated point you make: not about speed. I own a 2014 Boxster S. 315 hp, 266 lb/ft torque, 6-speed. It is NOT the fastest car out there. In fact I own an automatic 3-series BMW that's faster in a straight line every time

Completely agree with you. I think (like you) it is about VERY deliberate action. My phrase: a conscious turn in the other direction. The more I practice changing or revamping my reactions/approaches to situations, the more those thing
