And let's not forget - bands. Very versatile. They saved me during early COVID. But if I were - unwilling to gym it - I'd buy a few bands and use them for all sorts of push and pull exercises as well as mobility, stretching. Highl

Understood - I have that problem too which unfortunately limits the heavy stuff sometimes.

Try again! (to hit that PR) Some weeks you'll have the right combo, some weeks you won't. But my general approach is to work toward a PR of some sort every 6 weeks or so. I don't always get there, but, I keep trying!

Yeah - financial risks aside. It just seems difficult to do this without major disruptions to family life as I am a part of it. Of course, you can hire as many people as you need (if you have the means) to resolve the logistical problem. Bu

I think this is the right point, but it's tough. People don't like to say "no" or "can't do it in that timeline" and other permutations of these statements. If you can't even challenge or disagree wit

Honest question: do people with young kids do these jobs well, or at all? I'm sure the answer is sometimes, yes. But, as a 41-yr-old father of two kids (6, 2) and a wife in PE, the pace and stress strike me as contradictory to being pr

Tons of cars in my suburb. You might mean rural areas?

It's a very interesting point. I am attempting (recently) to cut some chemicals and processed things from my house. Examples: using glass as much as I can, instead of plastic. Trying to use more local fresh ingredients in my cooking. B

As in our addiction as consumers to all things plastic for convenience and other reasons?

I'd love to hear where or if you think there is an obvious balancing point between shelf-stable and not in solid food? I've thought of making my own protein bars, as I work out quite a bit and would prefer understanding exactly wh

Right. I wasn't making a point about environmental impacts, for example. I know some folks see that as the main differentiator (that I understand). My point was just to draw a distinction between what seems more "processed" v

> I'm quite confident that an Impossible Burger is healthier along some dimensions, and a beef burger healthier along others. Agree! And I was quite deliberate in not making that point in my statement.

by grvdrm 2y ago
I determine the difference with this simple model: 1. It's processed if the list of ingredients spans a sizable portion of the package or label. 2. It's less (or not) processed if the list of ingredients is quite small. The line b

by grvdrm 2y ago
Well said. The example that popped into my head was this: Impossible Burger is "healthier" than regular beef burger. Health aside, these sorts of conclusions (I'm guilty too) say nothing about how processed or not something i

I agree with your anecdote but on an even shorter scale. Normal running. I’m in a running club that spans casual runners to 5x per year marathoners. Most of the folks running more look, well, aged.

This is me! Wife, kids, solid insurance career. But I quit to join a start up in cybersecurity because I was too curious not to give it a shot. Unfortunately just recently laid off but I don’t look back and regret the decision. And now I ca

Let me add: you never need to be in awe of someone who treats anyone else like garbage - whether they are 20 or 60. I’m just out an experience with a 49 year old founder/CEO. Will be looking for all signs of garbage in future opportuni

This reminds me: some of the best "therapy" is to react to something in a draft email (with no recipient), then close it, walk away. Come back at some point and see if what you wrote makes any sense, needs to be communicated, or s

For data or was it the standard “use responsibly” message?

Of course, right? It’s hard to see it any other way.

I feel you. In a similar experience now. Valuation (I’m told) depends on ARR. Company not really set up to generate meaningful ARR from its core business. I keep hearing “it will get better” but as far as I see, the problem is squarely at t

Honest question: what do you mean by weird?

I was going to quote a couple specific things in your reply but after re-reading it all resonates. Completely agree with you. More of my conversations are one-way than not. It's uncomfortable when you get part way through a conversatio

This was my fear as well. Also, the site loaded tons of ads in my face. Love the idea, can’t use this version of it.
