I don't really agree with the first paragraph based on my personal experience with AllTrails. I think people pay for these apps for a variety of reasons. If all you want to do is look at a trail, I'm sure you can do that for free.

Anecdotally, some of the THC-A flower I’ve tried wasn’t anything like what you’re describing in terms of taste/aftermath, but does seem to stress the particle filter on my Storz & Bickel Mighty. I suspect this has a lot to do with

Not only is this a counterpoint, but the outrage never made sense to begin with, IMO. It’s so easy to imagine the kinds of harm a disgruntled employee can cause with the right access that it’s hard to imagine why anyone would be upset at an

My recommendation after 20 years or so in tech: if you can, take a sabbatical that’s long enough to completely reset, and then re-assess. Travel, read, try stuff, do personal projects, do nothing for awhile. I started a sabbatical two years
