Wildbit has sold the family business work-for-other-reasons-than-monetary-renumeration trope for a couple of decades. They've had some great products like Beanstalk and Deploybot and some total follies like Converyor. Employees had no

I had dinner with two psychiatrists who are working in this field both with adults as well as one of them who is doing work in paediatric psychiatry. They have both taken LSD, Psilocybin and ketamine as part of their work so they would be a

I've used high intensity cardio to manage pretty much any mental health issues I've flirted with over the years. (for me, mostly issues with focus, anxiety). I am almost 40 now and I do see it seems to be diminishing in terms of e

I think the biggest issue there would be financing. Most fertilizer terms are COD but you don't realize any cash in farming until you deliver the crop (and for some crops, payment terms aren't great). I think there could be a situ

Just here to share that if you haven't tried Apple Music for its lossless and Dolby Atmos sound quality then you really, really, should. Apple Music does not have a great UI but it is definitely worth the trade off. Tidal sounds great,

I love food. I never want to sit down to eat and have to worry, restrict, or wonder about what I am eating. I am also not exactly great at staying disciplined in the face of a complex plan. I'd much rather a strategy that is easy to un

I once flew in to the Bay Area from Europe for several meetings, but the most important one was with a team at Google. We were trying to finalize a deal and they really needed to be on board. I arrived, checked in and was shown to a meeting

For a closed loop system, yes. I think that would be the minimum (6000 sq ft house) at 250ft depths.

The smartest defence thinkers I know and/or follow (I worked in the space for a few years, enough to know I didn't want to be there but I did meet some really sharp people) have all switched to a pretty cautious tone in the last f

You have to make sure it's straight, drop sheathing in to the hole, and then cap it if it isn't going to be used right away. More importantly, geothermal/ground source is rarely 1 well either, in our case it was 8.

We have a ground source heat pump and one summer we were away and did not use out air conditioning that year much at all. Mid winter our return loop temperatures (the glycol being brought in to our heat pump after circulating in the ground)

It seems that much of the Ukrainian cellular network has been left up. No jamming, no outright bombing (at least that is being reported) and the country's internet connections have been left intact. We have to consider that this is ver

I recently worked at a company that adopted Notion when it was a startup but has now grown to 800'ish people. I can say for certain that Notion does not scale. The primary issue is very straightforward, but one that plagues so many com

I actually thought the landing page was pretty good. It describes the product reasonably well and is very clear about "why pick us". I agree because of the crowded market it is in it needs a very comprehensive comparison section t

They definitely were not doing last mile delivery themselves. They use an outsourced delivery company. Those vans you saw with their logos on them were just part of that deal.

yes. It is probably one of the worst values in the entire automotive industry. They always have this "buy now, the price will go up later!" but I had to ask myself: how much can the price go up? It's not going to be a $20,000
