If women wanted bigger pockets, you could make a lot of money selling them pants with bigger pockets. But everyone who tries that fails. Women would theoretically like bigger pockets, but they care more about the fitting and look of the pan

Liberal arts mindset has been that Marcus Aurelius is a fascist. Stoicism is right-coded and tech-coded and has been for the last decade. I think you're right in terms of what liberal arts SHOULD be, but it's been diverted badly f

During the great recession I went to the Kodak offices that were shutting down. I bought 4 aerons for $25 each, but could only fit 2 in my car. Fortunately, I sold 2 to a guy in the parking lot for $40 so my chairs were almost free.
