I like this a lot. Did you get that from somewhere, or did you come up with it on your own. It's captures the spirit of my metrics philosophy really well.

It took a long time to get to where I am. It's like a personal operating system. Over many years, tons of little tweaks and a few tool changes got it to where it is right now. Key thing is to ask yourself what you want: - plan your day

You're right. There are more than two categories of gender. 1/(number of categories) works if the categories are the same size. They are not the same size. Male and female cover a vast majority of cases. What percentage would all

My youngest daughter learned to ride a bike recently. It's another peak experience moment for me! The glint of pride and accomplishment in her eyes. The wide grin on her face. The joy in my heart. And... the sadness that this is the la

Smart phone scanning apps are incredible. I’ve ditched a flatbed years ago and solely rely on my iPhone. It works like magic. The quality is good-to-great, and it fits well with my workflow. Worth the ten bucks or so investment.
