When things got stressful at work I started smoking cannabis occasionally. It was really helpful to my overall mental well-being. It was great for stress, and made me feel wonderful, and it severely enhanced the creative part of my mind.

Watching traffic in downtown SF is a game of seeing if the total sum of non-Prius cars outnumber the Priuses or not.

Anecdotal, but: my hometown of Orinda is a good bellweather; when the Prius first came out, the small downtown area felt like 1/3rd of the cars were Prii. In the past couple years, every time I visit I see many, many Teslas. It's

I thing a larger factor is the Mormon Church/Mormon population. Utah has some strangely progressive economic policies like housing-first solutions to homelessness. Utah is a red state for sure, especially when it comes to social polici

When working in the [react] ecosystem I feel like I'm constantly trying to couple together chains that call functions on functions on objects. This is a very good explanation of how I feel as well. At work I use React, bu
