It’s the threaded conversations that sales people have with themselves, marked as important by gmail, that drives me mad. “Hi Mark, Just wanted to close the loop today and see if it made sense for us to connect.” “Hi Mark, I hope you are ha

I wonder if a similar approach can be used for Von Hippel Landau. “ Mutations in the VHL gene cause von Hippel-Lindau syndrome. The VHL gene is a tumor suppressor gene, which means it keeps cells from growing and dividing too rapidly or in

Because most people don’t like to be told to be in a certain place for a certain amount of time from where they can not leave. There’s another name for this situation.

In case the vendor is here. I’m guessing cart abandonment numbers are pretty bad. You’re blanking the entire order form when a user checks the box for different billing address. Chrome on iPhone.

So interesting to see this thread. I carefully curate and limit my intake and am intensely aware of the anger economy news organizations have built to drive engagement. Glad to hear others are avoiding being a product and are staying health

Not my whole life but stuff I’ve discovered: Realizing that sitting for 8 to 12 hours per day coding is catastrophic for my health. Understanding the incredibly high and hidden cost of conflict and anger. Films romanticize fighting the good
