   Fwiw, I live in California as well, Bay Area specifically. My elementary school kid walks ~2/3mi from school (with a friend) and my middle schooler bikes a few miles to school solo. So do many of their friends. It’s the norm in my neig

   I say this a bit loosely, but Lower Decks is best new Star Trek since DS9. They not only capture Trek, but do it with a silly genre (yes, Orville proved this out first). My problem with Disco/etc is the extreme over indexing on a singu

    Thanks. I was wondering if there was a name for this after my teenage kids were rather underwhelmed by the first Matrix film the other night—especially the Bullet Time sequences.

    Brings to mind a convo about coffee a few years back. A friend was quite surprised I owned a scale accurate to the tenth of a gram just for dosing coffee beans when I could just use a super accurate scoop instead. I left it at that, and di

    Yup. Even after adjusting grind to account for age, i found 2 weeks to be cutoff for espresso out of my Silvia. I do pretty much only pour overs these days though, and find I need to adjust brew temp after around 8-9 day range. However, aft

    Too many orgs conflate communication and collaboration. The heavy handed push for “Collaboration” always seems to stem from folks with anxiety around feeling left out, and leadership who is equally disconnected. E.g. “I’m hearing you’re not
