I just bought a Toyota at MSRP last week. I was considering waiting a little longer, glad I did not.

The Carvana UX is smart and coercive. You get a (possibly artificial) time block to buy the car, which I’m sure drives conversions.

My brother in law drove a new trick across the country for eight months, pulling an RV, then sold it for $5k more than he paid for it. To a dealer, who planned to raise the price and resell it. You’d be foolish to factor this into any busin

I admit that I was thinking of some armchair diagnoses while watching this interview of Lee Scratch Perry, a man who has probably smoked more weed than most: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czf9nZFBmnw

Anecdotally, half a joint of weed purchased from a legal, recreational shop is enough to get a dozen people stoned into the ground, unless they are regular users of the stuff.

What I was remarking on was that there was a certain subset of the 'back to school' cohort, in my day, who were basically reinventing their life, and often post-divorce.

I went to Columbia. Many reasons folks wind up in General Studies. Two common ones are you didn’t get into good schools but your dad is both loaded and encouraging that a Columbia degree is worth it. Another is you’re between 40 and 60 and

It's also one of the easiest to brew yourself, even an extract kit produces really awesome results.

I go to great lengths to anonymize myself on Instagram (futile, but I do what I can), and as a result I get what I guess are 'standard' ads: - gun modification products - survival stuff: knives, para cord etc. - conservative &#x27

Having lived in Bavaria for years, and drunk beer for many more, I am of the opinion that nothing beats sub-6% helles, pilsner, or hefeweißen. Hops and alcohol are like white pepper - great but just a little too much ruins the recipe.

Another consideration is the goodwill this will create with your customers, increasing their tendency to promote you. This matters more when your default mode is single-player than when your default mode is corporate buy-in.

I disagree. An app like this has to mail reviewing all of my notes and finding things. I think exporting todos and focusing on highlights is smart - that’s all you really truly need in the end. But if I put notes in I expect them to be ther

Consider that if you were selling an email product customers like this would demand local storage for that too. The market for people and large companies who have already gone full Google Apps is huge. Focus there.

No, the article contains rather good advice, and from a range of opinions. My own advice is to follow the authors example: if your actual dream is something with lottery-like odds, find a way to build a career in an adjacent field to which

Hand to heart I’ve had more Ubers not show up (more than 5) than I did car services over several decades of NYC living. Worse they claimed I didn’t show up.

> Low profit routes were pretty much impossible to get pre-Uber. In cities, that's absurd - car services existed for decades serving just this part of the market, and they let you schedule in advance! In the suburbs and exurbs, prob

This is basically turning Dropbox offices into WeWork spaces, overlooking the fact that actually working in such an environment is way overrated.

I’m using Agenda (Mac app) and still learning how to make the best use of it but I really like that it’s built around projects, daily agendas and notes tied to meetings. The UX is imperfect but the structure is proving useful to me. It’s ha

I'm using Agenda app and I find search and browsing to be rather difficult compared to Bear. Perhaps the 1-to-1 connection to calendar events makes it worth it - that's what made me switch.
