I've tried a number of different approaches and have found that my sweet spot is coffee made from really great beans in a drip machine that turns on at a set time. I use a burr grinder but it's not a real game-changer. The beans m

I can only attest to back surgery being very, very risky and yet pushed as the obvious answer to severe back pain. An acquaintance of mine had failed surgery for a pinched nerve and his life went downhill fast.

“ audio plays barely exist nowadays in English” The BBC Radio iPlayer app I use almost daily is full of radio plays. It’s definitely a British thing.

This is how I (and perhaps others) console myself for not buying at all. With the capital and risk appetite I had at the time, I would have made a nice five-figure profit before selling thinking 'this is the top, for sure'.

I'm very much a dilettante but a piano teacher taught me a few boogie woogie songs when I was in middle school. That planted a seed that has turned into a lifelong love for the music of New Orleans, which is essentially the source and

My small family fled NYC and have landed in a part of coastal New England that was last trendy with your parents and/or grandparents, especially if your ancestors came over on the Mayflower. Not as wildly affordable as other options bu

Lenders make money on origination (closing a loan) not servicing (interest). So there is a strong motivation to originate more loans and sell them quickly. In a bad enough environment the pressure will be to make as much money before the sh

The Ghost CEO did precisely the wrong thing. But anyone who has had to support thousands of customers can spot this customer as toxic. The irony here is that the toxic customer gave the CEO the solution: restrict functionality so users don’

I recently got back onto Instagram for family photos and I still have no idea, or real interest in learning, what stories are. I'm too busy fuming at the avalanche of sponsored posts. It's an utter train wreck.

Why would a recipe that features off-topic content rank higher than one that is just the recipe? I've thought that the reason recipes are hell on the internet is to need to make space for display ads, e.g. putting the content in slides

As a runner who only runs on trails (e.g. not on pavement) I make a point of asking other runners about places to run before I visit a new town. I tend to get great advice and the benefit is that I often meet people to follow on Strava, whe

I find that busting my ass to the same workout that I did when I was a dozen years younger has a certain charm. Also, I get to imagine how old and out of shape the people in the video are (excepting Tony Horton, of course).

I downloaded the best BeachBody videos and have them available on my phone, and I can play them on my TV. I have some weights and bands and a pull-up bar. They are dated, but that's part of the charm, and they are actually very, very g

I’m less of a fan. While novel, they are cloying. I long for the days when my college friends would bring me bottles of Augustiner in their suitcase when they came to visit. Absolutely boring. Utterly perfect.

Some of what Gatsby is doing is approaching a no-code way of building highly performant sites. https://blocks-ui.com So with that, Wix & Squarespace become comparable models. Hypothetically.

I agree with you. My comment was meant as a reflection of what I imagine Gatsby's thinking to be. I am really impressed with the technology but quite baffled by the business model at a $200M valuation.

The Gatsby model is Wordpress. Be the default choice, be open source, run a thriving hosting business and empower a huge economy around theming and extending your main product. The question is whether that model is repeatable.
