My two cents: make it easier for people to see know what it is. I'm not entirely sure from a brief scan - is it team wiki software? Is it sorta like trello cards but for archival/searchable org information? As someone who is actua

Lots of thoughts here but I'm at a loss. He seemed in good spirits right until the end — we should all hope for that. JPB was a true artist and technologist. His art was inspired by the past and his policy by the future.

This is fascinating. It's almost a forcing function to prevent overwork and burnout. Imagine if the lights were on and it was 72 degrees, 60% humidity, 24/7 — the plants wouldn't thrive.

I don't disagree. Boulder does well by the people who can afford to live here but seemingly (I'm still new) does little to offer affordable options. You go around Boulder and it doesn't feel like a city — this is part of the

I live in Boulder and attribute much of the quality of life here to walkable (and bikeable) streets. We have hundreds of miles of multi-use paths that are used extensively for getting around and for recreation. Our main road downtown has a

Generally good advice but especially relevant here: pack a “bug out bag” which has everything you need if you need to leave at a moment’s notice. Here’s the guide I’ve followed: https://theprepared.com/guides/emergency-

The first 2/3 of this book is exhilarating, revealing and inspiring. If you are interested in Bruce Springsteen, rock and roll music, or maniacal struggle, it's essential reading. The last 1/3 is a (relatively) smooth ride. L

I think you should only call a program an accelerator if they invest at the start in all participants. Otherwise a word like incubator or competition probably makes more sense.

My understanding is that people don't like the "mealy" taste of many supermarket tomatoes. The reason they develop this taste is that they are picked prematurely so they can ripen in transit. Tomatoes are meant to ripen on th
