Well, alright. I don’t use the word “embrace” with him in any case.

He’s not too convinced at first. But most of the time he ends up with something fun. Which I use as an example the next time he says That he’s bored. As a single child he’s already used to spend some time alone. So it’s relatively rare tha

One of the interesting points in the article is: “embrace the boredom”. That’s what I tell my 7-yo repeatedly. Boredom makes you more creative.

Their iOS reading app is pretty good and allows offline downloading of books. I use it regularly.

I quite like it. For a continuous-learning junkie like me having access to all the books and videos is amazing value for the price.

I heavily used IRC in the early and mid 90s. Glad to see that it’s alive and kicking. Happy 30th!

Ah! Almost my entire ~5 mile (each way) is on bike paths. But audiobooks are definitely different than music. Much easier to hear around as there's only a single person speaking instead of various continuous channels.

It's not always possible, but commuting by bicycle is great. Burning extra calories and listening to audio books (continuous learning) make the commute a productive time for me.

I agree with these points. On the other hand, defeatist attitude is not going to help anyone. Reversing the climate change may be the moonshot, but unless we have an objective we cannot convince anyone outside the "greeny-lefty" m

Interesting idea, but I think there's a glitch. When I look at where I live and set 45mins, what I get is not fully covered by what I get for 50 mins. But if a place is within my 45min car ride, I would expect that place to be included
