    I use Feeder, but still end up doom scrolling reddit way too to often. Discovery is the hard part for me, and I don't spend much time trying to find good content. For me, this is t…

    One thing I remember from his book is that the 747 was initially of secondary importance within Boeing, behind the SST. This wasn't Boeing's flagship, so to speak, until SST was ca…
