My partner is now in private practice, but started in community mental health coming out of her social work program. Unsurprisingly, for those most in need, like the children with …

The MSRP for these things was never competitive, but $15-20k in the used market for a carbon monocoque electric go-kart? Sign me up.

Those column-mounted paddle shifters also span a large radius on both sides, which combined with their quick steering ratio makes them effectively available at all times aside from…

Historically French Touch was interchangeable with French House, dating back to late 90s origins (Daft Punk et. al.). IMO what Spotify calls New French Touch isn't really a genre u…

This is why I love F1. Over 20 people working the pit stop, and the driver hitting his marks perfectly, literally braking at the last possible moment to maximize speed up to the pi…

I've been looking into transparent windshield films to reduce glare for this reason.

I for one love that BMW built the catalytic converters into the exhaust manifolds on my car, meaning that the only CARB-viable route outside of gambling on used units is a $10k rep…

I was really surprised when the most disappointing feature of my 14 Pro was the camera. The overprocessing is horrendous in low light, and the constant switching between lenses is …

GP didn't state that it was the sole reason for tipping the election. Clinton dropping the ball, Comey etc. are events I can live with even if I didn't like the result. But a forei…

I was enjoying the first few days and went on a campaign to mute as many of these low quality accounts that had been ported in from Instagram as possible. Then I just got bored, an…

Since I was diagnosed with ADHD last year I've been looking for other lenses to understand my own complex outside of a strictly genetic component. Self therapy, although I could pr…

That is one hell of a false equivalence after we just saw what came out of the Dominion lawsuit / settlement.

I'd rather a more conservative approach than copy+pasting the vitriol and polarization of Twitter onto a new platform. And it's a smart move to make it friendlier to users who were…

Threads accounts are linked to Instagram accounts, so the same verification standards should apply. If there's one underrated thing Meta will do better than Twitter here, it's cut …

My question is – what trade secrets does Twitter even have that Meta didn't already have the existing infrastructure for, or competency to build themselves (probably better)?

I noticed this with the base experience after auto-following all my Instagram follows. But what isn't in the app yet is a "trending" / "recommended" section, which I imagine is rea…

If only a small % of Meta's users start using the app, it'll quickly become an audience too big to ignore. Anyone with Twitter clout will have to maintain a presence there, and bei…

Exactly. We've already seen the damage that foreign manipulation can cause when they're exploiting the cracks of FB, Twitter, etc. It doesn't take much imagination to think about w…

I'm assuming this was slightly in jest, but paying yourself is all about free cash flow when you're bootstrapped, fronting inventory and growing. And in practice, with hard goods t…
