When I worked in cybersecurity I had a similar realization. No one cared about security posture. They cared about insurance policies. People hired us to shift blame instead of improve security posture. this is not terribly different

Yes, but... They also have one of the most profitable business models the world has ever seen. Their RPE (revenue per employee) is roughly $1mm and growing at a 50% YoY rate... They heavily use technology as leverage for insane margin growt

Yea totally. I am an owner and I've been fighting with the board for 3 years over failure to hold elections, and inconsistent treatment of members / rules. I have a lawyer, have won my first battle already but it cost me $6k out o

This is so endearing. I've been at odds with my HOA [board] since I moved in and its a decades long tale of my community where everyone is treated poorly by our HOA. I've asked the board for block parties annually, and events semi

Is this true? I know we all want to hate on Boeing for obvious reasons, but they did get a manned crew to space, without blowing anyone up...

Not really. I feel tired during the day sometimes but way less than when I used to work in an office every day. Usually a quick walk shakes it off if I have no cardio planned. I think I’m mostly trying to understand what I can and cannot co

This is a great recommendation -- I dont really need caffeine but its a ritual I adore. I can definitely give it up so I think its where I can start. Thank you!

Stress is hard measure so I don't have a way to say I am more or less stressed than normal. As another poster asked -- I have had tons of trauma but also put work in to overcome it. I have a great, healthy life. I always work hard to q

I've been going down this rabbit hole for a while and don't have any conclusive answers. I have always slept 7.5 hours in my adult life. I wake up a couple times a night briefly (and usually recall 1-2 time a night that it happens

I’m an avid snowboarder and mountain biker and live in a Colorado ski town. I had called detection and crash detection enabled on my phone and watch since it came out. I was thrilled when I took a bad spill over the bars of my mountain bike

No and candidly I mishandled the entire shutdown. As a solo founder, my company going insolvent really put me in a dark place. I’m happy to talk about it now though. I think the problem was twofold. We were trying to raise during a tumultuo

both GPS and radio time receivers are very expensive. LED bulbs are a commodity product and thus have little room for margin. Our low power clock + super cap added $1.25 of BOM which translates to $2.50-$3 of cost to the user. Led bulbs at

If you ask me I dont think average users will ever pay for a solution to this problem. People are simply not aware that their blue-heavy LED lights either cause harm to their sleep schedule or simply feel clinical at night. I live in a very

Yea great question. The bulbs were provisioned via an iOS app and there was a Wifi bulb sold that had a speaker in it (part of our pivot towards more marketable products) The bulbs could have been updated either by A) having a wifi bulb tha

I started a company to pursue circadian lighting (called Twist) and sadly pivoted away from it as a core value proposition because of weak reception from the market. I feel we were 20 years too early (we shut down about 5 years ago). Our te

I have described this world to a few people in my life recently, and look back on it very fondly. Everyone was anonymous, everyone was crazy motivated, and it was a wild west of credit card theft, software theft, and more. I wrote a few pro
