I agree. In Austin, Montessori preschools tend to be more rigid and doctrinaire. I don’t know if this is true everywhere, but they also tend to have disproportionately high representation of immigrant families. My impression, based on 8 yea

Reading this account made me think of a paper I read in grad school about the Mann Gulch fire and how quickly one’s ability to make sense of the situation unravels. https://www.cs.unibo.it/~ruffino/Letture%20TDPC/

If you have any capital saved, maybe it’s time to go on QuietLight or another site and buy a small SaaS company with an SBA loan and work for yourself.

Wait, doesn’t Austin have a billboard ban? There are some billboards but they’re grandfathered in and cannot be rebuilt if they fall over. https://www.kut.org/austin/2022-04-21/advertising-companies-...

Texas only adds more clean generation because it’s way less capital intensive than building a natural gas or coal plant. Those plants require $500M+ minimum and the returns just aren’t that great. My wife is an energy attorney in Texas and

I’m so glad I’m not alone in noticing this “provider” bs. Peel back the creepy Orwellian doublespeak and all you find is cynical ploy to save money by creating a false equivalence of doctors’ work with non-doctors. The health care industry

Really great job. Whether it’s legal for customers to share this info or not is really a gray area. If the data is only shared in an aggregate fashion, I doubt they can do much without a subpoena. And then what? Sue the website? Sorry, no.

The power of stories like this never fails to humble me. There are countless (less dramatic) incidents like this in every life. Your experience brings them back into focus.

Can’t speak for OP but I moved to Exploratory.io. And the beauty of it is, it’s a GUI for R so you can export your transformation steps to R if needed.

They cost $50-70 each on Amazon or ULine. Awesome for stackable storage. With some plywood and casters, you can easily stack 6-8 tall in the garage and move them around with ease. Highly recommend.

I bought Webvan stock on their IPO day. Lost around $5k. (I was 22). Amazing service. Terrible business model: boil the ocean, premature scale, hire the head of Andersen Consulting as CEO. Every bad, nonsensical decision. And yet, the core

This 2008 article in Wired does a good job of explaining how aggregation, in theory, enables bundled mortgages to create a 1+1=3 situation: https://www.wired.com/2009/02/wp-quant/ Except the model was flawed

I founded a startup. We raised $2.5M, not all at once. We banked at SVB. It sucked. Subpar online tools. $200/mo “analysis fee,” never once had a “relationship” with anyone. Maybe we were never big enough to be relevant. That’s fair. M

As a solo developer, I guess I’m going to start tracking how fast I type and the size of my code commits each day, and that, my dear IRS friend, is the only part of my day I spent “developing software.” The reality is that even if you hire

Reading this was hard because having failed a few years ago, after 7 years and $3m raised for a B2B content marketing startup, it all rings so true. We hired a VP of Sales (who was previously VP of Sales at a public company) when we had $20

I’m glad you didn’t have any problems getting reservations. That wasn’t my experience. Fwiw, I mainly fly fish. I need to be in by 8am so I can hike to a high lake and get 3-4 hrs of fishing before the storm clouds roll in. It’s a different

No, it’s illegal to resell a reservation. I posted a joke scalper ad on Craigslist (forgot to take it down) for a national park reservation (this was right after they were introduced and I was salty about it) and they got a grand jury subp

It’s a nightmare for booking timed entry reservations. Rocky Mountain National Park opens reservations on the 1st of each summer month for the upcoming month and the site is just slammed. You click a reservation time, spin spin spin, then e
