We don't have to give birth. Being self reliant is thus our cross to bear.

In my opinion, you are interpreting it incorrectly. Look from their perspective. "My man is so smart, competent and emotionally stable. I can rely on him for anything!" "Oh no he's crying, does this mean our family won&#

It wasn't a ruse. People genuinely liked the app BUT he had a manufactured pr push. It wasn't organic.

Very sparse. You'll have to piece it together through interviews he gave around that time. His opsec is good but not good enough.

OK

No, I was just obsessed with how he did it, so I swallowed every piece of info I could've until it was clear. It was manufactured, which is the best approach.

Peldi (Balsamiq) did this well, but in reality it was all pretend. He pretended like had this massive groundswell of people who loved his app but it was an incredibly well-executed PR campaign and he deserves mad props for it. He didn'

"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." This is how I exercise that skill. I listen to science, sociology, religion, conspiracy theories, relationship dynamics, etc. Sometimes,

You are right, I am equating age with being inflexible and as an old man myself, I have to fight to retain my flexibility in all respects. So, replace "old" with "inflexible" and you get the gist. In general, "old&q

Do you really go through life thinking of reasons why you shouldn't do a thing? How about "if X did it, I can too." Which way would you prefer to live?

YouTube is the best invention in modern history. While working I can passively listen to thousands of ideas in a year often curated by my interests automatically. We don't teach people how to use these things well but we should.

If you did not buy Tesla at the absolute bottom in 2000-whatever, could you still have been a multi-millionaire? So why do you need to "be first"?
