Yep, calculator on my phone. This is much easier :D

It’s not, was just a fun weekend app to work on

All my fav songs is music I discovered in my 30s

I'm VERY interested in using your service and would be happy to pay if it's good.

I'm never going to try if you ask for my CC up front though. Sorry.

Ugh, the whole world is not having summer vacation... It's not even a thing outside the US

I'm working an a product doing just that. MVP should be ready by end June

I want an app like Google translate where I can point my camera at cuneiform and have it translate it into a modern language. That would be amazing

There are thousands of tablets that need to be translated still, so this would be really useful as a starting point

It's low interest rates that weren't sustainable. And that's becoming apparent

He DID go swimming around the ocean depths, as best a middle class, middle aged writer could.

Look up his book Underworld

Ray Dalio is watching

Please. All they had to do was just a little real due diligence.

I'd expect a fund like Sequoia to at least look at financials. Or corp structure and governance.

But apparently not.

Check what Croatian tax authorities think of controlled foreign corporations(cfc's).

Most countries don't allow you to just expatriate income to skip taxes while still living in your local country.

Warren Buffett discussed this in his 2007 letter to shareholders Buffett says that "90% of your job as a director is having the right CEO."

"There is a natural tendency for people with big egos and big motors who get to be CEOs who like to do big things and to become bigger spending other people's money. Normally, when big deals come along [for approval] management has already made the deal anyway, they have investment bankers there that will go through a little ritual - I've never seen one come in and do a presentation which says it's a dumb idea! They know what the answer is supposed to be, and it becomes a little game."

Probably wanted to degrade user experience enough to make users just go to Apple, but not enough to attract regulator attention.

Most people create little mental boxes to imprison themselves in.

Try more crazy things, you'd be surprised how often it can work out.

It's spring already here in South Africa. It's a bit early. Not a lot, but enough to notice

You called? XD

In South Africa "guys" is gender neutral too.

I wish the Americans can keep their weird culture war within their own borders.

And then there's Dave Grohl. Not quite popular anymore but rocking harder than even with creative new songs.

I wish I could upvote you twice.

This is insane. Really. Banning languages now? Are we cancelling cultures next?

Can newer plants be bombed? Can they be abandoned?

Not me, but this seems to be a common issue.

It's still fun!

I explored this idea last year in a blog post

And Tom Segura & Christina Pazsitzky? Wot?

Lex mentioned it in one of his recent ones, I can't recall which one, sorry

Afaik both him and Lex Fridman tried to get Fouci on. He either declined or wanted to limit it to 15m

Three key things:

* viewing a session as a vacation of the mind and giving yourself permission to let go of pressing life matters for a bit

* reframing thoughts like "how much time is left?" as being part of the passing mental landscape which can be noted and let go

* realizing there are stages in a session, ie settling, concentrating, spreading awareness, watching and such.
