New Amazon dark UX pattern: you could get it for free tomorrow, but we will make the one tap checkout flow use slower shipping. We will make you tap around a lot more to actually exercise your privileges.

As I continue to lean hard on an agent fleet to help me wrangle a million things, I find that sometimes it is helpful to move around. I'll bring my desk to stand and put the music on and dance. Or I will sit outside in the sunshine with my phone. 🌞 Mix it up!

Finally figured out how to wash gym clothes. Don't: use hot water, steam, more scented detergent, pre-wash or dryer sheets. Washer: Dirty Labs Bio Enzyme Detergent + Booster, warm, active wear cycle, extra rinse. Dryer: low temp, less dry, wool dryer balls instead of sheets.

I wonder if the future of journalism might look less like long-form textual articles with stock photos interspersed and a lot more like rich interactive graphics that help people understand complex issues and nuance/tradeoffs.

Every problem that takes more than 20 years to solve is an education problem, because it will take well-educated people to solve that problem. You want a stable and peaceful democracy? You want plentiful fusion power? You want bases on Mars? Cure cancer? Educate the kids.

The last 50y of programming has built inefficient software, excused by increasingly powerful hardware. I have to wonder if AI optimization could enable a great harvest of efficiency and performance improvements that just weren't worth the human expertise previously.

Elon Musk flips a vehicle upside down and everyone claps and cheers. But when I do it, suddenly I'm "recklessly endangering children" and "unfit to be a school bus driver".

I would love to see a startup target moving the needle on these. NO, NOT PLAYING VIDEO GAMES.

After an hour and twenty minutes of @united chat, they conclude that I have to call and wait on hold because they can't help me on chat.

Yes you probably should be supplementing with creatine monohydrate
This new creatine study is insane. People who never trained took 10g of creatine a day and gained more lean tissue (2.43 lbs) than people who were lifting 3x a week with no creatine (0.31 lbs). Here's the breakdown: (1/18)
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The 2.43 lb was DXA “lean mass,” not 2.43 lb of muscle. Creatine increases intracellular water, which DXA counts as lean tissue. The study didn’t measure hypertrophy, and exercise vs no-exercise wasn’t randomized. Does not show creatine beats lifting. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
