Well stated. I read Nurture Shock before my kids were born. One of its main arguments is to praise effort rather than natural abilities ("you worked hard" rather than "you're smart"). Being one who naturally withholds…
Same for me. It came recommended by my upright bass teacher. I used to transcribe all songs that way. Recently, I've been lazy and learn new songs by watching players on YouTube.
Back in August, the Odd Lots Podcast had a good show about speculation in hazelnuts. As I recall, Ferrero buys like 25% of the world's hazelnut supply.
My neighborhood school issues Chromebooks to all kids starting in sixth grade. It's been an interesting, um, pedagogical experiment. In my kid's friend group (now 7th grade), the usage is all over the map. Some kids…

I cut off the sleeve of an old fleece pullover. Works great as night cap and eye cover. (I previously used a sleep mask bought on Amazon but found it slipped off too often. Also, the straps irritated my ears.)
