My son was in this program and got some wonderful books. When he aged out he got a nice note encouraging him to keep learning. Great program. Our current billionaire class could learn a lot.
Thanks for sharing that story
It is my dream to someday travel to St. Helena and Tristan da Cunha.
This is the sad reality. The education provided is based on an industrial revolution era theory of the worker as well. I’m not sure what a better alternative is.
Great analysis. I think there must be even more going on in the comments section. There are a lot of shenanigans especially on “controversial” topics.
Right. What these luminaries mean is being driven to the airport and the flying business class (or on a pj) to your way to next totally frivolous destination.
If you have a family and are not already independently wealthy you will be enjoying very few of those. In my experience.
The corruption is bad enough at the local level. I can’t even fathom how much theft is going on at the state and federal level. It’s one of the more frustrating things to see how much money you are paying into the…
Will have to give this a watch after the kids go to bed. I like a lot of Casey’s views even if I don’t agree with them.
I am just having a hard time with all this AI stuff. The other day I got some feedback on one of the products I own. It was a small tweak to an anchor tag to add a title and change the color for just that element. I…
Notability is arguably even more subjective than popularity.
This happened to me back in college. I authored a couple pages for some bands that I was in to, probably spent weeks pulling together history, lineup, albums, eps, etc. only to have them deleted unceremoniously with no…
If you like this kind of stuff go and look up videos on the Rolls Royce Crecy engine from WWII. Absolutely insane engineering that died due the dawn of jet propulsion.
We had twins after having a singleton during covid. We invested in 4 big hepa air filters and placed one in each bedroom. I think it significantly reduced the amount of illnesses we faced in the first year if the twins…
For my family of 5 w/ school age children I would say that is a pretty reasonable estimate, maybe even a bit low for us. There are levels of “sick” though and I would say for us most respiratory illnesses are very mild…
I really don’t get the bellyaching about the price. They are going to sell as many of these as they can make, so there is no sense in subsidizing the price. Maybe in the future they will, especially if Windows continues…
Soon people will be taking proctored IQ tests just to be allowed to submit a resume.
It’s absolutely atrocious in the Fortune 500 tech sector. Multiple times a day I see people debating each other on teams about things they know nothing about and it’s obvious that it is just copilot v copilot. Crazy.
I have filled out census forms in the past and it was not a big imposition. During the last census I had supposed census workers showing up at my home multiple times and pushily asking for an in person interview. I told…
The real estate up for auction is actually insane. My conception of a "HUD home" is completely shattered.
Input: I updated a README Output: I’m thrilled to share that I’ve just optimized our project’s core documentation to enhance clarity and streamline onboarding for the entire team. Documentation is the backbone of…
It is a very mixed bag. I have enjoyed using opus 4.5 and 4.6 to add functionality to existing medium complexity codebases. It’s great for green field scripts and small POCs. I absolutely cannot stand reviewing the…
I remember being pretty skeptical of “dockerizing” applications when it first becamee popular. But I’ve come around to it, if for no other reason than it provided an easily understandable concept which anyone could…
Can you imagine if Apple’s software was on the same level as their hardware?
It’s been posted many times, I think mostly due to it’s association to Mitchell Hashimoto. It’s left as an exercise the reader to determine why this is important.
