    My short take is that people who want to get married, get married. My longer take is: Many of my single friends (mostly the women) have a hard time differentiating between filtering criteria and selection criteria. It's important to SELECT for values / goals / competency, etc.

    Consider this my good deed of the day: Back in 2008 two bodybuilders were arguing on the Internet about how many days are in a week. It is one of the greatest Internet threads of all time. If you haven't read it, stop what you are doing and read it: forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php…

    Look, all Parler has to do is get a datacenter, lay down miles of fiber, set up peering, buy a ton of servers, build an IaaS stack, add a PaaS layer, port their app, and they are up and online. Easy.

    The Kumon math logo never fails to make me laugh. It’s exactly the kind of face a kid would make who has to go to Kumon.

    100% of current hospitalized Covid patients in SF are unvaccinated. This is an incredible triumph of science, and a colossal failure of the media and politicians.

    Can I put this in a job description without being destroyed? "You prefer a job where nobody cares if you need to leave for a dentist appointment in the middle of the day, but you also don’t blink when replying to an email at 9pm while watching Netflix on your couch."

    When hiring your first employees at your seed-stage startup and the candidate says they *need* to make $350k/year, they are really saying they don't want to work at a startup and you should probably listen to them instead of trying to make it work.

    It’s dumb that washing machines don’t just turn into dryers when the washing is done. I’m aware a small set of compact devices do this mediocrely, but it should be the norm.
