Well put. I think that's very true.

That's some really beautiful wool:)

Really interesting read Thorin. A lot like you suggest here, for most of my life I've used nostalgic reflections to buoy my spirits when I'm feeling disheartened or unmotivated. As you say it can be a real resource if you know how to use it.

That sounds like a blast. It's great to introduce this stuff to the next generation; coding is likely to become more and more a core competency as time goes on.

Teaching Python to high-school kids sounds interesting. What's your experience been like?

Word Lens is a really great app. Does this update to Google Translate wholly absorb Word Lens's features or should I still keep it around on my phone?

Thanks a lot for the input:)

Are you writing free-associational, unedited morning pages in the way that people talk about or is this constructive, deliberate writing aimed at producing meaningful work?

This is great advice. I think it also plays really well into most people's readiness to be swept up by an interesting and engaging story.

You're a dark horse. I'm sure many of us would love to hear about your former life treading the boards:)

This was really great Alan. Have always wanted to know more about the Kaizen mindset. Thanks a lot:)

17's early to have a strong sense of what you want to do with your life (and I'm sure most people felt the same way). Your teens and twenties are a great time to try out lots of different things, gather new skills and start to discover what line of work appeals to you. Your stage of life is ripe with opportunity and…

This is really interesting. I would never have thought to ask for something like this from a rival brand.
