We all know the fastest way to save $1MM is to take a small loan from your father.

Fender’s app is fine, but I like GuitarTuna a lot better (also free!).

For incredible sax solos look no further than Gerry Rafferty’s Baker Street or Hazel O’Connor’s Will You.

Attachment Is the Enemy

Definitely correct about aesthetics. I always thought the Telecaster was the ugliest guitar on the planet. Then one night in 2004 I had a dream that I was on stage playing a Tele (I was in a band at the time) and I woke up with a completely different view on the guitar. Decided to go to the guitar store and play one…

Lots of people recommend that new guitarists start on an acoustic guitar, and I agree with that recommendation. Like you said, it strengthens your fingers, and it also builds calluses and helps develop good technique. If you can find a Yamaha, they’re usually a great value for the money, especially used.

This is my husband! Thanks for interviewing him :) #proudSpouseAlert

It’s almost like this guy fucking hated being asked these questions.

A few things to keep in mind, for those who aren’t versed in this stuff:

Holy clickbait batman. I think you need to specify this is about the windows/mac apps and not the drive.google.com.

Maybe clarify that this is not actually affecting the Drive cloud service but only the apps labeled Drive on Macs and PCs.

Yeah, thanks. Problem solved everyone, let’s go home.

Awesome article! I love the answers. He comes across as a regular guy but has a jaw-dropping resume. His response to have two students answer the same questions has me curious to what they would say. Andy, can you make that happen?

It’s an old question but still a good one I think. Do we really need this? Or is it just the industry?... the one ever on the lookout for the next money moo-moo?

I once saw a show with a panel of people who had survived some very life-threatening situations. It may have been Oprah, but I’m not sure. What I DO remember is that one of the panelists, who survived a plane crash, said that the main thing she was thinking when the plane was going down was the fact that she had opted…

The thought of my own death doesn’t bother me a bit - I wont be conscious to experience any lack. Utter blankness of consciousness doesn’t bother me. I like the idea of my molecules going back into the ground to nurture it. I don’t love pain and fear and loss of control. But I try to accept that I may experience all…

Thanks for the advice ;)
