My partner and I are expecting a baby soon. I’m curious if I will notice the difference at the micro level. Maybe college will be easier to get into in 18 years!

Lina Hidalgo is awesome. It is so sad how much resistance she faced in trying to enforce mask policies in one of the most populous counties in the country. Greg Abbot couldn’t take a female Democrat taking action while he was paralyzed in fear of upsetting his donors. I hope she sticks around for a long time.

Anecdotally my wife and I have a pretty fair division of labor IMO. She wanted to stop working when Covid broke out due to being pregnant and a healthcare worker. I’m lucky enough to wfh. Our nanny jumped town so she became the primary caregiver to our toddler M-F 8-5. I help out in the early morning and after work. I…

Back in the 90s my dad and I would stop by subway and pick up two sandwiches and bring two cans of coke from home. I could fit them in my cargo pockets. My dad always made me carry them because I was a kid and wouldn’t get in trouble. I would get major anxiety unwrapping my loud sandwich and popping the tab on the…

I sold cars for a year and learned a fun life hack. You can squirt a little tire shine and buff the headlights. It’s cheaper than buying a headlight restoration kit and probably lasts about as long. Every few months just do it again.

I warmed up my fridge from 37 degrees to 40 degrees and miraculously my turkey has thawed. 

I wonder if they will give me extra if I launch a start up... I want to open a riverboat casino. I’ve already got some silent partners, so I just need some space.

You should aim to save 30x your income across all your investments for retirement unless you plan go out in under 10 years... The beauty is if you hit the 1x milestone by 30, the rest is gravy assuming you contribute 15% of your income to retirement. 

I’m going to preface this with the fact that I’m not an olympic lifter or power lifter. I’ve decided to stop doing OHP. I find that I get plenty of front work delt with bench and incline bench. I’ve instead starting focusing a lot on my rear and side delts because I’ve noticed I have developed a bit of a hunched over…

I would not recommend this evil hack for new grads. I found right out of undergrad jobs actually requested transcripts because it was an easy way to verify your honesty. 

My sister in law is throwing a fit that my pregnant wife and mother of a toddler doesn’t want to travel 1000 miles for her new born’s baptism. Oh well. 

I agree with you, but there’s two other ways to look at it. Pro-camera: having a camera on is shown to keep participants focused on the presentation (although I still look at my phone) 2. Anti-Camera: looking at your face and others on zoom causes zoom fatigue which sucks. 

I was listening to his podcast recently and he said he created the website because he personally was looking for an alternative to popular men’s magazines that defined a success as 6 packs and owning a Ferrari. He writes about things that interest him and reads a ton of books. 

I enjoy both blogs. I think AoM has really interesting interviews and touches on a lot of fun subjects. I think this article is a little harsh and uses a lot of examples from almost a decade ago. I think it would be good to read some of their latest content. This feels like the article on UnTuckit. A problem that…

Could you bore out some of the engine for a little more HP? Also dumb question but if I weight half as much as you, am I still limited to 55mph or do I just get to 55 quicker?

I saw that video a while back and tried it. I came to the same conclusion. The best way to eat a flapper, in my opinion, is to crack the bone and slide out the smaller piece of bone.

I work in the tech industry. I remember going to a NSHMBA career fair in Chicago. I spoke with a recruiter from Ford who was really nice, but the GM recruiter was very callous. She says why “Detroit? Why cars? I don’t think you’d be a good fit.” So I took a product manager job at a Tech company (not in SF) and bought…

Amber probably warned her that snitches get stitches. 

Knee sleeves are also good shin protectors for deadlifts.

This is so sad to read. My company actually made a point to tell people to not say anything about barking dogs or screaming kids so as not to make people uncomfortable about what goes on in their home. I personally like when I hear kids and think it’s funny when my kid is heard in the background. My coworkers yipping…
