I think there’s lots of benefits to this, but I also kinda feel bad for the pizzeria employees that have to deal with this. But also, I think my fundamental failures as a person have a lot to do with me not doing these sorts of things independently at an early age.

I know everyone is excitedly expecting a new MacBook Air, but I have a feeling this will probably just mean an updated MacBook with two USB-C ports.

Who is that? (I’m kinda into Korean music these days, and was wondering if they’re worth looking into)

Knowing the “quality” of Beats headphones it’s entirely possible he was actually using the headphones.

Wait is Adam Pash still around here?

I’m using Duolingo to try my hand at Korean again. If I hadn’t had previous experience with it, I think I’d be completely lost. I think they have to clarify their marketing a bit. I think it’s a good supplement but maybe not the best jumping off point for learning a new language.

How do you become one of these analysts? I think I can do a better job and need that analyst money.

I know it’s in style to hate corporations and what-not, but it totally sucks that a lot of these huge toy stores are closing. Sure, in a large city there will be smaller toy shops to visit, but nothing is quite the same as watching kids losing their sh-minds in a big toy store. (Not to mention all the lost jobs due to…

I was about to say, I had no idea there was a Toys R Us at Union Square

Man that would be awesome. My oldest son is about that age and already hates school and finds everything about it boring.

I wonder what might be missing from this research. My kids’ school is a public school in a neighborhood that I would say is 40% white and the rest Black or Latino. My son’s school I’d say is very close to 90% Black or Latino. The tool shows that it’s not very segregated, almost exactly in the middle. I can’t help but…

The only reason I would like a Spotify subscription is to listen to songs recommended by other people without having to manually search in Apple Music. At work we have a Slack channel where people share music recommendations and they’re all Spotify users, so it’s Spotify links getting shared.

I found that Apple Music got better about that a few months ago. I was enjoying Apple Music and just took a chance with iCloud Music Library again. The first time I tried it, all my album artwork got messed up and the wrong versions of a lot of my songs were synced to my other devices. I swore it off until about…

The misses makes a big deal about our kids’ screen time. I am pretty lenient about the whole thing. My kids are extremely active, their academic skills are above where they need to be, we play together and discuss the shows and games they play on their screens. I can’t think of a reason to deprive them of it. They…

I wish there were a trick to this with non-American grandparents and relatives. They all know your kids’ birthdays and they just show up (uninvited) with tons of presents, that you nor your kids asked for. You tell them days and weeks before that the kids don’t need toys and yet, bags and bags of toys. And then you…

Not gonna lie, I looked at the picture first and somehow thought this was a Compete post.

I wonder if this is an inside joke relating to the Disney movie “Mulan”. In Mulan, the character Mushu kept referring to the horse as a cow. Mulan takes place in China. Mulan came out about 20 years ago.

Is LeBron James (and I guess the NBA as a whole) really that famous in China, or are they just really really trying to push that idea through? Who is more famous in China, the best Chinese basketball player or LeBron James?

Fair.

My rule of thumb is if the news page you follow on Facebook just confirms all of your beliefs of how the world works, it’s probably not a reputable news source.
