After what feels like 37 trips to the car, I think it’s finally packed for a week long trip to the cabin. I think about how every thing you bring represents something you are afraid of. Food for hunger. Light for being trapped in the dark. Different clothes for comfort,…
My contrarian opinion is that if marketers can make women desire this and 15 Stanley cups, they can in no time get women to start having children again.
I notice I mix past and present and future tense when I write. Because time seems fake.
Solution: every airline ticket sale should go to a public database. Include all factors that influenced the price so people can understand. Anecdotally, it seems like rates go up if you return to look a second time. They want to teach you FOMO so you book first.

The comments are good here. Reminds me of when I missed three (!) hair cut appointments in 2024. The reminders on my phone didn’t work. I’d be absorbed in the evening taking care of kids or work. Felt bad because the person cutting my hair was great. Now I go to Sports Clips.…
can someone please explain why this happens
One reason I stay a bit quite about AI these few months. I can’t find my voice to say this right. I’ll try. — What has my AI found just in the millions of never saved TV from the 1980s-1990s? The simple commercial, I have the largest collection known in the world is a…
I find this to be very serious, do you? — AI models have not captured the essence of the can-do ethos and the do it yourself mentality that propelled humanity into space and computers from 1870-1970. The reason: Internet training data is massively flawed by humanity-hating…
Today in the mail I got an 8 page letter from health care dot gov asking me to (again) prove my newborn’s citizenship. I addressed this back in June, as shown in thread below. But, because it’s their process, they must automatically send out a snail mail letter, though it…
Follow up: It only took 15 days for healthcare dot gov to confirm my child was indeed a US citizen. I uploaded a birth certificate and medical bill and then the speedy review began. The insurance is outrageously expensive and often a bad deal, but they still impose friction.
The voice in your head is undefeated. The trick is to change the story you tell yourself.
Support regenerative farmers! Peter started a Substack to explain why. Consider subscribing to his meat CSA from Mastodon Valley Farms. Best beef that I’ve had!

“We’re conditioned to believe food is comfort. Celebration. Joy. But sometimes it’s just addiction in a shiny wrapper.” Great thread 👇
It just hit me why some people on GLP-1s say junk food suddenly tastes disgusting. It’s not that the food changed. It’s that the dopamine is gone. No reward. No artificial high. Just… chemicals. Without that hit, you finally taste the truth, and it’s empty. That was exactly…
The sled does magic for the knees. (See thread below) I made my own with a kid’s snow sled. For the weight, I put plastic bags of sand in burlap sacks and then sealed w duck tape. You could only pull backwards, and the wetness of the grass would impact the resistance. The…

Getting back into running. Did my first Zone 2 run ever (~130 to 140 bpm heart rate) It feels a little embarrassing running so slow. But, it should be sustainable long term and builds mitochondria for fat oxidation. 80% zone 2 and 20% more intense. Pareto.
Danny was featured for his vibe coding in the Grok 4 release last week. Here’s a succinct thread on what to do to code your first game.
In the past 1 month, I've made 9 game prototypes with Grok, Cursor and Windsurf. Here's how I usually start my initial prompts:👇
Thanks @BrianRoemmele for the kind retweet. 🙏 I can’t think of a better account with both bleeding edge tech content and interesting historical context and perspective. This post got some reach (for me), so I should mention the prompt that I used included a specific request for…
I had to ask Grok for an explanation on his work… Folks, let me tell you about this David Bohm guy—some people call him Einstein’s successor, and believe me, they’re right. He’s got ideas that are going to blow your mind, change the world, make physics great again. It’s all…
It was obvious to me back in high school that the grift was to get everyone unhealthy and then sell healthcare as a way to “boost the economy”. This picture below is perfect evidence.
This is nuts. In 1990 healthcare wasn’t the top employer in any state In 2024 it’s the top employer in 39 states We are the united states of healthcare
I made $32 with Grok 4. How? I asked it to find coupon codes. After a robust search through the clickbait coupon sites and Reddit, came back with a list of 6 for me to try. The 6th one worked and saved 20%. (Since this took a minute, that’s ~$17m arr, right?)
