Today marks a big milestone toward the rebirth of supersonic passenger flight. For the first time in decades, a civil supersonic airplane has taken to the skies. The @boomsupersonic XB-1 met all of its first flight objectives—and we’re only going further, higher, and faster from here.

Something @nbaschez told me years ago about personal growth:
You should always try to look back at
yourself 6 months ago and see if it’s obvious how naive you were back then (in some regard).
If so, you’re growing. If not, it might be time to find ways to be less comfortable.

.@FastCompany on @remotionco: "Scheduling a video call just to ask a coworker what a few terms in a document mean or how the weekend’s family trip went seems like overkill, but having those conversations through email or Slack isn’t...as efficient or friendly as...face-to-face."
