sorry for the qqt, but people saying "this is interchangeable with your first year running a startup"... no. Having both an MBA, and one year running a startup, they are not the same. "which one is better" is one of those questions like "which is the best programming language"

The fact that the NYT thought we needed yet another “wokeism running amok on college campuses” piece, completely indistinguishable from all the other ones, is more interesting to me than the essay itself, which has absolutely nothing new or substantive to add. Some thoughts: 1/

Picked up @BigMeanInternet's new book, Palo Alto, and super excited to dig in. But it's also a great time to remember the bizarre fascism experiment that rocked Palo Alto high schools in the 60s paloaltoonline.com/news/2017…

If you're wondering how my brain works, today I learned what a teratoma was (warning: potentially disturbing medical content), and my brain went to "that's a pokemon name for sure", so. I present you with the evolution chain: stoma -> hematoma -> teratoma
