TIP was excellent this week with @farnamjake1 youtube.com/watch?v=sdfdA5… Pretty much anytime Jake speaks, it's worth listening to.

Pulled the trigger and began DCAing into $DEEP. The way I look at it: even if it underperforms forever, it's kind of a tiny donation to one of my favorite podcasts. @Greenbackd

Walking on hardwood floors is like walking on bubblewrap. Pretty much impossible to sneak out of the house while your children sleep.

Something my brother threw together. 2000 was crazy. 2020 is also crazy. Hindsight on this one will be pretty interesting.

Want to know why it’s so hard for #cops to be ‘good apples’... It was 2007 and I was assisting a call with an officer I’d never met before. He was from another team working overtime. Right in front of me he broke a kids nose with a punch. The septum was clearly deviated and

"Politicians are never so bad that you don't live long enough to want them back." Charlie Munger* The past few days have really made me feel this. *In a shareholder's meeting, and I'm quoting from memory. If anyone knows the exact quote, I'd appreciate it.

To everyone saying that the police kill more whites than blacks, you need to look at per-capita numbers. Blacks make up a disproportionate number of police-induced fatalities. In 2019, the population was 62% white 12% black. Police-caused deaths? 45% white, 23% black.

I was thinking, "This is the worst that race relations have been in my lifetime." But nope. Upon reflection, it's been this way for as long as I can remember. I'm old enough to remember #RodneyKing. :/ I want to be part of the solution, but what is the solution?

Was hacking around this weekend, and noticed my laptop fans spinning when I ran my React app. Switched it over to solid (github.com/ryansolid/solid) by @RyanCarniato. Now it runs smooth as silk, and consumes less CPU than my hand-rolled version.
