I think about this a lot, but have to side with John Hammond
Monday morning quarterbacking, but the park probably would have gotten into the black with just triceratops and brontosaurus.

I question ROI of Velociraptors, or why you wouldn’t wait 5 years to breed them and have the announcement bump up return visits
I also question staffing decisions - besides the key man risk in IT, what kind of head of security waits until the target is in sight to load his gun?

Was she really that clever, or was this fellow simply a dunce?

Anyway the answer is still always to bring back dinosaurs
All progress depends on the Dinosaur Man.

The thing people actually fall in love with with Roam are the ideas, memories, and work they put into it.

Only a reflection of what you put in

If your work is spiritually dead, it’s much easier to sneer and blame “the system” than to face and question yourself and your choices.
“You work that you may keep pace with the earth and the soul of the earth.

For to be idle is to become a stranger unto the seasons, and to step out of life’s procession, that marches in majesty and proud submission towards the infinite.”

Big if true.

Shame Twitter is poor fact-checking UI, this is definitely verifiable for someone with time/ability.

A small Roam graph making would be beautiful to see

Buy when there is 🩸 in the streets.

Time for my "Conor is in same room as a 16 y/o" speech

I STRONGLY considered attending @LambdaSchool after selling my first company.

Chose not to go because required waking up at a specific time every day.

STRONGLY prefer my kids wind up going to LS vs debt-shackling college.
If you, or anyone you love, is wanting to transition from a bullshit job into tech - and you do not have ton of engineer friends who will mentor you, and ton of experience in teaching yourself hard material, and years to spend wandering interwebs...

@LambdaSchool is where I'd go
One last thing

If you're the kind of entitled asshole who can't figure out that 70% graduation rate, and 87% placement rate DOES NOT MEAN you are guaranteed a job...

and so you sue and defame

Please
please
PLEASE!

take a $200k loan for that BA in art appreciation instead

Credit @tferriss for great interview with the author of [[The Inner Game of Tennis]], and @AirrAudio for providing tool for extraction

Great ideas, in context of [[The Last Dance]] and [[Michael Jordan]] and reality that [[You win games in practice]]

I want to start a TikTok. Thinking I’ll start this weekend.

Thinking it would be cool to learn how to translate my ideas and things I can teach into that medium from someone who knows it well, put the interview on YouTube

Anyone want to be my tutor for an hour?

[[Intermediate Deliverables]]
You may not have any idea about what 5 will be when you build 1,2,3 or 4

Look deeper, forget what you know, see what is changing in each step

Wheels, Steering, Gears, Engine, Frame

Note how elements of 1 get stripped away, only reintroduced at stage 5
