April 18, 2019 ✖︎In fairness, there are some things that have harmed our democracy more than the Russian interference, but Mueller’s report is not one of them. Examples include: A president selling out America in Helsinki, the expressing of love for dictators and genocidal maniacs, separating kids from parents and then holding them in cages, fueling white supremacy, enabling Yemen, promoting climate change, attacking American instituions, lying habitually, ceding America’s leadership role in the world, attacking and endangering journalists, nepotism in hiring, and really stupid comments that reduce foreign meddling in our elections to buying a few Facebook ads.
65 seconds in, this Warriors @ Clippers game is already off to a fantastic start.
April 18, 2019 ✖︎So I hear beer can be a good post-workout drink, and I’ve decided for the sake of efficiency, it’s best to just skip straight to the post-workout drink. Win-win…?

April 17, 2019 April 17, 2019 ✖︎Maybe this is all in my head, but I just re-downloaded the Apple Books app on my iPhone, and instead of showing up in the first open spot, it took the exact spot on my home screen where my Kindle app was, moving the Kindle app to the next page…

This makes Yu worth the price of admission. At least for this month. Get your shit together man.

April 13, 2019 ✖︎Going to go out on a limb and say Raptors beat Warriors in six, closing it out in Oakland. And Kawhii still leaves for La La Land in the off-season.
April 12, 2019 ✖︎Kind of surprised Luke Walton is out in LA. Expected the Lakers to wait until they had a new GM in place to make the decision. Especially considering Bob Myers is a top target. Maybe Luke just didn’t want to sit around and wait with the Kings job opening up.
April 11, 2019 ✖︎Finally had a chance to dive into the Criterion Channel tonight. Started with Bill Hader’s Adventures in Moviegoing collection and Ikiru did not disappoint. It was a splendid experience. There was an elegance to it and even with the long runtime it never seemed to drag.
April 11, 2019 ✖︎Obviously Zion is the big get this year. Outside of the first pick, if I’m the Bulls, I’d look at Ja Morant followed by Jarrett Culver. After that, I think I’d look at Cam Reddish before RJ Barrett to round out the top five. Hopefully the Bulls can get one of these guys.
April 11, 2019 ✖︎Bulls finish the year with the fourth worst record in the NBA. This puts them at a 12.5% chance to get the first pick and a 48% chance to get a top four pick. For comparison, the bottom three teams all have 14% chance for the first and 52.1% for a top four.
April 7, 2019 ✖︎Oh! And Smart Playlists! That’s a killer feature I wish Spotify had. I use IFTTT with Spotify but it’s nowhere near the same.
April 7, 2019 ✖︎I have an unintended routine of using Spotify for four to five months, before wanting to give Apple Music a go because a) they show upcoming albums, and b) the ability to listen to Beats Radio show recordings. Within two weeks of Apple Music, I’m always disappointed. Discovery, organization, and their playlists just never gel with me the way they do on Spotify.
April 3, 2019 March 29, 2019 ✖︎I usually always cheer against Duke, but this year I just want to continue to watch Zion play through the whole tournament.
March 28, 2019 ✖︎Looking for suggestions: how do you follow US political news; in my ideal world there’d be a Ben Thompson/Stratechery of US political news (if you know of this let me know). Currently, I use Vox as my first source, and Axios alerts as my second source, and then a lot of your typical newspapers online as other sources through links. I also subscribe to NextDraft, which is great. I know NY Times and Axios have some decent newsletters too, but I’m curious what others use. My goal is to cut out a lot sources out and rely on one place for linking out to other sources (currently NextDraft) and one place for more consistent in-depth writing (a la Stratechery).
