This is all very true. I always try to push for customer interviews to be as much about formulating new hypotheses as they are about validating existing hypotheses.
The fact that cannabis is so genetically unstable is very interesting. The root cause of the problem is that the level of CBD or THC produced by the plant in the resin is a result of polygenic expression— in other words, even if you have two strains of CBD-dominant crop, pollination can still result in increased THC in the next generation of the plant.
I’m going to plug Peter Attia, MD again here. In his podcast with Mike Joyner, MD (an exercise physiologist of Mayo Clinic) there is fairly detailed discussion of the literature on this topic.
I have been doing CGM for 7 months now and the learning has been invaluable. My metrics were never in the danger zone but I feel like I’ve learned so much about how many different factors play into insulin resistance and have managed to build much healthier habits over time.
These kinds of things that are basically substitutes for an IQ test (versus tests that purport to measure a specific type of specific technical aptitude) should be banned for employment screening, IMO. Where do we draw the line?
I have experienced some of these issues myself. I find that it becomes more tolerable (and also more palatable) when I use a blend of natural sugar and artificial sweetener like erythritol or stevia.
There’s not a lot of room for effective restructuring here — for Spirit it’s more of a revenue problem rather than just a debt service problem. They’d probably end up in Chapter 7 (liquidation) pretty soon after starting Chapter 11 proceedings
I agree with you even though I think some will view this as a hot take. It is interesting that the US government has historically subsidized both smaller telcos and airlines to fill these types of small gaps where they exist.
This is incredible, what a harbinger. This is a great dissection of how things went wrong. A number of other companies have also followed this narrative, albeit not as memorably
Honestly, the bigger issue here is that good math teachers in the US are just in short supply. Sometimes I wonder if the way we teach algebra here is flawed, like something pedagogically or conceptually, and good teachers break through that to give students what they need to prepare their students.
Considering historical disparities in tree planting and landscaping promulgated by Robert Moses and subsequent officials, this is a great step in the right direction. Community boards have already been pushing for this kind of environmental justice
Agree. It shocks me that anyone would stand against this— there’s so much anti Patriot Act rhetoric, this is one of the only ways to make a step toward achieving justice in the situation
I agree. So, I think the question is, how do you effectively implement stewardship and accountability on product matters without having an organization strictly dedicated to it? The author doesn’t give much of a framework here
I really loved these (.38 specifically) back in college, but they’d start skipping within a matter of weeks. Maybe I was just applying too much pressure?
I am left-handed and the Energel has totally changed my life— it’s the best pen I’ve ever had. I have recently come to believe Pentel is (pardon the cliche) the Apple of writing instruments. They’ve simply PM’d the hell out of their product over time, and it really shows.
