    People tend to construct a narrative around anything that happens. Real life has many moments that are not attached to a story arc or any kind of thrill, drama, or much-anticipated decision. However, in the absence of any other kind of thought filling their heads, people will attempt to discover...

    Thinking about ways to say similar things without losing the meaning. In this bubble-gum translation of a passage from the Dao De Jing, which do you think makes a more clear statement? (Neither is an official published translation as far as I know, because I'm making them up as I go along, but...

    How your skills can be used for ANYTHING.

    IDEA 
    I'm doing a Great American Teach In. YAy! My topic for the kids will be something along the lines of "Using Your Skills to Build Assets." It doesn't really matter what kind of assets, though I'll mostly talk about "businesses." I keep thinking about this... skills and assets. I really like...

    Moved across the country alone and living in a car. Update thread until stability

    Honestly, offer a service. Do something right away, get paid for it right away. You can possibly convert it to a SaaS or automated business later. But first things first, looking at the title of this thread, I would work on getting out of the car and into a house or apartment.

    These are all minis.... el cheapos too, though they would still be a few thousand from a dealer. I want at least one to dig up my yard. If I end up with more, I'll keep two and have excavator duels! And/or sell the extras. I manually dug a 200' trench from my house to the workshop last week...

    I'm the high bidder on 4 trucks and 7 excavators at a machinery auction. My wife thinks I'm kidding. I hope I win enough of them that we have to buy the house next door to store the extras... don't bid against me ;)

    I just want to echo that your spouse and child are primary. Anything you do for someone else, or give away, or feel obligated to provide, is something your spouse and child could have. If it's excess and they don't need it, no problem. But if it can make the difference between them thriving or...

    Opportunities in Pickleball?

    IDEA 
    It's amazing how casually these bs mills we call "the news" can take your personal activities and spin then as some sort of national issue. Like you're really imposing costs on other people by playing ping pong tennis. These analysts who come up with bs to publish... who are they? Investigate...

    Opportunities in Pickleball?

    IDEA 
    Looking ate photos... imagine the same place, but half the size, and with shade screens over the courts. Am I the only person who would get a whanging headache from playing outside in the 100 degree heat, full sun, all day? Surely not? An extra dose of humanity in the design of outdoor sports...

    Opportunities in Pickleball?

    IDEA 
    Sports performance in ahem "modern times" is often driven by equipment. People intuitively know this. They will buy the lightest, gear-iest bike, the lightest bounciest racquet, the most high-fantasy shoes; all for an edge. Of course, they'll go all out on supplements, nutrition, etc too. Let's...

    Are you as fit as Mark Zuckerburg? (Probably not)

    I'm not doing any of these weird things, but I can punch harder than Zuckerberg, drink him under the table, and I'll wager$1,000 I outlive him by 40 years. Despite being several years older. So there, whippersnappers!

    I met up with a student of Business #1 today, and for whatever reason luck came up. His goal is to start a business using the license he got with us. My description of luck and opportunity usually goes something like this: Opportunity is practically everywhere. 100 opportunities went by within...

    I will be doing some traveling this summer. Japan, Thailand, Cambodia, maybe some others. My curiosity draws me to old temples and shrines, Shinto, Ruesi/Rishi, and perhaps paradoxically, sushi. They have let us out of our cages, now go see the world.

    And like most "you'll never have to code again" things, it's more work to convince the tool to do what you need it to do, than to just learn the basic coding concepts.

    The real problem is they don't borrow enough money from the fed, creating $30 in debt for every dollar borrowed. How could you keep people frantically spinning their wheels without all that debt?
