Chatted with a water resource economist at an event in California yesterday. The state’s water “shortage” really is one of the most unforced errors in policymaking. Key stats: - farmers use 80% of the developed water supply - residents use 20% - cities pay ~20x higher prices (!) for water than farmers (~$722/acre-foot vs ~$36/acre-foot) - some of the biggest agricultural districts in the state pay literally $0 for their water - meanwhile agriculture accounts for just ~2% of California’s economy It’s crazy that politicians tell residents to take shorter showers or get rid of their lawns instead of just charging farmers the market price for their water usage.

@homegymcoop @BowTiedYukon Best part: it removes excuses from the equation. Your day started with the best of intentions but got away from you? No problem, do your workout after the kids have been tucked in

@BowTiedYukon Yup! And a home gym allows you to get even more time back because there's no travel time or waiting for broccoli heads to finish curling in the squat rack.

Most dads aren’t waking up at 4am to train because they want to be “hardcore” They do it because that’s the only time their responsibilities are sleeping and they can have a few hours to focus on themselves

@LOTRWorldwide Don't think the world is ready for productivity tanking at a rate of -2% global GDP if this game delivers on any of its promises

Excitement is mounting for fantasy gamers as reports reveal that the upcoming Lord of the Rings game will feature a fully open world stretching from the Shire to Mordor. This ambitious design promises unprecedented freedom, exploration, and immersion in J.R.R. Tolkien’s iconic universe. Players can expect to traverse lush landscapes, perilous terrains, and iconic locations while engaging in quests, battles, and narrative-driven missions. If successful, this open world game could redefine expectations for fantasy RPGs, offering both longtime Tolkien fans and newcomers a truly immersive journey from the peaceful Shire to the dark lands of Mordor.

@TheCatholicEngr Per dollar value, I’m finding it hard to beat the $7 Canary Japanese box cutting knife. You’ll never go back to another

@dvassallo What kind of dog year universe are we living in? We need to rename the time units, a year is something completely different vs what a farmer in the 1800s experienced

@sorum Total end-to-end overhaul. I took the opportunity to add stronger themes and improve big-picture narrative flow. Third act has received heavy rewrites

We need new words to differentiate between someone who knows nothing about code trying to blindly one-shot everything and someone who understands engineering using AI to move quickly. Right now everyone is calling both "vibecoding" and they couldn't be more different.
