@stephsmithio Galapagos is at the top of our want to go list but it’s mostly for the diving. Jordan we found to be underrated, Taiwan is always a good time. Going to Okinawa this summer if yall want to join us!

Also... equally important question. Is it worth going? Weighing up against trips to Jordan or Taiwan + Okinawa in the spring 🤔

Who’s been to the Galapagos? Any tips for a 1-2 week trip? 🐢🐧🦩

@MilanRecLabel @creepynuts_ann @anime_dandadan Hi do you have this in vinyl? I didn’t see it in your shop

👻👽 Otonoke by @creepynuts_ann is OUT NOW! It’s the wild opening theme to @anime_dandadan. Momo believes in ghosts, Okarun’s all about aliens, and Turbo Granny... well, she stole Okarun’s “important” parts...

Who'd start their first company in a country they’d never visited to solve an unsexy climate problem that nobody ever thinks about? @louispotok, that's who. Inspired by his audacity, I flew to SE Asia to visit and write his story. Read it now (link in🧵)

I give tamarillo 1/10, jack fruit and mulberry 10/10. @rabbit_hmi’s ability to identify any of them is 0/10. Thanks @internet_pipes @stephsmithio for letting me to try so many new fruits and @MikeWigmore for letting me try your pokedex!

Gather 'round children, it's time to learn the story of the ozone hole Last year on a lark, I flew to visit @recoolit in Jakarta to see their climate tech ambitions in action. That trip kickstarted my most ambitious writing yet. The first part is out now, on @every (link in 🧵)

@stephsmithio Is it looking like it’ll be visible in SF? One report I read said it should be 11pm and on

🚨PSA: A solar storm is making the Northern Lights visible in atypical places, including significant parts of North America. If you’re nearby, get outside and see them. Drive a little if you need to. One of the few experiences that is SO much more magical than the pictures. ✨

@lunchbag Congrats on the growth, hang in there!! I’ve been telling all my friends looking for mint alternatives about lunch money, you deserve all the success 🫶

This was hard to do but dang, I'm so tired 😭 We are up as much as 7x daily signups compared to last quarter, and traffic to the site is consistently 50% higher than usual. Lunch Money is going through a growth spurt. Putting on my infra-engineering hat for the next couple of days/weeks. I have a good list of optimizations to look into and have already re-written some core queries to be more efficient. Finally got on NewRelic as well. Grateful to Heroku for being so easy to use/scale up. Finally, thankful to our users for their continued support and patience. 🙏

The new @SpotifyUSA AI is shockingly good, starting to become my default listening experience now. I wish I could talk with it though: tell it I want a workout mix right now, focus music, something fresh, etc

We learn best when doing what we love. I love to eat. Last month, my husband & our friend Jon, launched their second annual "Cheff's Table" where they cook tasting menus that educate through food.

An extremely well written and comprehensive look at the carbon removal industry. Highly recommend giving it a read if you’re interested in the space!

I just learned about AutoGPT this morning @cerebralvalley_ hackathon and was blown away by its capabilities

“I’m a [product manager, lawyer, engineer, etc.] and I want to transition to climate work. Where should I look?” I get a version of this question a lot. This note summarizes how I usually answer it in case it’s useful for others asking a similar question: nanransohoff.substack.com/p/finding-a-jo…

@ffx Are you in nc right now? How long you around for?

TIL they put rice in the salt shakers in Wilmington North Carolina to stop the humidity from clumping up the salt

@helenleemoon Great lessons and story @helenleemoon! I had similar aspirations about transitioning from working in cushy tech to becoming a chef. After a stage (which I absolutely loved), I decided to stay in tech. Curious to hear if you’d ever go back to finance.

At age 33, I started a whole new career to become a chef. It was one of the most exciting yet difficult things I've had to do. • I didn't know anyone • The job required different skill sets It was 3 years of massive growth. 5 key lessons about Starting Something New: 🧵👇
