I'm so excited to announce that timewaster is now live. It uses AI to draft replies to cold, spammy emails to waste their time. It's fully compatible with Gmail and Fastmail. Oh, and it's 100% free for life. This is a revolution and we must fight back. timewasterapp.com

Advice from Rick Rubin that rewired my entire mindset: "Don't listen to anyone. Do things you love. Make your favorite things for you. You be the audience."

Franklin D. Roosevelt showed great hospitality to members of the Norwegian royal family during their years in exile in the United States. For a period, the future King Harald V actually lived in the White House with his mother, Crown Princess Märtha, and his sisters.
"When war reached Norway with Nazi invasion 1940, we were invited by Roosevelt to take refuge in Washington...I was 3 when we arrived in DC and 8 when we left...I remember standing behind Roosevelt when he was sworn in 4th term" - #RIP Norway King Harald 10/31/95 @PressClubDC

Inside of a courtyard block in Oslo, Norway. This is not a public park. It’s a shared backyard. Imagine living in a dense, walkable city and having a backyard like this where kids can run around, people can have a garden or bike shed, where storm water can infiltrate soil … All of this is created by a simple code: buildings built to front and side property lines, buildings can go up 5-6 stories, 50-60% lot coverage.
