I just recently switched the email associated with my Xbox account from the Hotmail I created in '98 or '99 to my current email address. That Xbox account is probably the oldest account I'm actively using since it's from around when Halo 2 launched.
I'm sure I have logins for older accounts stored in 1Password, but none of them would be anything actively used.
If you're in a city, get a dog assuming you're ok with the responsibility that comes with having one.
About 5 years ago my wife finally wore me down and we got an English Bulldog. The friends that we made at the dog park have become some of our closest friends, and it's great having friends that you don't work with because you don't end up talking about work.
I'm not a very extraverted person by any means but whenever I'm out with the dog I end up talking to people I never would have. Especially when I take him to a dog friendly bar (shoutout to DBA in the East Village!)
> Ninety-eight percent of drivers who try Lyft’s maps stick with them — rather than switching to Google, Apple, Waze, or any other app.
I find this surprising because my personal experience is the exact opposite. At least in NYC, drivers use the Lyft (or Uber) app for managing riders but use a dedicated mapping application for navigating to the destination once you're picked up.
Agreed. A lot of drivers in NYC (where I'm also based) seem to have multiple devices in the car. Maybe there's some flawed data gathering if a driver still is using the native Lyft app but running navigation on a separate device?
I'm sure they take into account whether the driver is following their app's suggested route. If the driver disregards the suggestions that would suggest the driver isn't using their maps.
I have ADHD, and this is how I use Slack too. Works wonders and makes it manageable.
Another thing I've found useful is just leaving channels where I find little to no value. If there's something important you need to be involved in, 99% of the time you'll get added back and can catch-up to contribute. In my experience with Slack, you end up in channels for "visibility" on things that have no impact on you and you have no impact on.
I live in Manhattan and my wife and I just had our first kid a few weeks ago. We've been talking about it for months now, but we want our kid to have that kind of independence and familiarity with the city. On one hand it's good for their development and on another hand it just seems practical that they be able to navigate the city on their own for safety reasons.
I've offended a lot of suburban friends and family though, because they don't understand how we could raise a child in NYC let alone give them any kind of independence. I've been told that it's irresponsible, that I'll be endangering him, and that I'm crazy to think the city is a safe place for a child, among other things.
IMO it's exactly the other way around. Raising a child who can't do basic things like run errands or get to school on their own until they are well into young adulthood is a wildly insane way to raise a child.

We live in Hong Kong and think that it's a great environment (albeit insanely expensive) to raise our one-year old child but heard the same reaction to friends and family. Some people get obsessed with the idea of safety and can't understand the value of freedom to explore, easy access to culture in the form of theatre, art, museums, ... Instead they only optimise for that single dimension of safety and are offended whenever someone challenges their obsession by making a different choice than them.
Plus, they are just a single AA in each controller. Swapping takes like 30 seconds. I use NiMH rechargeables and just swap between a couple of pairs of them whenever necessary.
Good question, the new controllers have multiple cameras and are doing inside out tracking now, I'd guess that they use a lot more power than the Quest 2 controllers do.
At a past job for a while we did Kanban with the sprint as a time box and it worked really well for the constraints we were working in. When we had work with deadlines, we'd flag that work as needing to be done in the sprint time box and put it on the top of the pile. Otherwise the team just kept picking up the next item, and we'd do a single review meeting at the end of the sprint to check in and see how everyone felt and what was accomplished. It was less of a retro and more of a temperature check.
It worked really well for a team that served a lot of different stakeholders and also had to field requests from customers since the priority of the work was always changing even if the deadlines for the work didn't.
I've been using Overcast (iOS) since it launched. Marco has done a lot of work with his Smart Speed and Voice Boost features over the years and they're a core part of what keeps me using the app.
