Just how there's a bunch of apps that allow you to scan a food's barcode to tell you how healthy it is there should also be an app to scan foods abroad as a tourist and inform you how likely it will give you an explosive stomachache

Not against capturing media/photos at all - at some point there is a tradeoff of trying to maximizing media capture at the expense of enjoying the moment/not respecting the site itself which is the issue

Seeing people trying to instagram-maxx amazing & historical tourist spots live is super sad and demoralizing to see (both in regards to the person's likely values, as well as for respect towards a cool place)

Monterey/Salinas/Carmel is such a cracked beautiful area... what I really appreciate about it relative to other beach spots is the serenity & chillness of the towns

Jeremy Lin on his mom emptying out her 401K to help him prepare for the NBA draft.

"When I was preparing for the NBA draft, my mom emptied out her entire 401K so that I can eat until I was full so I can prepare for the NBA draft."

"We were very far in debt. We had already borrowed from the bank, we borrowed from the house, we borrowed from Harvard. No one would let us borrow anymore."

"I just felt a calm and a peace that had to come from the woman above (his mom)…I felt like I was a kid getting ready to go play my Saturday AAU games and Sunday AAU games. In a way, I felt like I was seeing her in the stands”

Pho easily has the biggest dropoff from Dine In -> Takeout

The OKC Thunder has so many attributes of a likable team:
- Drafted + internally developed young talent
- Maximizes strengths of role players
- Plays very hard
- Superstar with elite separation/craftiness
Yet...
- Egregiously pushes rules on both off/def
- Flop city
- Dirty city

@byanymeansbball Same with that video of CMB missing during shooting drill at combine. First, his primary value is as an extremely switchable, versatile small big. Secondly, he ended up shooting 34% from 3 in his rookie season still which aint bad for a rookie big

@byanymeansbball Observation from last night's game - Wemby was elite at unconventional finishes. Off hand, off foot, off balance, making these was not incidental but something you could tell he was comfortable with

Shazam app coming out in 2002 was lowkey quite impressive

Gdam I love watching dudes like Jamal Shead @Thejshead hoop. Lacking in size/athleticism but full of toughness and game sense awareness. Dog at Houston and carving his role in the next level

Good morning.

@_prezidente @LoganPAdams Strong agreed. His college/high school shot reminds me of Tatum's in college/hs where he struggled a bit from college 3pt but was solid in mid range. I think really depends on his mechanic adjustments

[derek guy @dieworkwear]

rolex makes objectively good watches, but the brand is so closely associated with a kind of status-obsessed braggart who's constantly assessing other people's social positions that it's hard to get into their watches. spiritually painful.

@onballcreator David is a little smaller than most of your examples listed but still overall agree. He'll have to shine more in ballhandling + playmaking to compensate.
