This will jump to 21:51 where Scott thinks that this is a moment that will trigger a return to sane tax policy and better healthcare options for the 99%. I'll believe it when I see it.

Hi all,

I'm still trying to get back into the habit of publishing these. I'm not entirely sure of the format or the best place to publish. The last few emails are email-only with no web-facing version. That's probably not a good thing.

Web Stuff

• Execs care about revenue. How do we get them to care about outcomes? - Probably a repeat, but Jeff has been re-populating his blog and this is a great time to push it again.
• Fundraiser by Ann Willis : Swimming for Science! - Ann is a good friend and when she asks for help, I help.
• Notes on Escaping the Build Trap - Will Larson is a really smart guy, and here he publishes his notes on Melissa Perri's book Escaping the Build Trap.
• Speed Up by Slowing Down - Being busy is a trap, not just in development but in life.

Audio Stuff

• The One About Management (Pt. 1) -- Rands in Repose - I will almost blindly push anything Lopp writes or says regarding managing humans.
• Seth Godin on How to Say "No", Market Like a Professional, and Win at Life - Seth on the Tim Ferris Show. It's long, but the topics are diverse and it flies by.
• I finished Fall; or, Dodge in Hell - It's not the best Neal Stephenson, but if your're curious about what the Technological singularity might be like, that's where he goes.

Merch

• Retro logos for your favorite sportsball team.

It’s been a while, but be honest…you’re not really surprised. So instead of trying to “catch up”, I’m just going to dump the things that have been poking at my eyes and ears lately.

Podcasts:

• Broken Record with Malcolm Gladwell and Rick Rubin - My initial take on this as “this is awesome”, but now that I’ve finished the Beastie Boys Book my thinking is a little…mixed. Still, if you love music you should listen.
• How to Be Awesome at Your Job - Old podcast, but new to me.
• Function with Anil Dash - Anil is a very thoughtful host.
• Instant Message - It’s a pretty simplistic take on “tech”, but I do like the business angles they present.
• Pivot with Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway - If you like listening to Facebook getting kicked in the shins, tune in.
• Pro Rata - Great for people that want to stay in tune with tech and politics but also think they have ADHD.
• Techmeme Ride Home - More tech, less politics, and about 20min long.

Audio Books (I’ve actually finished):

• Beastie Boys Book - A long, fantastic audio book with dozens of celebrity guest readers. Sadly, no actual music because reasons.
• How the Internet Happened by Brian McCullough - Just a great history, even if you lived through it, you should listen.

Audio Books (I want to finish):

• Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
• Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport
• Nonviolent Communication by Marshall Rosenberg PhD
• Stubborn Attachments by Tyler Cowen

Things I Think I Should Read But Never Do:

• Techmeme Ride Home Long Reads
