Fraction of all US wealth owned by Boomers & Gen-Xers when the average member of each was age 35: Boomers, 1989 21% GenX, 2008 8% The average Millennial turns 35 in 2023. Right now they own 3%. There will surely be political implications. https://t.co/j1pNrt8mll

The Mandalorian is really beautifully executed storytelling. It's also strikingly minimal: the main character doesn't have a face and there's barely any dialogue– so much of every episode comes from the incredible atmosphere, camera work, and body language.

It's common for people to believe that they're late to their field, that the tallest trees have already been felled. Personally, I think humanity's best works are still ahead, in every single field, and this is likely to remain true for thousands of years

Last month I was faced with a decision, I could either keep on using someone else's closed source music tool, which was creating hard-to-version binary blobs as save files, or write my own synthetiser. https://t.co/NXvh50zZEu

one of my favorite snacks: white chocolate infused strawberries from muji japan. it’s *not* a white chocolate *covered* strawberry (which I believe are relatively easy to find here).

it looks like a freeze dried strawberry, but when you bite into it you realize chocolate has somehow fused w/ the interior—which also looks totally normal.
