I think the next 2 years are going to be rough seas. Interest rates are going up, FUD will be everywhere. What to do? Ignore the noise. If you've got a good business that solves burning problems, a good team with great chemistry, and you've saved your money for rainy
In my now 33+ years as a tech entrepreneur I've always sought out people smarter than yours truly. Then wen I found them, I stayed out of their way. After all it makes no sense to bring in smart people then not listen to them or stand over them. It’
I wrote this March 2012, back wen it wasn't popular to side with Microsoft. Today, Microsoft dominates the server space and gaming. Their cloud platform is outstanding. Blazor is the primo framework to use for building interactive client-side web UI apps. C# developers are everywhere. They're a blue chip stock.

Delusionville is everywhere around us. Yesterday in Minturn it was on full display, at a celebration of life I went to. The person we celebrated was very active in A.A. - Alcoholics Anonymous. A.A. overshadowed their life. I met them in A.A., they were always kind to

gm, In The Light Cult Crypto Club discord this morning brother Iguana wrote "I'm in it to win it". This got me thinking. Sort of reminded me of a lousy 80's term - "win-win". I get the sentiment, I'm all for it. But for me, win implies someone has to
This was the 2nd post on my first blog, heyheyrenee, from 8.30.2010. After I sold my first company in 2000 I needed something to do. So I built a treehouse. It was great, I spent a lot of time in it, like the week or so when I

Howdy, Wen I look around at our art it all has a meaning. I'm connected to the story behind the image and the artist. For me, buying something just because it looks good is like digging the music I'm listening to all because of the beat, not reading or thinking
Jeff and I were talking this morning about transferring data. Then he said, "kinda like the Sneakernet". The Sneakernet is how we transferred data before we had the Internet. It went like this: Put a floppy disk (floppy) into the source computer's floppy drive, execute the copy command using DOS,

When the MAGA crowd bemoans being politically correct, it’s a dog whistle for getting rid of decency. They want to say anything they want - anytime, anywhere. They hate socialism. What they view as paying for what they don’t believe in, or what they think they don’t

Their vision is unacceptable to most Americans, and they know it. That’s why they’re willing to end democracy to get their way. Far from religion being a force uniting the populace and America, it is doing its best to destroy it from within.
I was the one with this sign at Sunday night's Phish show at Dick's: "Trumpers & The Religious Right Are The American Taliban" I abhor what's happening to us and I won't apologize. But this is the wrong message. I'm a proud American, an entrepreneur. I don't always get it right.

This was on heyheyrenee. It belongs here too. Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can
Today I was able to do 10 pushups. Started doing curls again - with Renee's help since I can't lift anything yet. I'll get there.
A tie-dye I ordered from SheMakesShirts [https://www.etsy.com/shop/SheMakesShirts] came today. The shirt came in a tie-dye package. Inside was my shirt, a handwritten thank you note, stickers, candy, and care instructions. I love the shirt. My fist V-neck tie-dye. Great for when it’s really hot,
Our 2003 VW van Weekender, license plate HIPEVAN (hippie van) -- needs a new engine and transmission. Doesn't have to be new, rebuilt would be fine. I'm putting the vibe out there for help. Gotta find someone who can do this. Not just do it, do it great. The best. Because it's the HIPEVAN.
I'm angry and sad. Because of what's happening to Mother Earth. I've seen it, lived it. Living it. I can hear the birds crying. We did this. We're doing it. We're destroying the Sacred. In the name of progress and growth. Or as Don Henley sings in the Last Resort
Early March I hurt my back skiing Spider bumps at "The Beav" Beaver Creek. I've skied Spider...a few thousand times. Some days Spider is all I skied. I know every turn. That day I was feelin' it. So I pushed it. Pushed too hard, missed a turn and hit a bump the wrong way, hurt my back.
