Watched this over the weekend. I could listen to Elon Musk talk all day even though I don’t understand half of what he’s talking about. ?
It’s pretty cool to think that we could be sending humans to Mars within the next 10 years.
This has to be the best podcast episode I’ve listened to this year. Jason Fried has so many refreshing ideas on how to create a great workplace culture.

I knew there was something fishy going on with the Mac App Store this week.
See this from Daring Fireball:
Lost amid the FBI/iPhone encryption hubbub was another bad week for the Mac App Store — apps just stopped launching, with the only solution being to delete the app(s) and re-install from the store. Michael Tsai (as usual) compiled a thorough roundup of information and commentary.
I can honestly say that I’m done buying apps through the Mac App Store. It is maddening to launch an app and have to type my Apple password in over and over again or have to delete/reinstall the app altogether just to get it to work again.
Oh, and #FirstWorldProblems.

I struggle with figuring out how to sit properly during meditation. The tightness of my hips and legs keeps me from getting in any type of deep meditative state because of the discomfort I feel in trying to maintain the traditional cross-legged pose.
This blog post from The Chopra Center was helpful, however I’d prefer not to have to sit in a chair … I’d like to sit on the ground in some way.
When you meditate, the goal is to get your body to a state of restful awareness, where you can witness the fluctuations of the mind. You don’t have to sit cross-legged, but it is important to make sure you’re comfortable, as this is the number one rule in meditation.
Do you have a position you use to meditate that seems to work well that doesn’t involve sitting in a cross-legged position? I’d love to hear from you.
