Rafer sez:
Instead, be disgusted with yourself about the people you maim, kill, and and undereducate.

"For a country like America that defines itself by its enemies, that must have them lest the hawks and warmongers of the right sigh themselves to sleep every night, we just don’t know where to turn, where to direct all our intolerance and bile. All we have is one skinny, naive-looking 19-year-old kid named Dzhokhar who’s lying in a hospital bed, riddled with bullets, barely alive, his throat torn out and his world surrounded by cops and ignominy and death, whispering that he has no clue what the hell is going on."
"I don’t blame the platform. They have to constantly adapt their strategy and if you’re going to bet on them, expect the worst all the time, that way you won’t be disappointed."

"It’s a safe bet that the wealthy median American consumer of the 2020s, 2030s, and 2040s will want to be entertained, and will be prepared to spend more on entertainment products and services than the median consumer in 2012, 2000, or 1980. And one way or another, a large fraction of that money will wind up in the pockets of musicians, authors, actors, and other creative professionals. Markets are unpredictable, so we can’t predict exactly how this will happen. But we should be pretty confident that it will."

A couple days at downtownproject.com
I’m flying back to SF from my first voluntary trip to Vegas in at least ten years. From what I saw of downtownproject.com, I will probably go again this year — maybe more than once.
I’m a city and city redevelopment nut (hence Lumatic). What Tony Hsieh and his teams are doing is pretty incredible. I’ve mainly been exposed to factory towns trying to reinvent themselves. Vegas and its particular sort of (IMO terrible) tourism is a whole different problem.
I encourage anyone who gets to Vegas to take a day out to journey downtown, get the tours, meet a few of the folks, and see how they are trying to deliver happiness to a place that could really use it. A special trip is justified too if you have the resources or if you have a startup that makes sense to locate there. The Vegas Tech Fund seem particularly good at helping ecommerce and fashion startups somehow. ;-)

The bus you need to be on is sitting in traffic. You are at the bus stop, stuck waiting in the cold. Your frustration is rising. Sound familiar? Schedules are helpful, but you want to know when that bus will REALLY arrive.
We are excited to announce that City Maps v3.6 has real-time transit…
