About
Be less dazed and confused
Every week I send out some links that I found interesting in a way that saves you time. I focus on productivity, self-hacking, modernity, and learning tools.
Cut through the noise with my summaries and highlights.
Find new sources and tools. Get ideas for living.
Part thought-provoking, part practical.

More about me:
Made in Brooklyn. Late 70s.
College days in gorges Ithaca. Adult life in NYC & Bay Area.
I live near Berkeley now. It’s like Ithaca but warmer, more expensive, and sits on a faultline.
I’ve been trading options for 20 years to make a living. It’s a humbling thing to do, since you get to find out you are wrong about stuff all the time. The lessons from that likely come to bear on at least the practical topics I try to cover on this site.
The guiding principle here is to be useful. By writing here I’m forced to clarify my thinking. By trying to be useful I help myself too. That model scales well. It’s better than a free lunch — it’s cash back.
On a personal note, I have a wife who I try to deserve and 2 sons who I am consciously trying to not screw up by overcompensating for my own shortcomings.

Reviews
Moontower is a daily or weekly (you can set your preferences) curated newsletter of the top tech news. It takes a simple, no-nonsense approach to the news and it has some fantastic content. What I really love about it is the content is far less "clickbait-y" than most tech newsletters. Clickbait tends to get old and any decent reader can see right through it. Moontower has quality content that is always interesting and I look forward to receiving it daily.
