Love Loch Kelly, I was taught by one of his best friends. His writings appealed to me as being more technical for my engineering mind which Lyn might share 👍🏼
Started with Zen training, now Tibetan (Mahayana).
Shamatha Viphashana (mindfulness-awareness) is the technical varient.
My teachers (US) were taught by Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche who was inspired to form the Shambala path, secular teachings tailored specifically for the western mindset.
Pema Chödrön is probably the most recognized active author/teacher from this lineage.
1 hour surgery, moving on...
Facts. The squirming coil, it got away.
It's important to revisit them regularly, in your professional life as well.
Saw Phish this past Saturday, part of a 4 day festival. Notice anything missing compared to other concerts?
Forgot about Tool. A bit different different since that is an explicit rule. No audio recordings either.
The Phish thing happened naturally and no one talks about it. Also different that, before the internet, they encouraged and sold 'taper' tickets so fans could trade shows (the Grateful Dead did this too I think?)
It's pretty common sense to respect others in the audience and not hold up a distracting bright screen. Shit, fans hardly talk when music is playing and very little sing along behavior.
LSD probably contributes lol
Phish (and some other hippie bands) have the only fanbases I've seen that have an unspoken 'no phone' rule.
I mean you see a few here snd there but like 99% phone free. Amazing actually
Spend and replace wallet is a great idea!

Also looking for more connections, moving over from CH and twitter. Will be following most mentioned here. Shameless coat-tailing
Just picked up some Peony Lane from nostr:npub153xmex42x4chdf757hp3q6zxagykkek7pdgwuwd074964dkyha9s82ryu8. The screaming eagle of the Rockies.
Now into cold storage until the 2032 halving at least. 
I had to pick one up as well. Couldn't help myself
Proven naturally aspirated engine will be more reliable than a new forced induction engine all day. More efficient, yes, but more stress and more heat is a definite downgrade.

North America's Highest Elevation Natural Pinot Noir is BACK. 🌟
After a devastating freeze wiped out our 2021 crop, these resilient vines surged back to yield the finest wine in Peony Lane’s 20-year history. 🍇🍷
From frost to fruition, experience the revival. 👇
Farming in the Highest Elevation Wine Region in North America is RISKY.
At 5680 ft, snow-capped peaks surround us, sending cold air rushing into our valley.
Normally, this limits pests and creates vibrant wines, but in 2021, disaster struck. ❄️
In just 12 hours, the temperature plummeted 60°F.
14°F is usually manageable, but as the first freeze of the year, the vines had no chance to harden for winter.
Colorado growers lost 80% of their grape crop in 2021. My family lost 100%. 💔
A year without fruit production charged the vines with pent-up energy.
This rare phenomenon is what makes my 2022 Vintage so special.
That energy is concentrated into the grapes, resulting in two years of vitality bottled into one extraordinary wine. 🍷
Due to the vines' intense recovery process, our 2022 Vintage is exceptionally limited.
This unique vintage is a rare opportunity.

Finally took the plunge 👍🏼
But the oaks can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made
Preach brother!
As an engineer, not building in redundancy or ‘fail-safe’ mechanisms is simply poor engineering. Things need to work first, then add your bells and whistles as optional
