How to Heal Faster – Gear Patrol
Outside of the comic book world of Wolverine, Sabretooth and the Incredible Hulk, there’s no such thing as magic healing. If you get sliced , bruised or generally wounded , it takes us far longer to get back into fighting condition than our make-believe counterparts. But, thankfully, there are things you can do to improve your body’s ability to heal that don’t involve genetic manipulation. It’s more than popping a magic pill or downing a miracle elixir — it’s far more of a lifestyle that will give your body the ability to bounce back. Here’s how to get yourself back in the game by decreasing down-and-out time.

User Experience for Product Designers — Medium
Five simple steps product designers can use to build better web apps.
On small teams where time resources are limited user experience can often be overlooked. Over the past few months I’ve tried to develop a low impact UX cycle that designers and project managers can use to improve the quality of web apps without adding a lot of bloat to a project. This article will be written from the viewpoint of an app that is currently in-use. The UX process will vary slightly for a new product but the same basic principles exist. Below is a five-step process going through a development cycle that defines a detailed look at best practices in the UI/UX discipline.

During our last team meetup, we had a “guac-off”, where 2 of us made our own recipes of guacamole, and then everyone “blind taste tested” (aka devoured them, without knowing who made which one), and we voted. Mine won! In the end it was the texture (more chunky) that won it for me. Someone asked for the recipe, and this is the best I could give them:
I start out by scooping, slicing and mashing up 1 avocado, and leaving one to the side. Then I’ll chop the onion, tomato, jalpeño and cilantro, and get that all in there. This is also when the garlic goes in (if you’re using it). While adding these, I’ll mix it and mash it a little bit, just to make sure it’s all mixed through. Now scoop, slice and throw in the other avocado, then add lime juice, salt and pepper. Mix it up (mashing a little more in the process) and keep adding salt/pepper until you get the taste you’re after. You can also tweak with more jalapeño or lime juice at this point, which is where a lot of the taste comes from.

I wonder if this could be hacked together from iBeacons somehow, or if it’s too much the reverse of what they’re intended for? Does this already exist? Is there a better/simpler solution already available?

Couldn’t have timed it better. Pre-check with 0 line. Premier boarding with immediate walk-on to plane. If only all travel was like this!

Welcome reception at #wpvip. Great conversations and great kickoff to the event.

When we look at an Apple Watch or some other Wearable device, we see an object of lust, a cool gadget. When the internet looks at that smartwatch or fitness tracker on your wrist, it sees another endpoint — an extension of itself. The network delivers information to that endpoint in the form of beeps, buzzes, and notifications; but it also draws information from these devices and the bodies to which they are attached.

Why You Should Take Your Kids Out of School
In early September, in a clapboard house situated on 43 acres just outside a small town in northern Vermont, two boys awaken. They are brothers; the older is 12, the younger 9, and they rise to a day that has barely emerged from the clutches of dark. It is not yet autumn, but already the air has begun to change, the soft nights of late summer lengthening and chilling into the season to come. Outside the boys’ bedroom window, the leaves on the maples are just starting to turn.

In case you haven’t heard, doomsday is coming—more droughts, floods, famine, class warfare, entitled children, and, brace yourself: a bourbon shortage! Yes, traditional Kentucky distillers didn’t predict or prepare for this Mad Men-inspired mixology epoch. And if it continues on this trajectory, thousands of years from now geologists and archaeologists will be able to identify the bourbon-free era in the absence of fancy rectangular bottles in the remains of fallen civilizations.

You arrive at work. You sit down at your desk and you scan your inbox for potential disasters. Two mails pique your interest. You write brief responses to nudge the engineers in the right direction. Nothing else is urgent so you walk to the kitchen to get breakfast. You sit down with three fellow engineers who are also working on your product. During conversation over the course of breakfast, you discover that you and Phil are working on exactly the same problem, so you decide that Phil is going to take point and you two will chat once he’s done.

The Hidden Brilliance of Late Risers — Medium
If you’re a late riser, there’s a good chance that you have, at one point, been made to feel inferior to the seeming moral superiority of your early riser friends and colleagues.
Unlike early birds (people who have a genetic tendency to go to bed and wake up early), late risers, also known as night owls, have a natural tendency to go to bed late and sleep even later. And that’s just fine. Although you may sleep through the early morning hours, which many early birds claim are their most productive of the day, for night owls these productive hours manifest themselves much later in the day.
