Without further ado, here's what I've been enjoying the past week!
Blog Post I Wrote: The Math Behind Cutting Meat & Dairy
A short post comparing the greenhouse gas impact of cutting meat and dairy with some everyday things, like driving and light bulbs. Pretty remarkable results.
Book Notes I Added: The Checklist Manifesto - Atul Gawande
A fun, easy read that may have a big impact on your life. I now create checklists for almost everything.
Articles I'm Reading:
Here are the 85 startups from Y Combinator Demo Day 1 - TechCrunch: A good way to get a feel for upcoming tech. Make sure to read about the startups from Day 2 as well.
America's first revenue-generating drone delivery - Business Insider: While drone deliveries aren't that new (they've been used in Asia, Africa, and elsewhere for some time), it's still cool to see it happening in North America.
What is Amazon? - Zach Kanter: A deep dive on what has made Walmart and Amazon successful, and how they are similar and different.
Samuel L. Jackson Operates Like He Owns the Place - Esquire: A fun read about an entertaining personality, and one of the most prolific actors of our time.

Noise I'm Listening To: Ocean White Noise Looped
I've been experimenting with playing white noise while I sleep through a speaker. This is the track I like best so far.
Have a great week!
