Alternative funding designs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Kickstarter uses a clever financing model where every backer\u2019s money is returned if the full funding goal is not met. But this innovation is only one of many dozens of possible funding models, and dozen more ways of collaborating, or governing projects. Allo Mechanisms<\/a> is a handy gallery of 60 different possible \u201ccapital allotment\u201d mechanisms, already invented, that might work for your particular needs. Some of them already have implementations. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Live TV streams from around the world<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tv.garden<\/a> lets you spin a globe and watch live TV streams from around the world \u2014 no subscription needed. While channel surfing, I got caught up in watching Christian music videos in Senegal, Algerian news, and TV psychic readings in Bulgaria. It\u2019s utterly captivating and transportive. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best condiment<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I finally tried Fly By Jing’s Sichuan Chili Crisp<\/a> and now I understand the hype. This umami-rich oil is packed with crunchy bits of crushed chili pepper, garlic, shallots and preserved black beans that add intense flavor and mild heat to everything from eggs to ice cream. The tingly numbing Sichuan peppercorn is what makes it addictive. While some may balk at the price for 6 ounces, a little goes a long way. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best coffee ice cream<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Now that there are over 600 Trader Joe\u2019s stores in the US, I feel okay to recommend a favorite item from there. I think their Coffee Bean Blast Ice Cream<\/a> is the best grocery store ice cream you can buy, or at the very least, as Trader Joe\u2019s claims, \u201cit\u2019s the very best coffee ice cream available anywhere on planet Earth.\u201d I\u2019m going to fight for that. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discover your attachment style<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This NPR LIFE KIT interview<\/a> features Dr. Amir Levine, a psychiatrist and neuroscientist, discussing attachment theory in relationships and includes a short quiz adapted from his book to help listeners discover their own attachment style. Dr. Levine emphasizes that attachment is a biological need and that the four attachment styles \u2014 secure, anxious, avoidant, and anxious-avoidant \u2014 are normal variations in human behavior rather than pathologies. I had heard of attachment theory before and even worked on my own attachment issues before getting married, but what I learned from this interview that I didn’t fully understand before is that addressing attachment issues is a two-person process, not just an individual responsibility, and that becoming more secure often involves surrounding oneself with secure individuals. I took the quiz, and it reported that in relationships, I’m 100% secure, 25% avoidant, and 13% anxious. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This collection of Hacker Laws<\/a> is aimed at software developers, but it provides insights for anyone trying to build or change things. Here are three:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gall’s Law says grand reinventions usually fail \u2014 working complex systems can only evolve from working simple systems, never from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
