I'm a Warriors fan, so I don't hold a brief for Popovich, but this from Bloomberg is also worth reading: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2018-01-10/the-five-pillars-of-gregg-popovich
The worst sports journalism week of the year
Posted Super Bowl Sunday night, February 4, 2018. San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich with future Hall of Famer if he ever retires shooting guard Manu Ginobli in an undated photo by David Banks/Associate Press, via Bleacher Report. What’s a picture of a basketball coach and one of his ...

A very beautiful splash screen, however.
Where No Name Has Gone Before
Let’s say you’ve developed an app that you describe as “your mobile yard sale for beautiful things.” Where do you go in your search for names? To the final frontier, by way of the Borscht Belt. Shpock’s founders say their app’s name is a portmanteau of “shop” and “pocket.” I say it’s just one ...
In the same vein as The Path Between the Seas, Richard Rhodes' magisterial The Making of the Atomic Bomb is a gripping, endlessly fascinating account of innovation on the largest scale imaginable.

The Left Opposition Has a Budget-Balancing Plan
And it is a very good one--a much better one than the amateurish, unthought-through and far-right Simpson-Bowles or the professional but inequality-increasing and right-wing Domenici-Rivlin. Matthew Yglesias has beat me to the punch and already written about the thing: >Yglesias » The Left and ...
Wish I could have been there, Sylvia.
It's true Tracey, Frances and I haven't paid ourselves yet, but we have been taking advertising since February. We're ahead of our forecasts on revenue, but for the moment we're retaining the revenue to continue to invest in Berkeleyside.
Cybersalon on the Media Makeover
This afternoon a few pioneers in new media talked about their approach to content, revenue, and citizen participation at the Berkeley Cybersalon, held at the Hillside Club (www.hillsideclub.org) in Berkeley. Dan Gillmor, author of a book called Mediactive, which he is self-publishing and will be...
There's a software company called Semicolon Software: http://www.semicolon.com/. Sadly, someone has parked www.interrobang.com.
