Here's the article from 1946: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1946/08/31/hiroshima

That was a pretty unsettling thing to read, thanks for sharing though.

I recently read Atomic Habits and there was a great chapter in there about people with a strong ability to self discipline. It raised the question: are people who have a strong sense of self discipline, better about architecting their environment for success? The would lead to less distractions and more work towards their intended goal.

It's a great book, highly recommend.

This is awesome,, may thanks for this

I think the book you're talking about is Atomic Habits by James Clear. I just finished it this month and it's terrific. The story of Japanese Train Conductors stuck out to me as well. Clear also has a terrific blog, which is where many of the content for the book was pulled from.

I went to Clear Lake from 2001-2004. Lot's of friends with relations to NASA and supporting industries. Sad I can't remember the soccer ball being on display.

Any other Falcons out there remember seeing it?

Lately, I've been using https://playnoise.com/ with the following settings: Brown noise > More Options > Auto volume osc, slow, small.

If you're a fan of generators scope out http://MyNoise.net (they've also got an app) which I've found immensely useful.

Nice. Thanks!

If we don't hear back from you in 2 days, we'll send help!

At least some of that $10 went towards a good cause!

All of it went to good causes imho. :)
