None of this matters. Don't get confused and think it does.

This is adorable advice for the self-employed snowflake:
Someone who plans every minute of their day, and every day of their week, is going to accomplish an order of magnitude more high-value work than someone who identifies only a single daily objective.
Meanwhile, people with jobs - as in, most people - don't get to play at that party.

Westbrook is a Triple Double Machine
Russell Westbrook has long been my second favorite NBA player, after Kobe. Now that Kobe's retired, he tops the list.
Following yet another feat of scoring, passing and crashing the glass, Westbrook is now averaging a triple-double (30.9 points, 11.3 assists and 10.3 rebounds). Oscar Robertson is the only player in NBA history to finish a season with such an average in 1962.
I don't know if it's possible for a human to average a triple double in the modern NBA. Westbrook is averaging one going into December. I guess nobody told him it's probably not possible. I don't think he would care anyway.

Micro.blog
Manton Reece on his late game rebranding of Snippets.today:
But again, the way forward is clear. I should put everything into launching and growing my new microblog platform. It's too much to maintain other web apps at the same time.
It's no secret that I'm a big fan of microblogging. I don't know what the finished product of Micro.blog looks like, or if it will be for me, but you can be sure that I will follow it closely.

I recently rediscovered Gaping Void, and am very glad that I did.
The silence between words is often where the meaning falls.

MG Siegler on new / good:
"New" matters more than "good", to the point where if you share something good, but old, people often wonder what you're doing. "Did you not realize that article was from six months ago, you moron?!"
Good is good, whether it's shiny and new or not. The modern world forgets that.

If your web app directions include lots of "right click" references, I'm not sure that you're keeping up with the times.
Those newfangled smartphones may not be a fad, you know.

Zapier's new Digest feature sounds fascinating.
Now you don't need to check your email, refresh a webpage, or flip your phone over every few minutes. You can switch off instant alerts, and rely on us for a regular summary of activity. Digest delivers recaps at a pace you set.
I still don't have a paid Zapier account, but the reasons to upgrade keep piling up.

Well this is just horrifying.
A 23-year-old Oregon man essentially dissolved inside a hot spring at Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming after he accidentally fell into it.
