Back in Chicago as a stay-at-home dad and small business owner. Expect some infosec/privacy/safety, 3D printing, and politics.

I like my Outlander PHEV, but it's a stretch to claim it seats seven. And I keep having to either accept rough cuts from the store panel saw, break down sheets in the parking lot, or shell out for delivery.02 May 2026 22:42 +0000at://did:plc:l3efsnzegvrsoek3tr2lknal/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkvppmfmhc2chttps://bsky.app/profile/justinschuh.com/post/3mkkmo2rzas2pThe 13yo has city track qualifiers today.

PE owns at most 10% of housing stock, and only because NIMBYs inflated prices so much by blocking new housing for decades. NIMBYs are the real problem. PE sucks, but don't be distracted from the real problem. https://www.npr.org/sections/planet-money/2025/09/09/g-s1-87699/private-equity-corporate-landlords22 Dec 2025 22:54 +0000at://did:plc:l3efsnzegvrsoek3tr2lknal/app.bsky.feed.post/3mamdcdkdlk2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/justinschuh.com/post/3mambaea4es2vWhen the CBS deal first went down my wife asked what bothered me so much about Bari Weiss.
