With Ron Graham's passing, does anyone know what becomes of the famous Erdos checks? I know there's no monetary value to them but I would bet many people would just frame them to display it like a badge of honor.

You say the r/the_donald doesn't exist but it's only banned at the moment. Some search engines like Duckduckgo actually keeps a bang shortcut (!) awaiting the day when that subreddit gets unbanned. Its hard to really make som

Despite some in this thread decrying the author, judging him on his life choices, etc. I feel the main culprit in this case is still the healthcare issue. The problem in the US is that proper healthcare is tied to a job. If the author had p

Of course one can decide whether they should suffer or not. That's why there's a movement to legalize drugs for terminally ill patients. Your belief that people should suffer till the end of their days is actually quite disgusting

Is there a site equivalent to "caniuse.com" for all the different database features by product and version? If not, someone should build one. Often some DB would say they added feature X but what does that mean? Did they implement

Traveling is simply easier when you're young. For example, have you ever wanted to climb Mt. Everest? Guess what, it's going to be a lot easier in your 20s than 60s. Put it another way, the set of all places you can visit while yo
