The only automated voice calls I get are always spammers. I can't see many real people wanting to automate calling the hair salon, because then you're being fairly pretentious as if you're too busy to pick up the phone. But I

I'm of the opinion that buses are the best candidate for the first mode of road transport that can eliminate road deaths for passengers. They're driven by professional drivers who don't drink, have strict rules about the amou

I'm not totally sure why. The life living on the boarder between France and Switzerland seems pretty idyllic (but at the end of university you don't think about that so much). I got the feeling it was just that going to work where

Yes, it's notable that Brent's son first was interested enough to ask him and then stayed interested as he explained. You can't start telling your child about maths if they're busy doing something else. All you can do is
