I'm at the age now where my friend's kids are getting to the sexually active stage of their life. They seem waaay tamer than what me and their parents were like at their age. I doubt that they are having more sex or even trying as

Thats what I heard too a couple of years ago - they were putting huge amounts of money into Thorium research - does anyone know how far they are away from something similar?

They say that one of the things that determines future success is the ability to defer spending and not have to have something instantly. So this is a good way to see how your child would do. Can they save up for something bigger and better

There are definitely days when I've wished my workplace had a nap room. Maybe I've had a busy few days and I just get a bit more tired than normal after lunch. It makes sense to me - if I'm tired at 2pm then I normally have a

I guess the thing is that if you are flying first or business you already get a card that lets you use the express immigration counter so you might not really need this anyway.

Maybe the US needs Musk to do to these programs what he's done to space. ie instead of going for the over-engineered super expensive option show how it can be done with the SV mindset of building things faster and cheaper. If you'

Thanks for this. I was thinking of making something similar but just for personal use as it would have been much more basic. My use case is that I've been to a couple of family events and I always have trouble remembering the names of
