It was great, he is a very loving dad. He taught me a lot along the way. We spend a lot more time talking now that he's retired and we live on opposite sides of the globe. He does regret it that he did not spend enough time with me. Bu

I remember this incident from my 8th grade, this one kid was held back a year, because he failed. He was a typical bully - harassed the kids and teachers, constantly got into trouble. I was a small, skinny kid, the class joker, academically

I read another article which mentioned "overnight hike". Thanks for clarifying that.

All the money going to CRUD apps, easy to build and sell. Hard problems take a long time to solve, no VC wants to invest and have his money locked away for a long-time horizon. Hence we need government sponsored innovation, insane discoveri

Completely nonsensical article - making broad generalizations without evidence, ascribing "penny pinching" to all kids of behaviors.
