   You don't have to go back far in time, 1918 my grandfathers on both sides lost entire families to the Spanish flu. And then some more in the wars. My granddad was a survivor, but he was scarred enough, that he exhibited some of the sym

   Every generation has told the generation younger than them that they are not pulling their weight. I am Gen X, and I genuinely feel the Millenials and Gen Z, are getting the short end of the stick. Fuck the boomers,they shat on everything.

   Social media has made it all about narcissism, display your talents 24/7, failing which you are assumed to have a total lack of talent or interest. You are following your instincts and running counter to the herd, which in itself makes

   This is pretty amazing - the fact that it can be immunity-boosting and slow age-related brain function. This is an area that needs to be explored further.

   I would tell them to fuck off and go back to sales school - these tactics don't work in today's day and age, they worked when information was opaque, you got the world's information at your fingertips now.

   That can be solved, by renting a desk or dedicated office in a co-working space. I work remotely FT, and if my company paid for it, I would get a spot in a coworking space. I have a dedicated office at home, but I work from coffee shops, br

    We always had teledoc, but it's an imperfect technology, can the doctor examine you with a stethoscope, can he check your BP, can he check your throat or blood-oxygen levels? NO? All he can do is ask for your symptoms and suggest what

    Masayoshi Son seems like someone who started believing like Midas, that anything he touches would turn to gold. I heard the guy speak, and he seemed full of himself. And he's taken Saudi money, I would not want to be in his shoes to sa

    No, they are not, if you don't have access to a bench and barbells, you can pretty much do all exercises and more with a couple of kettlebells. I use a 20 and 35 pound one. Btw, Kettlebells have been around for a long time in Russia.
