I am not a fan of electronic voting as it exists today. But, I expected to see someone advocate a blockchain-like trail to ensure election integrity. Also, why don't we have automatic voter registration? Let's pay this cost once

Has anyone successfully connected sports journalism with the Patreon model? Advertising in a world of infinite choice seems like a losing proposition. People have tried subscriptions in the past, but it seems people hesitate to pay for a

If there is one thing I've learned from friends and acquaintances who have trained for and run marathons it is listen to your body. Stop when it starts to hurt. If you try to push through pain, you are more likely than not winning th

This sentiment may be unpopular here, but I think it is probably difficult to pull this off and have a family simultaneously. Having the luxury of following your interests comes from someone putting a roof over your head and food on your p

It seems more and more the case that employers are not willing to train employees. This is not surprising given the trend away from long-term obligations. Although, I wonder if this is reinforced in some way (employment/tax policy, l
