I live an internationally nomadic lifestyle. Most of the info in this doc doesn't apply to my life. I also have no dependents, so if I die, it's up to the corporations to deal with the loose ends I leave. I don't really have

Would have loved this back in my religious days, or in the brief period of time I was interested in criticizing religion. These days I'm not really interested at all in the Bible, but this is still a pretty cool idea. A little bit of a

I clicked expecting to see some science-based research about what results in good friendships. Instead I found an opinion based listicle. Not necessarily a bad article for provoking thought, but definitely more opinion than fact. I recently

I'm going to have to try using this to activate bank cards and add them to Google Pay while abroad. That's my one use case that VPNs have proven not to be enough for.

I didn't exclusively use Duolingo. I also got real world practice. But Duolingo was great for practicing in free moments, and for about 1-2 hours every day. Something that was hard to match with real world conversation partners.
