I would be reluctant to risk my life and the lives of my close family members unless the tax avoidance opportunities involved were truly game-changing for me.

Has anyone yet run a head-to-head comparison of the different advice that competing AI tools offer for expecting parents and for parents of newborns, infants, and toddlers?

Unpopular take: Hiroo Onoda was kind of a quitter, too, in the end.

The main thing I remember about the last time that I got knocked out (decades ago….) was how totally sure I was exactly one second before I got knocked out that I was about to knock someone out.

What if we have the luge track pass through the short-track speedskating track so competitors all have to avoid other competitors in multiple different sports. Maybe we get biathlon involved too

things I think exactly every four years: “short track speed skating is totally bananas”

On the podium in the 50-54 heavyweight category at the Crash-B world indoor rowing championships, in third place behind Jon Powell and Dan Hofstatter. Very grateful for coaching at CRI from Anton Prodan and for help from daughter Mae. Time was 6:44.2, more than four seconds faster than last year.

Perhaps not the intended lesson of this part of the Bible, but it’s hard for me not to think of the builders of the Tower of Babel as quitters, folks who abandoned a project after a turn of events that would have been just a temporary setback for sturdier folks.
