Someone convinced me to study computer science 20 years ago. The career possibilities with good money and easy work have put the rest of life on easy mode (for now). Even meeting my wife and having my family would never have happend without that decision.

Thumbs up for the Silo series. Even though it’s not in outer space, many other boxes tick: multi-generation, environmental systems, spoiled planet …

Insisting things like tax returns or household maintenance should be taught in school.

The goal of Education is not to train you fit into the system you happen to grow up in, but should provide the foundation (litaracy, STEM, art …) and awaken the curiosity in yourself to become lifelong learner. That will develop society, and not a bunch of drones doing their tax returns and changing tires every season.

iPhone and iOS because I’m used to it, have other gadgets from the ecosystem (MacBook, iPad, Watch) and my employer prefers iOS and well supports macOS.

Being proud of not knowing things, and having no desire to change that.
