In the US, COPPA regulations specifies that websites with age restrictions ask for age related information in a way that doesn’t tip off the person on what age is required and that it cookie the “not old” enough folks so they can’t try again when they fail. All still easily beatable.

Don’t let the title fool you. This was a gift from my father who got it in his head at one point that I only read time travel books.

Title page of “Looking Backward 2000-1887” a book originally published in 1887. This copy is from 1917.

There’s a difference between using AI to help you and getting it all written by AI. I am not interested in an AI driven presentation- I want your human ideas…new human ideas.

Ugh. I work with a lot of speakers and BEG them to not go this route.

Just for clarification- they made it to the stage with an AI written abstract? Ie this was in the program?

This is my new favorite trick - if I'm going to evening event nearby, I park there for $3 with validation for up to 3 hours. And I get a little something-something nice. Better than paying $9 at Alewife and just getting parking.

Asking for a friend: If you buy Union Square Donuts for the Boston Public Market parking validation for a business meeting, are those donuts a business expense?

OK, Smart People With Real People Budgets - what are you stocking up on? I’m not talking about getting that new cell phone or car now instead of waiting. I’m talking about the 20 pound bag of rice at Costco.

We had to get service for our oven...which no longer heats up beyond 200 degrees. The repairman says, "I've never actually touched one of these." His GUESS...the stove is from the late sixties. Making it just barely younger than me. BONUS: they still make the part!

Then there is the importance of being able to present that information - i.e. Public Speaking. Also key to being seen as a credible expert.

In 2007, I posted my first tweet, "Working on my website." At least that hasn't changed. (Albeit a veerrryyyy different website.)
