  • Growing up I only ever saw church and religion on TV and never really thought much of it. One day as kids my mom pulled my brother and I aside and asked us, “It doesn’t really make any sense for there to be a bearded man in the sky, does it?” That’s all I really needed to hear to be science-minded for the rest of my life.

    I’m a little jealous of people who grew up with church communities though. There’s lots of good people out there, even if it’s for the wrong reasons.












  • I really loved OkCupid back before they sold out. They would share a lot of interesting data on their blog posts, and seemed genuinely interested in making successful matchups based on how your profile was presented to others. It was fun to be on there and didn’t feel like you were just being presented for “dateable” you were if you didn’t want to be.

    I also met my wife on OkCupid, but that was just before the site really took a nosedive. Pretty annoyed they deleted my account without warning, so the first message she ever sent me is gone forever.
