AI Thread Summary
Many individuals experience a disconnect between their productive daytime activities and their evening routines, often feeling lost about how to unwind or engage meaningfully after work. Common practices include spending time on social media or reading news articles, which frequently fail to provide relaxation or fulfillment. Some people balance their time between hobbies, such as working on personal projects like robotics, playing video games, or spending quality time with loved ones. Engaging in challenging subjects like math and physics can also be a way to stay intellectually stimulated. Establishing a routine, such as changing clothes and practicing hygiene after work, is noted as beneficial. Additionally, incorporating regular exercise into the weekly schedule is highlighted as a significant factor in enhancing overall well-being and productivity.

Facebook, news, followed by a realization it's not productive or relaxing :)

Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
Thread 'My experience as a hostage'
I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
