Mr Musk has now reached a settlement with the SEC which gives him 45 days to leave his role as chairman of Tesla, a position to which he cannot be re-elected for three years. The SEC initially wanted to ban him from working on the board of any …

I discovered DuckDuckGo recently when I started seeing an increase in hits on my website coming from DuckDuckGo search results. So far I've liked the results for searches I've done on it and haven't felt it to inferior to Google so far.

Wife and I will be embarking on a 18-24 month #vanlife around the UK and Europe early next year living in a campervan. We've sold the house and will be using funds from that for the trip. We were planning on doing the trip in retirement but given …

It's been a week.....

From the best documentary on modern social and intellectual development. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwZ0ZUy7P3E

The man who wrote one of the top personal finance books of all time has warned we could be heading for the "biggest crash in world history". Robert Kiyosaki, author of the 1997 bestseller Rich Dad Poor Dad and "self-proclaimed troublemaker", has a …

Why raked? I would have thought a 70's superbike would have lazy enough steering by modern standards.

I'm with @Shay on this one but it does raise questions whichever way you look at it. People who deny these atrocities usually claim some sort of tin foil hat consipiracy for them being fake rather than 'unintentially being wrong' as Zuckerberg …

The bigger question is, Is Nitrogen Cold Brew Coffee peak hipster or is there more to come?

Hmmm, youtube embedding doesn't work?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZD982yrmx4

'Poppy' grunge like STP does it for me. This is keeping my work day going today.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sT1DdO3SISg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjJL9DGU7Gg

I watched episode 10 last night which in theory was the grand finale. Bernards multiple timelines are really close together but they still confused the hell out of me.

Hopefully this will lead to fruitful new directions for Alzheimers research https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3YDFVdsz6E > Alzheimer's research could be set for a shake up after two studies suggest that scientists may have been missing the …

;) it was actually in the bit I quoted here so you didn't even need to click on the link. @Chris, how do you do the quote tabbed grey bit?

Yep well aware of El Nino and La Nina, but actually as the article goes on the say these models are getting less and less accurate and this new 'New Zealand index' is more accurate.

Pharmaceutical and chemical giant Bayer has bought what is probably the worlds most hated agricultural company, Monsanto, and as part of the merger the Monsanto name will cease to exist. Monsanto made headlines many times for it's work in …

Camping in the Urewera Ranges earlier this year.

This is an interesting correlation. I don't know what the winter sea water temperatures have been like but over summer New Zealand sea water was warmer than usual. "If winter and spring sea surface temperatures around New Zealand are below average …

That last episode was fantastic, but yes following Bernard gets pretty confusing. There's some interesting discussions on dual timelines that date right back to the first season that I hadn't even picked up on, based around which version of the …

Anyone watching it? It's a pretty amazing series.

Thanks Chris, Yaypie. I don't have a strong leaning either way, I was just curious about the thinking behind it for Cake.
