  • This is what should have been done in the first place.

    The phone (and family account) can establish age, then save a token that can be used privately by websites to authenticate age without making everyone divulge their face picture, ID, and private info to some rando 3rd party site.

    As a parent, I’m totally OK with that. I want my kid to have a phone to stay in touch with friends, look up info, and play games. You know, kid stuff. I don’t want to hand over a portal into hardcore porn, violence, and stupid bullshit before they are old enough to process it all.

    I don’t imagine any serious web or app developer wanting kids trolling around their sites, creating legal liabilities for them.





  • I have several friends in arranged marriages. What they all mention is the importance of shared new experiences. Going to a movie, restaurant, hike, or a trip together. Over time, this creates things they talk about as they get to know each other.

    Most of the marriages I’ve seen work, the man also worked against the expected stereotypes. For example, helping with cooking, cleaning, and child-rearing.
