China also slaughtered 20 million people in the Culture Revolution just for questioning communism.

You're kind of ignoring the giant elephant in the room - China is a authoritarian regime, and Emperor Xi recently declared himself Emperor for Life. Criticize Emperor Xi and be sent to the gulag. Not to mention the new dystopian Chinese Social Credit System. Did we forget about the millions of deaths resulting from the Cultural Revolution? Is China a country you would choose to live in for the rest of you life? How about your children?

You hear the stuff about porn addiction more and more, and it will be interesting to see how the generation raised with online porn fairs in the dating area and how they turn out. One side effect reported has been erectile dysfunction from excessive porn usage.

Nice! Are you still working in your non-tech day job, or have you switched careers? I’m thinking of learning Rails as my first foray into programming.

It's those deeper philosophical questions that we struggle with, and once we have the right 'question' the search for the answer is what drives most people. But those answers are mostly elusive or non-existent. And that makes people very unhappy.

What were you suggesting? Other than topical (still stops natural growth), there's no way to significantly boost T.

That's awesome!! How long did it take you to go from zero to launching your website? Did you do this on your free time (were your working full time)?

The hardest part is the constant jumping around between tech just to get something simple working, it's overwhelming. First you need to learn HTML and CSS...easy, oh wait you need to learn Bootstrap too, fml. Then Javascript...no JQuery...Coffeescript, Typescript? Don't forget React, it's mandatory for web development now. Back-end, well you need to learn NodeJS. Actually, all that stuff is a waste of time - just learn Ruby on Rails.

There is too much stuff coming at you all at once - it's like trying to drink from a fire hose.
