  3. Always found it curious that I never got bit by mosquitoes while living in South East Asia. Nearly everyone of my friends had dengue fever at some point, I managed to avoid it. I wasn’t sure if I just didn’t have an allergic reaction to the bites, so I couldn’t see them.

  5. Fun fact about blood flow turbulence and that boundary layer issue. In a past job, we discovered that the rate of plaque build up in blood vessels was more likely when flow was more laminar. So, we developed a helical stent (stents are usually straight) for insertion into the artery to clear the plaque. This induced higher "skin friction" through turbulent flow. This reduced the rate of plaque reformation and the helical stent also helped the stent survive in more demanding compressive locations like the femoral artery. Super cool design.

  9. I'm sure this was recorded before it happened, but the Koenigsegg Agera broke the production speed record on a public road.
