NEW: Mark DeRosa says this was a tough loss to Venezuela, but that he has “absolute faith” Team USA can bounce back in Game 2

Over a decade ago, @FiveThirtyEight published a clever methodology for estimating someone's age based on their first name.
I turned it into an interactive tool, the Name Age Calculator. Type in "Jennifer" and discover when that name peaked in 140+ years of Social Security data (spoiler: 1970s babies). It went semi-viral and got picked up by major outlets.
I've kept it running all these years because people genuinely enjoy it. It's one of those simple projects that reminds me why I love building things: when data tells an interesting story, people want to engage with it.
Try it out: name-age-calculator.randalol…
Drop a comment with the most surprising name age you discover. I'm curious what you'll find.

Democrats policies are more popular and beneficial to more people. Surveys consistently show this. As a marketer having the better product is a good place to start from. But you still have to nail the marketing.
“Everything is shit” he says from his poolhouse before his nanny interrupts to tell him shes leaving in his Tesla to pick up his kid from private school on another day the stock market reached all time highs
Sometimes I feel really unproductive on Sundays when I haven’t gotten out of the house before 11am but then I realize a lot of (most?) people are about to watch football for 6 straight hours

If you’re having a bad day just remember that the Salzburg airport has a counter for people who flew to Austria instead of Australia
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
While people often confuse Australia and Austria existence of a help desk in the Salzburg Airport appears to be a joke/hoax from 9gag, made popular by a recent Tiktok.
