2 things:
(a) I see MSN still hasn't lost their habit of spreading their "[N] reasons why XYZ" type of articles over [N+M] pages (where M are just extra ad pages). So make that 19 reasons.
(b) Was there anything in there that was actually unique to men, and could not equally apply to women? Besides, aren't we're all supposed to be gender-fluid now?

Black holes generating enormous power has been around in science fiction for a while (Arthur C. Clark - Imperial Earth (1976)). More recent in the Star Trek Universe with the Romulan D'deridex-class warbird uses an artificial quantum singularity as a power source for its warp propulsion drive.
from the Wikipedia article ( Black hole starship - Wikipedia[^])
" A black hole weighing 606,000 metric tons (6.06 × 108 kg) would have a Schwarzschild radius of 0.9 attometers (0.9 × 10–18 m, or 9 × 10–19 m), a power output of 160 petawatts (160 × 1015 W, or 1.6 × 1017 W), and a 3.5-year lifespan"
That's a lot of power from a tiny space.

When visiting a friend last weekend, I mentioned as a side remark that lots of people never gave a thought to the name 'Edge' - similar to the old days when lots of people using the Lynx browser never associated it with anything but a big, wild cat. My friend knows a lot of math, including a fair amount of graph theory. Yet, he gave me a puzzled look: What do you mean? Is that name supposed to mean anything special?
Well ... Yes. Like Lynx. And the little Ford Ka (that's some years ago, isn't it?). And the arrow below the Amazon text in the logo. One common brand of Californian raisins imported to Norway had the brand name 'Sun Maid' (with a picture of a young woman carrying a basket of grapes) - my mother never ever would accept the idea that 'Sun Maid' was a play of 'Sun made', ripened in the sun. Marketing folks come up with lots of bright ideas in this class, and 99% of the audience ignores/overlooks it. I am sure that they are prepared for that  .
I guess that a fair share of the Lounge audience has had their share of graph theory. So let me ask: Have you ever been considering the name 'Edge' as related to hypertext graphs? Or are you considering it to be just a random name picked out of the blue?
(If you care to indicated whether you feel familiar with graph theory, that would be an interesting additional piece of information!)

In my part of the world*, a dissected plateau, there are many clifftop lookouts and walking trails.
There is a lot of signage encouraging people to keep away from the edge, which I consider excellent advice.
* The coincidence between my postcode and an ancient IBM RJE device/protocol I find amusing.

Reminds me of a service desk related software made by my earlier company in India. The product (launched in the late 90's) was aptly named as:

As in Edge computing, vertices, etc. Perhaps, it's an interesting thought 
So it's not referring to the rounded corner design? Micro soft edge? :P
