Ask HN: What have you been curious about?
Asking, prompted by this thread: "Just for Fun. No, Really" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41496725

If you are anything like me, you will have about five answers at any given point in time for "What are you curious about?". And that set will change depending on the day of the week. Or, also like me, you may be having that sort of week where you (mistakenly) "know for sure, beyond a shadow of doubt" that you have lost the curiosity directive. Basically, you might immediately (and once again, mistakenly) feel like a flake or a failure or some horrid in-between. I sure do.

Luckily, arguably, a more interesting, revealing, and kinder question is; "What have you been curious about?".

So... GOTO post title.
