Maybe they’re just wiser than us.

It makes sense, but how can you possibly reconcile that with reality. Reality is much more complex. The effects that have been sought through the manipulation of "free speech" on platforms like Twitter are so dangerous because the

Kanban, by design, was a tool used in production control. It's one of the ways Toyota made their JIT production function. I worked on the line (Toyoda Iron Works) and used a real-life Kanban implemented by the plant engineers. It was u

Man, that gets hard to swallow. Especially seeing old photos of Hamilton. I grew up nearby and for as long as I've been alive it's been large swathes of parking lots. There's still so much promise, but old downtown looked so

Densification is absolutely not unpopular with municipal voters! My current city, Hamilton, is currently fighting with the Ontario government over this matter. The mayor is a regular feature on the local news and speaks to that often. The

That was problematic for me when I was testing it out. Can’t access the window object without excessive workarounds that I couldn’t make work with my project. I ended up reusing existing react components and move it to all browser rendered

Lol. I'm sorry, but that is not what is happening here. All one has to do is look around their world the past decade. But credit where credit is due—that's a new one. "Targeted ads are for saving lives" Come on, man. edi

Love has nothing to do with money. If you truly love something, you'll commit to it anyway. Otherwise, there's probably something you love more. I recommend consulting the poets, and in particular, John Prine.

In this very thread there are people spouting pop-philosophical aphorisms who spend their working days building out machine learning algorithms to help target people in ads better. It's more than toxic, it's ailing. It's not

Attempting to transmute a metal in the material was a ritual act coinciding with the "Great Work". That tandem practice is built into the philosophy of performing the act. That is, to the "mundane" it was just chemical e

It’s legal in Canada in a limited fashion to licensed suppliers and therapists. I’ve had similar experiences and I’m excited about the possibilities. The stigma might take a while to go away for some people who have been so conditioned that

I'll admit to being an investor in the field before I say anything about it: There is a growing field of therapeutics and medicine with a focus on using similar techniques. There's one that's growing pretty quickly in the Van

I think they mean for artists of conviction.

Not exactly, but I'm working on something that I hope enables independent musicians just a little bit. TBD. That said, I'm one of those artists who was consumed by tech because I have a lifelong interest in computers. Working on a

I lived in exactly that in Liberty Village in Toronto for a period. "Lulu's and Shitzu's" it was often called. How right they were. New rental-only builds were even going up in the area, not just condos. But they were mo

I wasn't commenting on OP's comment. I was commenting on yours. Shouldn't assume people are acting in bad faith simply because you disagree. If OP's advice is as sound as you think, then it should stand up to scrutiny, n

Making the fundamental assumptions that everyone shares the same perspective on success in a career. Other world-views may take other positions. That doesn't make them wrong, or acting in bad faith.

What I said had to do with what you said. OP set out a prescription (quite literally defined adulthood for everyone), it was questioned and you criticized the questioners. I'm questioning the criticizing of the questioners. Why assume

I'm equally wary of the hubris in declaring one has defined all of the required variables for living well. A review of ages of history would tell that nobody ever nails it down that fully. Everything has its price, including a bank acc

In some cases for sure. Our speculating was about some oddball cases—like clothing stores that are never busy and only open a few hours a week. And dealing in odds or purely consignment goods. They must be hobby projects (expensive ones,

People are acting like this is a relic of the past, and I'm surprised you're surprised. I live in a small-medium-sized Canadian town at the edge of the GTHA (not the hub of economic activity, but not exactly the boonies) and many

That’s a relationship, however shallow.

That’s not really a straight comparison here. Computers are not feeling machines, they’re calculators. Humans are greatly varied, contradictory creatures with a seemingly bottomless internal mode. You will get everything under the sun from

That is the way the world has always worked. It’s about relationships, not industrial merit. Sometimes those relationships are sound and the ambitions more honest, and other times they are flaky, dishonest or downright fraudulent. And very

Indeed. There are many things computers are amazing at doing (that's why I find them fascinating and enjoy working on them from time to time)—but human empathy isn't one of them.

Yeah pretty much! I like to think more dimension to that scale is possible, but unexplored. That’s what I’m working on figuring out myself. The degree to which you end up in B can differ a lot and depends on the nature of your agreements wi
