I found many bugs and lack of features, for example, there is no advance search, you can only search by names, not company or place or gender? Have not figured out how to send messages to my friends, or do I have to share something only wit

'Social' is the new 'cloud' buzzword. What does it mean to have social products? To tap into a users social network? That is what Facebook offers to any company that wants, and that is why 2/3rds of websites now have a Like and Facebook Con

Its refreshing with competition, perhaps even on the privacy parts different actors could make each other respect their users more. I dont like the UI of flickr (cant even use it, and Im a comp-sci major) and it doesnt integrate well with F

I distrust Facebook so much that I dont have a news feed, I dont have a way to share my pictures (because who wants to share 1024x768 resolution pictures with their friends? ffs why do I then have a 15mp camera?) and I have skype to chat wi

Maybe he is just an opportunist. And he is young, Ive seen people in their late 20s with more opportunistic and naive behaviour. Especially those "I have a startup" and acting like they are the pope. Just like the majority of people geohotz

You dont need sci-fi to ponder what happens when a superior technological culture meets a less technologicaly developed culture. Look at Europes "discovery" of the americas, and for that matter, look at how the nomads of the world react whe

Technology is also a sociological concept, it is in the minds of the people, it is not merely the products such as blades and core i7s. All those products of technology are the result of a specific culture, it is the result of specific soci

Thank you Sal for great videos! You are inspiring me to study maths. I have a Ba in history and agree with the criticism raised in the article, however I also think it is a problem that many people dont even have a basic scaffold of world e

Yet the stated goal of history is not to in any way attempt re-telling of The Great Truth© . The goal is not to determine what is objective fact. There is no such thing, not even in natural sciences such as physics. Dont forget that.

Even if history is presented as a perspective, why choose Khans perspective? Why not choose another perspective? You missed the bigger picture of the article, which is that a single entity never should control re-telling of events. There sh
