These navigating skills are something you typically develop when either navigating yourself or using a static/printed map. You learn how things are relatively positioned to one another and spatial relations, relative directions, absolu

I'm not entirely sure if having something or someone else manage the decision making process avoids getting lost. You may pass some responsibility for your journey (literally or metaphorically) off to something/someone else (the d

Surveillance just might be the best case against the idea of ubiquitous computing, at least in any real democracy.

I think the information age has really pushed the limits of what we find acceptable to leave to independent choice in democratic societies. Freedoms in democracy are being abused left-and-right to highlight specific weaknesses fundamental a

I believe everyone should have similar education systems. The more we understand about others, our own history, and ourselves, the better we can make reasonable decisions in the future. If another country chooses to paint western civilizati

I think the need arises because it's often glossed over in public education--more of a corrective reaction. Western history, especially the US in US public education, often glosses over past atrocities committed. Maybe western civiliza

I'd say the moon would be an obvious candidate to look at, though no guarantees.

I'm sure they spent well over $10k doing it which shows you one of the problems with over-engineered solutions.

At least you have poor people fighting poor people over scraps--passing the blame, responsibility and sewing division. It seems like the American way to me! /s

Trust is something that in general, seems to be waning across the board, at least here in the US. At the same time, trust provides foundations for a stable society. I believe that for people to interact regularly, they need to trust that th

This is what amazes me. I suspect there's an entire generation of developers and technologists that don't realize we used to manage infrastructure and deploy applications ontop of it. It's like as if somehow, in many eyes, th

It's probably enough for most organizations, though.

That seems like an excuse for poor behavior moreso than a deeper level of testing (testing when you know you're right but someone with more authority tells you otherwise). While possible, I'd have to think it's unlikely.

My opinion is that this, like many issues were seeing today, is largely an issue with ongoing consolidation trends. The less diversity of systems/solutions we have for a given problem or set if problems, the less chance we're prot

This is spot on, housing prices around this area have increased in some cases to insane levels but they were increasing already pre-pandemic. Overall, with a lot of research and searching, I found a good buy under a very special set of circ

I was quoted on a 30 year fixed rate mortgage at 2.62% APR with no pre-payment penalty (locked in at the mortage dip). Plan to pay it off in a fraction of the time, but it gives quite a safety net at such a low rate I couldn't pass it

I'm of the opinion that optimization is a natural enemy of variety and diversity. Our businesses, economy, and more encroachingly, culture, are dictated by the requirement for many to optimize on cost and ROI. As such, we converge on a

I won't speak to valuations because all of these values numb my brain a bit, but both Instagram and WhatsApp were obviously quite successful at the times of their acquisitions. It didn't seem surprising at all at the time that Fac

I'd say I have a lot more work thoughts invading my personal life than vice versa. When I'm at work I'm expected to pump things out and the cognative load leaves very little room for thoughts to creep in. On the other hand wh

Many however don't do this and it often reflects badly on those who do try to work normal hours. They essentially set the bar higher and unless you're more efficient, you fall behind in performance assessments or output. One envir

For me the difference is often that I'm willing to put in what is essentially unpaid overtime for tasks I love, because I enjoy it and want to see that route succeed (a bit of selection bias here). Its not that I'm less productive
