I met Pascal Hitzler on a few occasions, not long after he ended up relocating from Germany to Ohio to work at Wright State. He was a rare bright spot in always trying to bridge the gap between theory and application in the SemWeb communit

I was "stuck" working with a bunch of leading academics and researchers on a SemWeb project using OWL/RDF, in collaboration with DARPA and the US Department of Defense, around 2008-2009. You are absolutely correct that they a

Curious to hear what current California residents think about this video. My suspicion is many will view it as dramatically overblown. Another question for residents of CA: As a resident of Colorado, I've been very happy with my gover

Again, you are putting thoughts and words in my mouth. When did I say masks were bad? I was an early advocate for masks in March, when Fauci was still lying to the public with a well-intentioned strategy of preventing a run on N95 masks.

Your political bias is obvious and evident. Why don't you compare the US to countries that aren't island nations or quasi-island nations, like the EU? Do you think the EU doesn't believe in science? You also ignore the fact

The governmental response to the pandemic forced the issue. The virus didn’t magically halt economic activity. Governments did, and we need to keep that in mind, because depending on the state, the government response was often far too ha

You make a good point, but keep in mind that nothing will create a culture of distinctiveness from the Fed and group-cohesion within a state/region than imposition of rules that are popular nationally, but highly unpopular in said regi

Great article. It’s not malice, it’s indifference. Googles execs and veeps don’t care about small businesses, because most are career ladder climbers who went straight from elite colleges to big companies. Conformists who won’t ever know

Agreed. To me parler is like a cult. It's small enough where nobody can pretend it's religion. Facebook is like Scientology, they got big enough and rich enough to where they could influence the proper people and get the free p

Just to be clear, there's a lot of researchers making money that aren't producing squat. There are many AI ethicists I admire, and there are many that can't code, can't produce, and just spend their time getting into ar

The worst part about the giddy, gleeful way in which they are shutting down these echo chamber apps is the complete lack of thought as to how this impacts and further radicalizes the users. I have a brother who is into Qanon and Alex Jones

I grew up in a family whose income put us below poverty line. I didn't have to pay for college, due to Pell grants, yet she thinks that in the USA, a good student can't go to college without money. That's just not a thing.
