Better yet when your "friends" get this as well then neither of you have to waste time actually sending anything. Just move the message into a folder too so neither of you have to waste time reading the automated message.

I think the only way to really fight this is to take it to a stupid level. Something like try to take down all videos about aliens on the platform as misinformation. I mean how can we take down all these videos but let videos about aliens b

It seems many people have a completely unscientific view of reality in that they have absolute certainty in what they believe to be true. I think there are people who are looking for North Korea level approval ratings on things. If you have

Wonderful. I am such a Taleb fan boy but have been putting off Designing Data Intensive Applications. I am starting on it this afternoon from this post. I just started on Daniel Kahneman's Noise. It will be disappointing if it isn&#x27

I just started on Kahneman's Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment 2 days ago. I mean it took so long for Kahneman and Tversky ideas on bias to disperse that we can even be talking about bias in this context. Bias isn't even the real pr

IMO "monopoly" is possibly an outdated idea. The real problem here is the natural preferential attachment that emerges with tech companies at this scale. "A preferential attachment process is any of a class of processes in wh

I just can't imagine these are not non-US Military drones. I think the problem is in the US we think of drones as the DJI phantom and not FPV drones. I mean if you look at FPV pilots like Johnny FPV or Mr Steele on youtube then extrapo
