I understand that feeling too. I feel like the digital world is becoming extremely claustrophobic, and I'm beginning to feel paranoid since the wikileaks and Snowden leaks.

I noticed a lot of younger people at my office tend to eat lunch at their desk and watch netflix ,youtube or hulu on their phones. I suspect that there is generational gap at play here as well.

That's very interesting. Alzheimer's and this kind of disassociation disorder could be affecting the same "pathway" or something. Thanks for this comment!

I think that makes sense. It would also explain the articles I see about Microsoft's new ceo Nadella. Thanks

Is it strange that people defend Mayer so much ? I find it a little strange. I'm having a hard time figuring what the baseline of criticism is for a tech ceo, and how much they get defended from it. I know Jobs, Gates, Ballmer, and Zuc

More public shaming of people. Does this behavior simply come from misunderstanding of etiquette across sites ? Facebook etiquette is different than Linked etiquette, and those are different than twitter etiquette ? How does one truly figur

TDCS is still highly experimental,there isn't much data on it. Please don't read this article, and go try it. The human brain is incredibly complex, the subtle effects or the long term effects of TDCS are still not known. If you

Yes, I'm hearing a lot of this kind of chatter in the asian american community. In the Korean and Chinese communities(where I live anyways), a lot of people are paying very very close attention to this. A lot of anger is rising, and it

Are we reaching peak clickbait ? Once this strategy's ROI goes down, I'm sure another morally void strategy will take its place. And so the cycle of business churns endlessly. I like the PT Barnum reference by aresant. Just more e

I didn't like this article. It seems more like a pr fluff piece rather than actually talking about the real technical challenges ex. the dev team faced when the first version xbox live wasn't good enough to handle the excess load.

Fascinating. Does this mean your 1400 calories of protein came from 7-8 protein drinks a day ? Where could I get more information on this that isn't "bro science" ?

Maybe a larger percentage of men are more competitive than women and are constantly trying to get a cutting edge, and are willing to even avoid eating to get a competitive advantage. I know I'm not. I like eating food, and taking a lu

I know this is a little dark, but perhaps trust and desperation are related for humans. If everyone saw tons of kids dropping dead from measles, they would feel a type of desperation to save their kid, and the amount of "trust" ne

I'd say I'm a halfer too, but a lot of physicists/philosophers say 1/3, and it really bothers me that I can't seem to sync up with world leaders. source : http://rfcwalters.blogspot.com/2014/08&

Oh cool. I've read articles fairly recently that seems to pitch Boston as the Silicon Valley of the East Coast or trying to compete with Silicon Valley for startups/talent. Do you have thoughts about that, I'd like to hear
