If you have ad blockers you cannot read the article. If WIRED wants to hard code ads I will look at them and sometimes click. I don't want trackers, beacons and such and it is those items I am blocking; not their ads.

Farcical comedy I know but imagine if one day you go on some sneezing rampage due to allergies on some sidewalk 5 minutes before a horrible murder took place and you're suddenly a suspect! At least that is my fear.

Perhaps Beyonce and Marvel have done more for the USA in regards to culture, values and reputation than tanks, drones and torture has? IMHO, A good President would tell our trade reps to keep one eye closed on this matter and perhaps consid

The trouble with using software as an example is that software is so damn fluid and ever changing whereas notes on saxophone will always be played in the same fashion within the same tonal range. It;s measurable; software is always a work i

What if he had leaked it to the press after NASA declined his valid argument. I bet the launch would not have happened but imagine what the end result would have been for NASA management if they did launch after he made the warning public?

Gawker made"...In 2009 $60 million in advertising revenues and more than $30 million in operating profit. ..." Wikipedia When it goes to appeal I am sure the number will be negotiated downward or nobody wins and Gawker closes.

Immigrants are awesome and unfortunately exploited but don't you think an orderly immigration is far more effective than having borders Zerg rushed?

I wish they would stop calling it ad blocking. It's a misnomer, or more accurately, a lie. If they want to run a hard coded ad within their site with no trackers, beacons, and privacy violators, I totally fine with it. I am not blockin

Perhaps a closer look should be paid to boxing, MMA, soccer... (actually light weight cycling-type helmets in soccer might make some pretty cool goals.)

I agree with you and would like to double down: Intelligence is defined as "...the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills." Even if Alpha-Go could play chess, manage air traffic control, and play GO the same time, it wo

I am curious, as an admitted alcoholic what is it like during the holidays when Billboards, radio commercial and internet ads play up alcohol as a gift or good time? Do you find alcohol tempting, annoying or are you sanguine about it?

Ad blocking is a rhetorical misnomer. It's not ad blocking, it's malware blocking. I have no problem with ads and would allow to be subjected to them if cookies, trackers, beacons, and privacy invaders were not inserted into my pe

It came close... For me individual lines do this not the paragraph at large but sometimes I accidentally jump ahead. There is a font called "Dyslexie" which is the only typeface I would use if I had to read a speech aloud. https:

This study states (corrections if I am wrong) that there are plus or minus 80-billion-billion or 14-thousand-billion-billion terrestrial planets (similar to earth) orbiting around a sun with a friendly temperature that is an average age of

Article mentions that only 2% of Facebook employees are of sub Saharan descent. That's pretty damn low and unfortunately that is systemic for a lot of tech companies. If they really wanted to avoid free speech, chalkboard, issues, they

No offense taken. Idealist me thinks that Wall Street should invest in those companies they believe in and wish to assist in achieving their business goals. As an exchange, the investor shares in the profits and enjoys the satisfaction that

Build upon an existing or your very own idea but don't make it a one-off. explore at least a dozen different ways to make it better. Artist Winslow Homer would do sketch after sketch, study after study, before he did his final "on

I am not a sociologist, political scientist, or an economist. It appears that China is too big to govern and has become a diseconomy of scale. China has 160 cities with over 1-million people in them (US has 10 cities) and I think it's

That is interesting. I am presuming that the rhetoric regarding her $250,000 per hour speech fee may have potential donors wondering why they should send money to a rich candidate.
