This is the devil's advocate argument that I've heard: Police are today facing an unprecedented situation: tech-savvy criminals are able to lock up evidence such that it can never be obtained even with a warrant. I mean sure you

"Conspiracy theory" is IMHO an intellectually lazy term in that as normally used it promotes blanket dismissal of an entire category of thing based on prejudice. Conspiracies can and do happen. If that weren't the case, the F

Spy agencies are good but they're not omniscient. It's entirely possible that things happened that the CIA didn't know about, especially back before spy satellites were a common thing.

I still have quite a lot of trouble with the whole Internet-connected always-on microphone in my house thing. What's to stop Amazon from recording everything? Or some hax0r who finds a way to MITM or otherwise compromise this device? G

These are almost what were called "coffin hotels" in Gibson's Neuromancer, but there at least they were cheap. Nobody writes cyberpunk fiction anymore because it's no longer fiction.

"Life is normal at the early stage," said Ganesan. "But late stage people are very cautious." This is what I've been predicting. Seed and early stage has always been astronomically high risk, and so that's more

It was a while back and The Goog is not delivering, but I do distinctly remember this being an issue and that enabling this extension fixed it. But maybe only certain MBPs are affected.

Apple is optimizing for the mainstream of the market, which mostly never repairs things (except using licensed repair outlets or the original store) and values slimness and lightness and appearance above repairability. They're also loc

Recent Macs have a wifi chip that requires WME/WMM extensions (Wireless Multimedia) in most cases. For most APs it will have issues if these are switched off. Rumor is it's a chipset thing not a software thing.

I've seen it this way for a while: tablets occupy an uncanny valley between a phone and a desktop/laptop. They are too restricted/jailed and limited in UI scope to replace the latter, and they are too bulky to replace the for

You should make a Magic: The Gathering style card based RPG around the startup scene. That would be seriously disruptive.

Facebook has found this odd niche that involves being utterly creepy and obnoxious but very hard to get rid of. It's like the corporate version of a crazy manipulative codependent "friend" who you can't get out of your l

It's a complicated problem though. Everyone wants to make as much as possible, but everyone also wants (economically speaking) everyone else to make as little as possible. A union job is great for me. But it's bad for me if my p

They seem to want us to be like Mexico, where the rich live in private enclaves with good services and everyone else lives in a slum. Mexico, last I checked, is not a world power. World powers have healthy populations and solid infrastructu

Socially it has. Economically it really hasn't though I think that may change unless the decline of the American interior reverses on its own.

Malware back then was usually pranks. Today it's mostly run by organized crime. Money changes everything. I wrote DOS viruses when I was fifteen or sixteen. Most of them didn't do anything or did silly little pranks, but it's
