Gen Z has a bright future. The American worker will... The global gen Z is screwed, to be fair. Europe isn't good. China isn't good. The third world is the third world. They may do well, but doing well from a low start is lac

3D UI doesn't work when you are playing a video game because you are ultimately using a 2D interface. Navigation through 3D worlds is clumsy and terrible in video games, but with VR it's just like your everyday life. I don't

The beauty of it is, you use pass through cameras and you can see your keyboard and you can see your mouse directly, while still having access to the full virtual experience. I expect people to be using a mouse with this stuff, and a keyboa

It would be a real shame if this held technology back in a substantial way. VR offers a ton of opportunity for a more productive work environment. Infinite space to work in, an active working day instead of sitting in a chair, etc etc etc

> Get rid of private schools There are good steps that can be taken, but objectively harming some students is not the way forward. Improve public schools and try to get more money into the poor regions. Do not erase private ones.

Safer indeed. I do not worry about people spying on me, I worry about empowering China, Russia, North Korea, Iran, or any such country that would happily eat our lunch if given the opportunity. Do not empower people who would happily screw

I cannot emphasize enough that you should not purchase some no name super cheap Chinese product and place it at the center of your home network. It will be a little bit more expensive, but you should probably purchase from a more reputable

In the workforce - the real answer is that the 1x engineers really really aren't operating at full capacity. You assume all parties give it their all. They rarely do. Get through college Do what you have to in other to get the job. D

In this case I'm thinking of the pixel series, where Google owns the stack and should be able to make a phone without issues, but has consistently failed to do so. Not just pixel either. Their slate project had similar problems.

This seems really defensive and has a lot of misdirection. Yes, all companies will die, but Google appears to be over that hill. That's significant. Google should be able to make amazing phone hardware, not praised because they do bet

It's thicker, but is there a USB-C 2.5gbps dongle on the market? I can't imagine someone opting for this sort of solution over a dongle.

I think where these guys made a mistake was not designing some sort of back slot for things like this where you could put a slab on the back of the laptop. Slab on the back would have enough space, it wouldn't look so weird and cheap,

We legislate safety standards that require cars to get heavier to meet them. The best course of action would be to correct our standards to make lightness and damage to other vehicles part of the safety requirements as well.

The end of oil cannot and will not come due to its (market) price. As electrification happens demand for oil will drop and oil will get cheaper. In a world without externalities this would lead to a state of having a mix of both. But we ne

I think yes, not doing this at all (for 4 years until election cycle) is a better decision than making us less prepared to deal with this immidiate future.
