Sorry, you cannot take one example to prove me wrong as I didn't make claims about all reporting. Btw, you cannot be sure it's accurate unless it's your field - you may like to google for Knoll's law. I worked in media

So it looks like we are talking about the States. Meanwhile Chrome dominates pretty much globally, and it doesn't correlate with Chromebooks adoption.

The article is a blurry overworded FUD, because fear get more clicks (yes, I clicked too), and Bloomberg probably pays/evaluates by length. There's no clear issue mentioned with corp contributions, just what-if-something-maybe stu

Entire generation where? Let's say I saw exatly 1 guy with a chromebook through my life, and likely chromebooks weren't even officially sold in my country. And still Chrome is the most popular browser here.

Too bad we don't get these headlines in printed form anymore! Saving enough of them as papers throughout an average lifespan probably would made it possible to recycle promising texts into a nice tombstone.

There should be a really wide (geographically), and at the same time not too sparse network of Briar users for sending messages with it to make sense practically.

From the article it seems that they don't provide tech support neither to doctors, nor patients. And wrangling legacy systems in the field still may be worked out for much less money. The real problem is that requirements are written i

Apparently you confused me with another commenter. I don't think humans are irrational, and wholeheartedly agree that we are able to think logically. However, skipping all the stuff which wasn't intended for me I'd like to ju

What if humans rationality circuits are always subordinated to group/mating/whatever circuits? Then it's possible to be rational in math, and irrational in most other issues.

That's not true on any reasonable scale. One just can't claim 'almost built X' for every failed attempt to secure financial support for a research institute to work in more, or less X direction.

USSR used slave workforce in the recent times, and didn't care that much about feeding them. If slaves are cheaply replaceable, economic incentives alone won't likely produce any reason for liberation.

It's not like there's a reasonable historical link between Caligula, and Trump, or the comparison serves any enlightening purpose. It's "we hate him that's why". Looks really unpleasant when you came looking fo
