That people are so interested in this kind of propaganda is puzzling. No politician goes around conceding or talking about losing during a campaign. Yet a refusal to concede before votes are cast is blown up as if it were a threat of violen

Could we get an eff-approved app to use during the pandemic for this purpose so state actors can stay out of it? I’d use an app during the pandemic to get notice if I need to isolate. I think they have something like this in China.

Should we ask China why they maintained and continue to maintain animal markets with a history of producing viruses that kill many people? What they fail to contain or timely warn about their creation? Maybe someone should indeed ask China.

I have an alternative algorithm to propose: 1. Input: Facial recognition and DNA sample with credit history and blood type for evaluation. 2. Output: That person is a criminal. Literally, every single human (in the US, anyhow) has or will v

The Mac mindset is to overpay for perceived top quality hardware and keep it a long time, consistent with purchased software (even at a premium price). Subscription model is ill-suited to the Mac crowd.

The lack of trust engendered when ostensibly democratic institutions restrict information about basic and important truths(?) seems like a national security issue, too.

Why do you need investment? I know there are stories of the gaxillionaire kiddos from VC to IPO like Zuck, but I suspect dragging in a lot of stakeholders with their complications, interests and control hurts more often than it helps. Frien
