That's not true. Healthcare has always been expensive. Even before regulations. Hundreds, even thousands of years back. The same regulations you're whining about made snake-oils illegal and other quacks from practicing on people w

Do you also think it deals with "belief" of something new and fantastic. I might be reaching on this... and this idea is like a grand total of 2 minutes old in my head. But take crop circles. Over and god damn over, they're p

Insert old man voice "If I had things my way, making hype about anything would be punishable by death." Not going to lie. If someone ran for president on just that platform alone, where it's illegal to make any overblown prom

It’s an overpriced dehumidifier. Pulling humidity out of the air. It’s not magic. It’s not new. There is water vapor in the air, every middle schooler knows this. They are in Hawaii. An outdoor dehumidifier will work great in a water abunda

Just google “water from thin air”. This has been done quite often the past 15 years. It’s an overpriced dehumidifier that is working outdoors. 1. They’re in Hawaii. It’s a little humid there. So... yea. Dehumidifiers will collect quite a bi

I didn't even think of that, but you're right. The whole "evangelist" term, for tech, really did start popping up around the iPod era. My first conscious memory was the lead up to Adobe CS5. At the time, I thought it was

Are we going to start a betting pool as to why? I put $20 on DDoS, but I'm hedging $5 that someone spilled their drink on something important and quickly got out of there before anyone noticed.

As much as I wish you were correct, but I don't know if this is the "middle". It's all speculation. Hell, maybe tomorrow will be the day that social media will be banned and punishable by death by the Hague. But, I perso

More mentality than product, but I’m tired of companies not focusing on solving problems well and focusing more on generating a religion around their tech. I feel like prior to the iPod, things either worked well or didn’t. Now, you can put

Hold up. I think everyone is getting caught up on the idea of "freedom". Capitalism does not grant you any shred of personal freedom from the bottom of the chain to the tippy-top. The higher you get, the less personal freedom you

Rails don't go to every department store or grocery store. Don't go to any that I know of. Rails are terrible for on-demand supply chain due to lag time for loading, unloading and then logistics to ship again on a truck anyways.
