You know when you’re playing with a little kid and they fake punch you, and you dramatically go flying across the room and they laugh, they’re proud of themselves, and you laugh? Yeah the aliens playing that game with us right now.

I had seen reports that the balloon was the length of 3-4 school busses but it appears that was misreported and just repeated. The PAYLOAD was the length of 3-4 school busses. I haven’t been following this much until today/ vaguely a

Fun fact. The military started using AR at the start of the Iraq invasion. Product was essentially Google Glass with facial recognition against a static/ local dataset (stored on device), but in 2004 - for identifying wanted suspects a

I'm genuinely curious here - how old are you? People bring up this theory time and time again - since judge Thomas Penfield Jackson decreed the same thing in 2000, which was overturned. Having been a former Microsoft employee working o

Congress just gave the military something like $75m-$150m to award to Microsoft to improve the hololens for battlefield readiness. It started as a high end niche business product. Demo'd well for the military. Business device shoehorne

That is an extremely misleading headline. AltSpace and the geospatial anchor teams have been axed. Lots of folks were reduced across MR and HoloLens, but the teams weren’t completely fired

This article is framed as if this is a new trend. My cities police department has been handing out steering wheel locks to Kia and Hyundai owners since last summer.

I feel that. I had one job for years. CEO threatened to disparage me if I quit, and they were very well connected. I was pretty miserable and do not even realize how miserable I was. I figured I had just started losing my hair at a young ag

Exactly. They still think after he pumped and dumped Doge coin that he’s going to pump it again one day, and they’ll be rewarded for faithfully HODL’ing. The older I get the more I think established organized religion may not be such a bad

Consider that each new iPhone and iPhone size required retooling entire portions of the manufacturing line. And by retooling I mean physical tools - the shoots that deliver the right sized screw to the individuals assembling that part, sold

Literally everyone on the internet is aware of the UFO disclosures and congressional inquiry, even non tech people. You have to have lived under a rock to have missed it, and it doesn't make you special for having heard about it.

Turns out they didn't actually give all the VR devs VR headsets and no one had the guts to say "Uhhh hey Mark? We actually never put together a procedure for giving all the VR engineers and designers a VR headset"
