I agree in theory, but it's difficult to align values with someone whose strategy is to shift blame to clients and subordinates due to lack of planning and communication skills. These people create a toxic, reactive working environment and

Incompetent people will often take politically expedient decisions that cause more harm than good but protect their positions.

The people who believe in these types of predictions don't put much stock in science anyway. Someone who doesn't believe in carbon dating isn't going to listen to an argument regarding the Earth's age based on carbon dating. If you really w

My main complaint from the book is that Isaacson injects his own opinion too strongly and too often. He writes it like a novel, with him guiding us to the conclusions he has prepared for us. Instead I would have preferred it be written like

The mobile version of this article is terrible. The scrolling "jerks" to whatever page it thinks I should be on - very strange.

No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.

You can't get something for nothing, eventually we'll have to pay some price for these services and we're finally beginning to realize what that is.

An even bigger problem than password reuse, in my opinion, is secret question formulas to reset your password. My banking site requires a strong password, which of course means that I often forget it, which means that resetting my password

The day we are required to artificially manage the world's climate to survive is the day we become inevitably doomed.

Doesn't seem like a big deal to me. I think a lot of Zuckerberg's bad press comes from his age: i.e., people are jealous of his success.

Why do you think that? Jealousy is a human emotion and has no limits, and no level of success or achievement is a guarantee to be free of desire for more.

I admit I've been curious about exactly it would look like and what would happen if the entire underground oil field were to somehow spill into the ocean at once.

I think the real metrics regarding the effects of these privacy issues are going to be much harder to measure. I don't think there will be a lot of people outright shutting down their Facebook account, but instead people will begin to self-

Demand has been lower due to the global recession -- there is no indication that oil production can't go higher than ever before, once demand starts picking back up.

I got pretty into peak oil circa 2006, when peak was supposedly already occurring or was going to occur by 2008. It will happen eventually, but I'm not going to get into playing this guessing game again.

That paints a pretty telling picture. I took the opportunity to look through my privacy settings on Facebook. It seems that applications can now access certain information about me through my friends, even if I haven't made that information

I love these things, as a gay coder I get to feel special and like I'm representing my kind with my views. ;) In my experience, it's not geeks specifically that are more accepting, but educated people in general. It seems obvious but I thin

This has nothing to do with the SEC in specific, but with workplace internet policies in general. It amazes me how many people have no idea that their internet usage at work is being tracked.

I can definitely appreciate the fears listed in step one. I am about four years into my career and have recently begun realizing that I will not surpass what I consider mediocrity without taking steps beyond my 9-5 job. Now that I have begu

This is extremely cool. I admit it scared me a little bit just how easy it was to do the geolocation. The web is about to change dramatically, again. :)
