It was an interesting and thought-provoking article, thank you . I was going to email my comment to you actually, to see if you were able to provide rebuttals or issues with my points. Thoughts welcome.

Sure, I agree with everything in your comment. I do think that technology like this will be less and less corruptible over time though - I am fairly optimistic about this use case for cameras (but also have concerns about how unpleasant job

I can see that this seems to be US based for the foreseeable future. While this is clearly the best 'bang for buck' in addressing an issue (USA: 22% of the world's prisoners), I wonder how this model, if successful, can be ro

I suppose (thinking on a more macro level than a single org's p&l) there are also opportunity costs to consider. Arable land that would otherwise be used for (leafy greens in this example) can be repurposed for other crops, prevent

My brother bought me world maps / an atlas (perfect). In terms of CS, being that it is tough to be an easy read / occasional skim, I would be looking for a book of EE & computing components (e.g. a page per component such as

The 'welcome wall' is a nice feature, but I imagine it is only as good as its input, and could be quite detrimental if new employees just saw a blank page.

I'm happy with that view and will state for the record that they weren't factual partnerships. The transit companies were also arbitrary.

How long before we simply hit 'go' on a relatively dumb AI that can methodically work through all recorded data? It feels only a few years before most of what can be mapped, will be mapped. This seems like personal data that is ha

Such a platform is desperately hard to argue for, but I suspect that a trusted, basic platform provided by governments will become defacto in many nations within our lifetimes. We do have component precedent cases to build upon in Estonia,

Agree probably mostly related to labour. But further, could IP and acquisitions be split out and components attributed to this? They file plenty of patents, and acquisition of entities such as Soundtrap could possibly have elements allocate

Similarly, tv channels on YouTube (for the UK, see BBC, C4, E4) appear to be jumping on the bandwagon with clickbait, videos empty of genuine content, misleading titles and clips repeatedly churned through different videos. This appears to

One of the biggest issues declared for many cryptocurrencies seems to be that they are 'a store of value that has no backup use', which is also a major complaint about gold, being that so little is used for electronics et al. Naiv
