Food for thought/discussion: I don't see what prevents the author from having the experience they had back in the days. Tcp, http and ipv4 are still standing strong. I am sure there are more than plenty people around who would lik

Can we fix the title of the article please? Landlords raise rents up to 40%. Rents aren't raised by themselves nor are they some sort of natural phenomenon. Real people perform these raises to benefit from the rest of the population th

I really don't follow. Can anyone enlighten me? I used to go with the casual notion 'tech isn't evil' / 'even a chair can be used as a weapon'. What have I missed here for blockchain?

My intention wasn't to exclude general mistrust. My purpose was to pick on a title that appears to me as missleading (and a bit annoying, I admit). I dislike these sort of titles that imply that we're all in this together and we a

My take is this: 1. Have long term goals, so you always have something to do to reach them. 2. Embrace the rut. Understand that we people are not machines that can efficiently run our program 24/7 and reach a goal. Some times you get b

Answering the question in the title is hard for me, but I can give you a side tip on this: > I feel immense regret for a lot of things that I didn't do in my 20s. First, it is natural to feel this way. It means you appreciate yourse
