I agree that there is that 'mesothelioma' part of the web but your commentary sounds like some unfounded elitism. "Simple tips and tutorials" - what exactly is bad about that? If people are visiting the website, reading

Thank you arca_vorago! First - I am saddened that a line of questioning could be deemed dangerous. So much for our 'progress'. > The main mistake though is to think they are all in on it or even understand it. I hope I have not

Thank you for your response. I don't disagree that there is collusion - I disagree that it is as effective as we give it credit for. Namely, that there is a systematic 'them' which is against 'us'. That the NSA can

Can someone "ELI5" this to me? How is it possible that in the Western world there is a collective 'they' that are doing this? It seems more reasonable that the behavior we dislike is emergent. Anyone working in even a me

I'm a fan of the idea but I can't help but think of the potential irony... "Kids - please don't forget to watch 20min of Coca Cola ads tonight to help cure diabetes!"

Well I certainly don't disagree that he's capable of being judged. And you're right - it's simply my opinion that what he did was not unethical.

I wonder what Hunter would have said about the difference between fear of missing out vs staying for excitement of what might come. I honestly believe using the "well I get it and there's nothing else here" point of view is t

I'll concede that this might be true - but you most certainly can't validate it based on these descriptions. In fact, by definition, you are unable to forget "something" for every other "something" you learn. I

It's a shame you had to bring this down but it looks like you saw it coming and enjoyed the ride. I think the posts that characterize you as unethical are just not willing to cope with the disillusion that technology is a two sided coi

I agree with your points. Yes, the current generation of displaced workers will be in trouble and yes if the changes are quick the result won't be pretty (re: illegal means of survival). Despite this history also shows that the long ru

I've always wanted something like this. Not that I have a business model in mind to make it feasible but it would be awesome if it were a separate product that did this for "gardened" content in general.

First, as a prediction, it cannot be a 'lie'. Second, it's a prediction that actually makes sense. If menial jobs are reduced - the only way to earn money will be to perform less trivial tasks, or, to put it another way, &#x2
