Local will re-emerge with tighter communities. Suburbs are unsustainable wastes and we'll have to adapt by reforming walkable cities. Kids will have tons to explore at that point, like they used to. AR/VR will enable more spatiall

Let's deal with one issue at a time. Our current government actively suppresses minority votes - a step beyond suppressing speech. Get rid of that then redo the survey in 10 years and you'll see a shift back toward freedom of spee

I was able to eat bread my whole life up to last year. Now whenever I eat it I get so tired I have to sleep. I played outside all the time as a kid... Something else is going on. Also, rural area report more claims than cities. You'd t

There's a difference between realistic pragmatism and covert antagonism. Due to subversion of various sociopolitical systems in this country, it would be very difficult for the left to win majority power without making tactical tradeof

Licensing quality, trusted data is very expensive right now, but as IoT, device tracking, and other data-producing technologies come online there will be a race to the bottom in cost of quality. A lot of older data providers who haven'

The building blocks of AI products are not stable enough for the industry to be respected outside of specialized cases. Too many crap models, not enough simple tools ensuring that models are not crap. I'm guessing these funds would go

Our communities are collectively organized to separate the haves from the have-nots. Capital acts as a gravity well so the wealthy tend to cluster together, and people trying to access their capital do everything they can to make the lives

I'd hesitate to say liberal politics dominated DC. In the last decade there were only two years where Democrats were able to pass liberal legislation at the federal level: 2008-2010. Even then it was a slog. Republican powers keep push

As a progressive I have my reasons for disagreeing with the manifesto but don't care if he's fired. It's a matter internal to Google. I can certainly see why Google fired him - he broke team cohesion in a large and public way
