We are in many ways simple creatures. We see images and respond. And now we throw our greatest minds at work to add machine learning into the mix, to extract that consumer potential from us all to the fullest.

Both those you label as your "immigrants" and your "expats" ofter entertain the notion that they will eventuelly move back, but in reality often they don't. Meanwhile, the "expat" gets a free pass for bein

Unfortunately, many white people feel uncomfortable about hiring more black people, funding more black people, buying from black owned businesses, providing education opportunities to black people, and making police accountable for how they

Excuse me if I except the Australian solution to be "ignore it" for a few more decades. How can the cultural implications be worse than they are in Australia? I'm surprised there are any natives left there at all, the way the

I don't understand how you make the conclusion that the money must go to private jobs? Can't the municipality reallocate the funds and spend it elsewhere in the public sector?

I find it CorporateSpeak to say that race is becoming a greater and greater issue. It's long been a great issue. Wars have been fought over race, and the concept of race.

A gas car can be topped up in 2 minutes, just about everywhere - which is not true of an electric. With a 1000 km range, I can go almost everywhere I want, then back, without charging, and recharge at home, if need be. If my gas guzzler fil

The leash is more economic than defence - the main impetus of Gripen is to defend Sweden and for that it should serve well enough. Of course, it would be nice to spread the cost around by selling to other markets, but it's a trade off.

The usual problem with wheel motors is unsprung weight, and the 90s was before batteries had decent energy density. It sounds like something like a Prius, but with serial hybrid instead of parallel hybrid like the Prius was.

It's probably a reference to immigration and how it (in their view) only benefited Capital owners.

AFAIK the N900 sold great in Germany without any ads. It would have been the third place of smartphones IMHO, especially considering Android was not totally dominant in the public yet then. I think it could have been sort of the "Thi

Yeah... imagine if they would have shipped that in a single task version, sort of like a DOS / XBOX1 hybrid. Games would have rocked, even on frugal hardware.
