I check out the websites of companies mentioned in blockchain press pretty regularly. I haven’t figured out what a lot of them do. The few times I’ve dig into a blockchain company that had a $100MM theft, it’s hard to understand where those

Just today I was on Twitter reading a thread where they were dismissing Chomsky as a “neoliberal shill”. Couldn’t imagine how. The things we need to build will probably require deep involvement of the government, or at least the exit of cro

I've used Outlook at a lot of companies and can't say I share most of these experiences. 10s of thousands of emails? Not slow. Hangs for a few seconds? Not in my experience. Whole series vs a single meeting? Only when editing, whi

Tons of companies with "cash on hand" still responded to the current conditions by shedding employees immediately . I'd argue that the poor government response to pandemic planning led those companies to conclude that whatev

Why do companies hide the link to [domain].com like this? Sign-Up doesn't take you anywhere special, just to the .com domain. I was looking for the link to the site to see what it was and that wasn't made very obvious. (Similar is

I was a bit unclear in my original post. I meant this tech community here.. lots of "don't make me use something else" posts in a community of people who ostensibly are tech oriented. But your point stands either way. I'

If the tech community can't prioritize security over features, it's pretty rich for same community to declare that the "average joe" doesn't care about security.

I'll venture that it's "the work" that's at the center of transformation, spirituality, self-actualization. Pick your modality: therapy, AA, fitness, yoga, meditation, many others.. anything that leads you to truth,

I don't have access to the text right now, but when you consider the literal definition of "fantasizing", it's pretty heavy: "to imagine things only possible in fantasy"

Apple news and google news shovel the Ks at me, along with brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. I’ve tried instructing both to stop suggesting them to me but they won’t. I don’t use either anymore, but the forces are out there. I wanted some of th

I keep a long list of blocked words in Twitter, Feedly, and I try... as much as I can, to only consume news on reuters.com (and 4 print weeklies). I block CNN and Facebook in my hosts file. And yet, I'm barraged on the web with celebri
