Personal anecdote here. Socialists seem to reject the idea that capitalism has brought more general prosperity to the world more often than not when speaking in terms of life longevity and food availability. Its as if they don't want t

I think its narrow minded to assume a tool of the government is right wing, or left wing for that matter.

I think the major tech companies should be broken up. However its not 1982 anymore. The global market(mainly China) threw a money wrench into the system. If you break up Google, that's mostly to the benefit of the CPC which will result

I just wanted to point out that racism like that is on its last leg. I used to live in a rural, very conservative, upper class area. While they do watch fox news, they are not racist. Its close minded to call fox news racist or cnn socialis

Soros is the equivalent to the Koch brothers. The older I get the more I realize the Left and the Right are the same damn people.

Is there also a possibility of an incalculable factor which will yield a return on investment given that this project would bolster a middle class thus creating an increased likelihood of higher education for the next generation? My point i

I'm going to say it. The most excluded group in SV are conservative republicans. Its a death sentence to your career to come out as one. If you truly value diversity, their point of view is the most absent from tech.

I don't think its fair to blame FB on the decay of democracy in the information age. Surely Twitter is also to blame them. I think the blame is on the users. Its not possible to be perfectly informed. It is possible to keep your mouth

I truly hope the advertising driven tech industry dies and a general paid service model takes it place. The long term affect adverts have on humans cannot be positive.

I first tried DDG years ago. It really wasn't great. The results and astetics were not up to snuff. I went back to google. About a year ago I decided to try DDG again. I've been using DDG ever since. Maybe once a month I'll g

The article is very Marxist, using popular terms that attempt to stoke a recollection of occupy wall street and similar movements failed movements. If a true oligarchy were to come into power it would be likely to be overthrown in the west

I tend to disagree when someone speaks of the 1% as being money driven. After a certain point, you can buy basically anything and more money won't change that. Influence may be the next level for these people. The article mentions Scot

I can't imagine a better way to ensure the business suffers in the long term. (coming from an American who see's how poorly run government institutions are)

Its funny that the government is as bad with money as the people. Truly a good representation.

Disagree. I think it is the incentive that drives this innovation. The consumer market does not face large scale death if it does not innovate.

I recently had a heart thing that put me in the hospital and included a med-flight to the hospital. Total bill was close to $40,000 if i'm not mistaken. I had to cover the $4,000 deductible but after that everything was covered. Additi

Kotlin seems to either have a lot of advocates or a strong marketing department. Its almost like a advertising company supports it.

The more time I spend in IT the more I appreciate extreme simplicity. Sure wordpress claims to be simple for the average user, but its always whats under the hood that counts.

You know whats equally evil to "attacking children"? Using children as a weapon. These kids should have stood up and spoken their minds. Thats all well and good. Using these kids to further finger point and create a more divisive

A bit of anecdotal evidence of the pitfalls of welfare and what it could mean for UBI. I grew up in an area of questionable safety. There was a woman across the street who spoke to my mother about how she would scam the welfare system to re

Millions will wake up with no goals and no structure to their lives because they have all of their most basic needs satisfied by UBI if the democrats have their way. Republicans will require mandatory public service to obtain UBI. Optimists
