I've actually thought about that idea and even did some initial prototyping for a mobile app. But the idea I had was a more usable/less scammy version of craigslist specifically for local commerce. Initially, I was thinking of lim

Great so have I! Intersubjective is what clued me in. The whole idea of Intersubjective reality cleared up a lot of misgivings I had about civilizations/societies.

Though I pay attention to politics like you and unlike the OP I have become skeptical in journalism to truly inform anyone. I've migrated to books primarily for my information and this was before Trump was a serious political contender

I think they are often pretty bad. Too many start-ups seem to place chatbot's in their product just because it's the right thing to do. I think chatbots can be great but their design and implementation are often terrible.

I was going to make a similar comment but in this case wasn't this guy in a leadership role? I believe the article may have even referred to him as an exec but I have to reread. But yes others should definitely be held responsible.

Hmm, that's curious. I think about that a lot. I am both "diverse" in that I am biracial and "diverse" in the sense that I come from a poor uneducated family. Note: I use diverse in quotes not because I don't b

Wikipedia is a great example of a free decentralized product. I suppose a way without having to ask for donations is one I would be interested in though I suspect there are " whales" who make up the bulk. I think the issue with Wi

Started reading last night. No technical expert but I came of age after the widespread use of the Internet. Many people, my age and older, can care a less about the philosophy of decentralized platforms. However could you combine usability

How meta! I submitted my side project http://www.bookeyes.co/ . Though it was simplistic and still is BookEyes was well received. I got feature ideas I'm in the process of implementing.

The event looked interesting and the game is a great concept. Sorry to hear about this fail as well.

Hmm I disagree that something is wrong if you can't understand algebra. Something is wrong with a system that make you "learn" information irrelevant to your own life.

I on the no required math courses train for non-stem. I completely agree! Of course since the argument can't be practical, ie you will use this someday which you won't, opponents talk about the importance of a liberal arts educati

There we go right here. In theory people say engineers need to write cleary,accurately, whatever adverb is used to describe it in order to get a job etc. I wonder how many engineers get hired for their writing ability? In fact I bet a colle

Non-Stem; I'll give it go but the answer may be considered a cop out. I don't think STEM majors should have to take writing courses nor non-stem majors take math courses. This should not be done in University but earlier. I'm

Ok very cool. I never looked at it from the business/ad side my process was far more simplistic ie Mobile Platform = superior game. Yep the switch a roo from "social" to free to play is one of the things I noticed.

Hmm true though I tried to focus more on social apps made on top of social networks, not ones developed primarily for mobile devices. But regardless good point about angry birds, and just look at Zynga now even with Farmville. Also thanks f

Noticed as well a while back. It is super annoying but they got me anyway. I downloaded the app but use the browser still about 50% of the time.
