Even with cash, you can't buy a plane ticket without handing over all your info. Which is a good thing! And, if I had to guess, the booking of hotel rooms probably has more to do with liability rather than tracking. There are plenty of

The universities seem to have forgotten that there role is to teach and educate, not overreach into their student's lives. College is about learning to cope and manage on your own, as well as learn. Having a different helicopter parent

A lot of these high-end schools have been working to crack down on forms of risk, at the cost of a huge amount of fun and personal discovery. The issues is, this has happened for kids all the way down to when they are toddlers. People need

One thing no one is mentioning is how China is the no.1 beneficiary of a pacified and monitored Australian populace. They are already completely dependent on the Aussie natural resource exports, and are deeply interested in Australia contin

The thing is this "long run" is a hypothetical for investors and their finite lifetimes and finite windows of return. Companies aren't accountable to some infinitely long running algorithm or timeless dynasty of shareholders,

Reminds me of a Star Trek DS9 episode that takes place in an SF of the near future. "By the 2020s, those without employment, as well as those with mental problems, were moved into the Sanctuary Districts, which would later become no be

People talk online. Whether that's equivalent is up for debate. There might be an argument that our new online/text based discussions have changed the dynamics (some could argue hindered, but I don't) of face to face communic

Yeah, clearly old things were fine, or in many case quite good. I think comparing the advances in mechanical precision to changes in society shaping technological advances is not a fair comparison. I would argue that it's exactly that

The unmentioned thing here is why? Why does the world with a smartphone and today's hyper-connectivity seem so different now compared to what it used to? Did people feel the same way when the railroad and other forms of rapid transport

I excelled at AP biology, but college biology was a total drag. Honestly, it's just the teachers, my high school teachers taught with passion in college it was a chore for my professors. At least software has more jobs and better pay,
