"...biology is a science, not a pseudoscience or protoscience (or magic)" I agree with your overall point but I take slight issue with this statement. I am not biologically educated, but I am biological. I have no idea what my con

In my opinion, it is quite depressing to not chase meaning and personal value in something that takes 1/3 of my living time.

Yes I tend to agree, however engineers generally need to arrange a mutually suitable time to, on a daily basis, interact with other engineers. And hence the work day was born.

Apologies, when I say native software, I don't just mean the UI.

As long as performance is important, native software will always have an edge. Depends on the application.

My point, is that there is "observed" and there is "observed".

That's ridiculous. If a normal shopper walked into a store and had surveillance on him/her (I don't mean the normal security cameras here - I'm talking about in depth surveillance, the in-person equivalent of a website t

Although I agree that this seems badly optimised, I too have a Macbook Pro, and the fans spinning up is quite normal when using 3D applications. Ie. Although webGL, I think most of the work load is the "GL" part not the "web&

Who says Google and Facebook don't share data?

The whole tracking thing should be outlawed in my opinion. It's like saying that because windows are transparent, it is ok to stare into people's living rooms. It's not - irrespective of transparency or lack of curtains. In a

I did not say that it was for the purposes of renaming bookmarks. However, the folder in particular was a collections of links, one of which I suspected had a virus. So I named it "folder with possible virus links". I can only ima

It seems to me, to be a really bad idea to generate "almost code" in order to be able to generate diagrams for "actual code" that you have to write.

Erm, and we just need the software to run it all :)

I have already seen the reminder about privacy etc from google, which tells me they are nervous.

Can confirm it is not that.

Surely, companies will be able to use regular POS systems, as this becomes more and more legal? And the more legal it becomes, the less market this company has...

I recently noticed that some of my firefox bookmark folders were renamed. But it was not me that renamed it. It was a very strange feeling. Whoever had renamed it was replying to the subject of the bookmark folder. So Eg. If the folder was

I agree. In fact, I don't like the term Artificial Intelligence. It kind of implies that we understand what intelligence is, thereby able to emulate it. In my opinion, it is not the trait of an advanced species to attempt to create som

Where is the end game? The problem with this kind of AI revolution is that it relies on data about us. And this is responsible for the feverish attitude towards collecting or scraping data, sometimes from the public domain, but more than us

I would imagine having such an autopilot would make one less professed at any particular subject.

In my opinion it is ridiculous to equate a web platform to a government, regardless of scale. One is a web-platform, the other is a government. The difference is clear to me.

I wonder if doctors will become like pilots? Ie. Almost redundant, but essential, at the same time.

Yes but given the current state of the App store, with the minor obstacle that is the $99/year, I hasten to imagine what the state of it would be without it!

Everyone keep talking about Facebook, but what about the people who write our Operating Systems? Microsoft, Apple etc. Imagine the data that they have. Surely this whole Facebook privacy thing also applies, but I have not heard it mentioned

Without specifying the relative proportion of those who went up, in your experience, along with the massive amount of people who went down, your counter anecdote is weakly armed.
