Could you end up with competing DNS services in different nations that direct users to different IPs? Now that could be a mess.

Totally agree! Ever since they added story updates into the notifications screen, it has totally lost meaning. That and friends attending random events, etc. It used to actually mean something.

Kurzweil has a vested interest in wanting to see things move along quickly, given his plan to live forever. It must be frustrating for him to see technological progress slowed down by social forces, but in my opinion it's the better wa

I agree with this. Ever since I started doing bi-weekly retrospectives with my teams, we've gotten much better at improving the things that really need improving. Goal setting from the top down can be very artificial. I find it works m

Can you expand on what you mean by the "self quarantining of the rich"?

I had to do this exercise in my undergrad, it's always stuck out as one of the exercises I've remembered and found really interesting.

I've recently been looking for a house cleaner and decorator as I have a hard time keeping up due to working busy hours at my job (and I really hate cleaning & decorating). I was chatting with a friend of mine who needs a web app

When I was a kid, before these paper cups were widely used at restaurants for ketchup, my parents used to use empty cream containers. I used to like drinking the cream to empty out the containers. :/

Unless the story that tea bags was originally meant to be removed from the bags, is itself a myth based on one person's personal theory that slowly morphed into fact. :)

One day when we're able to use quantum technology to clone ourselves, we'll be able to test the theory. You split your consciousness into 1000 clones of yourself and kill 999 of them, do "you" always seem to end up in th

I'm really glad I am old enough to have had an opportunity to live, work, and travel in other countries before social media was around. You just really don't get immersed the same way anymore with the ability to stay so connected

Let's blame the people then, not the colonizers who got this whole system set up in the first place, eh?

We might not be seeing major issues now, but I think it would be fairly easy to foresee one or two major publishing cartels controlling all publications as things continue to consolidate with internet powerhouses. Sounds absolutely ripe for

For some reason I find it weird to think that it wouldn't take all that long to count to a million.

I was always taught that representative democracy is the rule of the majority, with respect for minority rights. This is where a rational court system comes into play, and why not all questions of rights are left to a referendum. It's

America would rather build a giant wall than fix their crumbling infrastructure, so I don't think there's much cause for optimism in this regard.

Why do you think Trump spent so much time attacking Hillary for being "crooked"? It was to muddy the waters so that when Trump's own crooked actions came to light, the average person would just throw up their hands and say &q

Give me one example of a criticism of Trump that his supporters feel is "valid on its merits"? The beginning and end of support for Trump is that we he says, goes, period, and anything that criticizes him is being unscrupulous in

Why do you think Trump is continuously attacking the integrity of the very institutions that are meant to keep democracy intact? (the legislative bodies, the judiciary, and the fourth estate).

A layer of focused expertise is theoretically a good thing. When these experts are bought and sold by corporations who write the laws to benefit themselves and hurt the people who voted for said representatives, the system is utterly broken

If the civil society infrastructure doesn't exist to secure free elections with paper balloting, then you're not really living in a democracy anyway, and you've got bigger issues to deal with.

We all heard him say it, and it was controversial at the time and has remained so, especially given everything that has happened since. What are you "concerned" with, exactly? If you're a supporter, you should be happy that t

Former CEO of Diebold, in 2003 when the first electronic voting machines were used (back when it was controversial, and people hadn't given in to this idea that it is inevitable and inherently "better" than paper voting): &qu
