Why does it discomfort you? You think it's a poor aesthetic, or you just recognize it's associated with a product, or something else?

I don't think I've heard a bad thing about it, except maybe for the battery time. What are you referring to?

Like sibling I'd also like more information on this and can't find anything immediately compelling with a light search. Like this post suggests, obviously there's a use to hiding information, sometimes a bad reputation is und

No patience for this shit. Uninformed placement of sensors in your desk/workspace feels like a pretty disgusting move. I like the account, I hope itll inspire a harsher response where other workers have surveilance foisted on them

I'm not against having Simula foot the bill in preparing whatever materials they may need to prepare to aid in the FCC's investigation - I think that's a reasonable cost of doing business, one that ought to scale with the siz

I think I understand where you're coming from, and largely agree. Regarding societal weakness/insecurity stemming from disconnecting technologies, I view that as something that's happened to a large degree, and it shapes chun

Is this a value judgement or you're just saying? "This app rides on human weakness" sounds like negative framing at least. Because yes, if you had good observant friends, it reduces the need for this for sure. But the human

I don't know, it implies people would be more conservative with their attention if they had some better way to spend it. I mean, there are obvious ways like studying or being with good family and friends or exercising, but they're

Coming from an app with a quarter of the users (so to say it's been less of a subject of investigation as such). "Far more sophisticated" also? What does that mean? If Whatsapp has voluntarily been adding these issues, or has

Pretty fun idea, but am I reading it wrong or are you fibbing when you say it's AI generated :P You just have a corpus that you either sample randomly, or if the keyword is present you use a nearby word, right?

Fun example. Or does getting a giant ass, big fake breasts, filled lips, etc. get counted in the same lot? It's definitely funky, in terms of the ethics surrounding it. You could see it as buying into negative (in the sense that they&#

Idk what the effect of taking blockers for 3 years and then realizing its a mistake would be. Do you experience puberty for the same duration, to the same extent? If youre male, are you going to be shorter for instance? Regarding clothing,

I read current gender rhetoric as a necessary counter culture that got adopted too readily - only in the sense that it seems like we should have detached from any sense of discrete categories, and now we have to overcome the current doctrin

The fraction of people who want to prevent children transitioning or claiming youre a different gender, versus people against general body mods, is smaller than it needs to be? That might be a really good point if true.

Idk, first the focus on body modifications in the context of what a transhumanist is is a bummer, I always thought imoroved thinking made more sense as the initial goal. And second, how do you determine what is someones authentic self, if t

A business is a structure of people, and my intuition is to achieve healthy dynamics, people should treat it like this kind of parasocial relationship. If you fuck up, I should forgive you as long as you're not an asshole about it. Ho

by mkmk3 4y ago
Sure, but not thinking about it doesn't make the dynamics it enables less relevant. Don't think about it, let them pay you less, there's less incentive to raise wages. I don't know, take what you can while you can. If n

Im more with you than not. I think my failing in this context is more to do with apathy inspired by everyone looking like assholes or idiots. Watching people interact poorly doesnt inspire positive behaviour by itself. It puts you in a posi

Unless you consider the radical and sometimes dubious nature of dogmatic politics (left and right) to be a mental hazard worth avoiding. I wonder if theres a way to temper a user, such that you expose them to more vitriolic bullshit on eith

True, as long as there's money in it, but I'd bet the majority of people in adtech aren't in terrible positions, so I don't think that's the root of this. Do people generally care about acting ethically without circ

You can try whatever you like, I think the angle is more about how meditation of various kinds are being adopted while other pieces of their source may be neglected, and this is in service to corporations and capitalism. I don't think

I hadn't heard of Redout or Super Chariot but both look exciting. I've also been browsing the shop going a year or two back but the store UI doesn't do much for assessing quality, which is a bit of a shame. I don't think

For sure an interesting take. Is there really no way to bypass gdpr restrictions if the only functionality you need is unique visitors? It's been a while since I read the gdpr doc, so at what point does your activity become relevant to

Nice, interesting idea, how do you handle gift choices? Is there an option to screen the gifts beforehand?
