This is absolutely the stupidest story ever. The journalists that are promoting it are doing Trump a favor because it’s this type of deceptive journalism that gives trump and his supporters carte blanche to disregard actual journalism. This

Amazon products are barely more official than eBay at this point. I tell my wife to never buy soaps, makeup, or anything liquid-based from amazon.

I mean, this whole situation may turn out to be no big deal, relatively speaking, but at what point does everyone agree this is a really serious situation? Because it keeps ticking the boxes. The economic consequences will probably turn out

I actually think China’s done an admirable job containing this virus. I think what they’ve done will probably work to stop the spread. The most interesting part of this whole episode is the Orwellian efficiency communist China can control t

Wow. This is a surprisingly terrible take on the next ten years. If he did this prediction ten years ago, he’d probably predict we’d all be using our blackberry’s to automatically checkout DVD’s in blockbuster by 2020.

Bitcoin does nothing, is used for nothing, and solves nothing. It’s an answer to a question no one asked. It’s a cult whose members have an illogical alliance to technology they don’t understand and knew nothing about just a couple years ag

It'll be interesting to see if all the California SB Nation bloggers just transfer their readership to their own privately owned websites. Their wasn't ever much of a network effect with these sports blogs just a first mover advan

It looks fucking awesome. Like a futuristic yacht. People that think this is ugly have no taste. I’m not gonna buy one but can’t wait to see it on the road.

It’s shocking how many people are upset about Tesla and this new design. How can so many people prefer the status quo in car designs to something new and different? You really hate Tesla and prefer the current designs from GM?

The idea is irrelevant to his personal situation. Doesn’t make it any less true or more true. It’s just interesting.

I thought his answer to the second to last question was interesting. Basically that the automation storyline is vastly overdone. That automation taking away jobs has been happening for 200 years, and the rate of job loss is probably slowing
