Alarming articles like this raise more questions than answers. The number of species on earth apparently ranges from 2 million to 1 trillion (??). One question is whether this biodiversity is needed. Life on earth has survived significantl

I am glad for this because it shows what the whole fuss about "dangerous" was about. This is like an illusion that looks deceptive from afar, but is however transparent on any closer inspection. As long as it is impossible for dee

Nytimes seems to lean more on the one side since they erected a paywall. It is inherent to subscriptions that they create a selfreinforcing bubble by telling subscribers what they want to hear, but other publications are doing better (ft, w

In the future we are going to have neural fashion. People will use the knobs of an autoencoder to generate the clothes they like, preview them on artificial models , and then order them for manufacturing.

That s no longer a gothic cathedral. And considering that it's not a public building like the reichstag, what's the point of doing that modernist crap in a museum that is famous for itself. Norman Foster is 83 years old, and i thi

I think this is something that will improve in the future. Cities everywhere are optimized for the very specific 9-5 living lifestyle and commute, and people heavily rely on work for social functions. But as more and more people are working

imho, advertising is an extremely fuzzy business. Advertisers throw money on campaigns because facebook tells them to do so, and then increases their prices. It generates revenue for sure, but i dont see it working out well in the long term

Can you tell a reason why not? Opening up any technology has proved to be good for innovation in 100% of the times so far. Perhaps we have all missed on some amazing mods of iphones.
