Hey sorry for the delay in getting back. It's obviously a difficult line to draw because terminal diseases, especially those of the painful/slow degenerative type, are tragic and I would never wish them on anyone. I also understan

It is my sincere hope that anti-aging treatments never become viable. Successful longevity research will only lead the world to resemble Elysium, with two tiers of society: ultra-wealthy immortals and the impoverished, mortal, and expendabl

Counterpoint: in Thailand, I was surprised to see the sheer amount of single use plastic. Tiny plastic bags put inside larger plastic bags. Individually wrapped candies put inside larger bags. And of course the usual plastic sleeves around

I've really enjoyed https://www.slowboring.com/ for this reason. There are plenty of hot takes that shouldn't necessarily be taken at face value, but I appreciate how the site focuses on long term trends rather th

I found this claim really intriguing and rabbit holed on researching it for a bit... but upon further research I am skeptical. It strikes me that I'm basically only seeing articles out of News Corp outlets and random blogs which appear

On the question of principles vs practicals... the principles sound great and all. I also appreciate that this takes advantage of the large number of mobile devices already out there, and encourages the development of rural internet. But, I

Right off the bat I'm not sure you want to look at Oklahoma as a shining example of how to treat prisoners. https://www.prisonlegalnews.org/news/2019/feb/5/oklahoma-num...

If you're actually interested in up and coming artists, Tik Tok is probably the place to go. Their algorithm really does bring good stuff up.

This is an excellent documentary. Skipping ahead to the “Discussion” section and watching through to the end gives a good summary, and it certainly opened my mind. Thanks for sharing, I’m probably going to go back and watch the whole thing.

I feel the same way in the sense that I'm much more cynical about tech than I used to be. I take solace in the fact that writing code and building things (especially physical world things!) is fun. Web backend is getting duller by the

I'm hoping someone with experience working at a coop could chime in here... I'm curious what the workplace politics are like at coops where key decisions are made by vote of the employees, as opposed to the authoritarian capitalis

Small businesses are important for a whole host of intangible reasons. They provide dignified employment (as opposed to invisible work in a warehouse), they encourage entrepreneurship, they increase the tax base of a locality (by ensuring m

Or maybe Uber et al outspending their opponents on political advertising by hundreds of millions of dollars had something to do with it? Not to mention constant advertising for free in their apps. They had the “no on prop 22” people hopeles

I have such mixed feelings about this. It's not a great movie but this really does remind me of Elysium, in that we're truly heading for a world where those with means can live indefinitely. And those without means...

They made the mistake of trying to build that train through Marin. Good luck. Marin's home to some of the most regressive local politics imaginable.

I think a lot of it has to do with the means of reproduction of the animal. One might make an argument that [r-type species]( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/R/K_selection_theory#r-selec... ) have decimating loss fa

Yeah, I swear. They're a hardware company more than a software one... it shows in their utter lack of imagination for their software. Even their UI/UX design is really suffering compared to their competitors. Disclaimer: I continu

I'd actually take them at their word that they don't sell your data directly. That'd be fucked up. They do, however, use your data to make money by slotting you into segments and selling the anonymized _segment_ data to adver

While both parties are certainly beholden to big donors, I think the equivalency argument ends there. When it comes to issues of money in politics (e.g. campaign finance), issues of government transparency (e.g. financial disclosures), or e

Master branch refers to a master copy, like in the recording industry. While I'm very much in favor of removing symbolism that evokes past injustice, this feels misguided to me. It has nothing to do with the master/slave terminolo
