I don't know that it ruined it. However it creates a challenge for search which makes previous iterations of SEO spam look like child's play. So the signal to noise ratio is going to get massively worse. And if they don't giv

These and some others represented the golden age of content creation for me. I had a wonderful zero clutter Google Reader setup and would consume these from there. The pace of writing was manageable and I didn't feel like I was drownin

Generally agree. Read Rainbow's End for an example of what reduced friction UI is like for AR. But it is enabled by input and display devices that are several generations ahead. Heck, even Cyberpunk 2077 is somewhat interesting in this

Got to fly in an A-22 Foxbat in AZ. You rotate immediately on applying power. In Sedona with a decent headwind we were off the ground at 22kts. Took us a bit more than 22ft but not much, that's for sure. Tiny little go kart of a plane
