I've heard from insiders Apple has the same tech as the Hololens andthat the Hololens and the Magic Leap tech are essentially the same (Microsoft seems to be actually ahead with the inside out tracking solution). Magic Leap was ahead w

Used to be true but increasingly less since the euro crisis tbh. I've lived in two countries in the EU (native to one of them) and the perception is definitly that a lot of power has shifted, and not for the worst. Honestly small EU co

everything comes down to a moral compass of some kind. Your comment expects some sort of objective measurement of good and evil, but I don't see any. The law can be, and is often, in the wrong. Most people seem to think this law (if it

Current understanding of willpower is that does, indeed, function like a "muscle". I got this from reading a few books and articles and it might be wrong, but it's my impression.

You can let them decide? Then follow agile principles to make sure they are delivering prototypes/features. Ideally you would get a grasp of what they need to do and some idea on how they need to do it. If you don't then you shoul

Occupy Wall Street's lack of agenda was a deliberate move. Apparently some of its leaders believed (and I would say, probably correctly) that advancing an agenda simply gives your opponents an opportunity to take you down. Instead they

I've heard about this being real from someone who works in a very very large corp. They are working with Apple building the first apps for the device. He said it was not much better than Hololens at the moment.

If you look at cybersecpolitics, a blog written by a former NSA, he specifically says the "we hacked into a server box" story for how these tools got leaked is implausible.

Actually for me the main takeaway is he ran a sophisticated counterintelligence campaign. Maybe. The article defends the hypothesis that Macron's cybersec team deliberately seeded the Russians with false information so three could disc

Regarding your notion of "there's nothing there to identify" which I assume means there's nothing to the work of Cambridge Analytica. If that was true then Cambridge Analytica would not make any money. The fact that Camb

I wouldn't deny that the Democrats took those voters for granted. But the Russian interference campaign (which you're right about - America does this too and probably a lot better) might've helped tip it one way.
