The assembly line has been mass producing ready-made products for over 100 years and yet product quality, material stability, aesthetic trends, and function design still dominate the purchasing decisions of the general public. Being tapped

computation — like speech and property — is a fundamental human right Computation however requires a vast supply chain where certain middlemen have a near monopoly on distribution of said "fundamental right". The incentive

Sadly, "using the bathroom" will cause a more immediate visceral reaction for most people than "maliciously manipulating your entire life via ad networks and media".

If we could all spread the knowledge of what is actually going on to the wider public, it would make my meetings easier, and prevent very smart folks from outside the field from saying dumb-sounding stuff. This is an example of why

I think moving to micro-PCs is the answer Would be shocked if hardware is affordable enough for such a thing in a decade

Also for the ND pipeline, I think it does relatively little to change the economics of fossil fuels. This is ignoring the issue of tribal sovereignty and water rights which is where most of the issue lies imo. No one is trying to ru

People abstract upon new leaps in invention way too early though. Believing these leaps are becoming the standard. Look at cars, airplanes, phones, etc. After we landed on the moon people were hyped for casual space living within 50 years.

The 8-8-8 rule (8 hrs work, 8 hrs play, 8 hrs sleep) that unions lobbied for during labor reforms helped establish a common sustainable work week. Something similar for land management could go a long way. 33% for farming, 33% for human dev

While I appreciate no gatekeeping, the other side of the coin is gatekeeping via bots (vote manipulation). Something like rotten tomatoes could be useful. Have a list of "verified" users (critic score) in a separate voting column

the US will somehow fall in a vacuum and everyone else will live happily ever after is laughable. If enough countries collectively decide to not export to the US, it's game over. See Cuba as an example. Not everything is a movi
