I feel there should be a rule against posters creating sensationalist titles when submitting, but titles reproduced from an article should only be edited in egregious cases. The Zuckerberg one is debatable since it’s not an actual quote. Wh

Totally agree. I don’t think I’m a good designer, but I do design things, so I’m a designer. Same for programming and cooking. The world has enough elitism. Don’t make it worse.

What if the page’s content is changed a year later? Or deleted? Or the site is sold? Or the domain expires? You bookmarked what it was, not what it is.

Apparently you can get stuff into space for as little as USD$400/kg [1] and a plain DVD weighs 16g [2]. Naïvely assuming ‘space’ to simply mean ‘Kármán line’ and discounting the cost of actually landing on the Moon, I estimate USD$24600 to

I don’t see how it’s ‘discarded stuff’ when the backstory is acknowledged as fake in the entry.

Oh, sure. Like I said, I’m in favor of the the mindset—but Yucca Mountain less intellectual-idealism than Long Now, and if it’s improbable that a clock will last maybe ten thousand years, what are the odds a nuclear coffin will survive a mi

I’m certainly in favor of building for larger timescales, but I have enough trouble believing the Long Now Foundation’s projects will last beyond a dozen generations (though I’d certainly like them to). Building something that could last a

Must have been more than one writer involved—items 7–10 are in serious need of punctuation and general editing. (‘Kodak won’t cease to exit.’; ‘Its fate as a standalone company is however looking more and more like an inevitable fate.’)

How do you know anything on Wikileaks came from a reliable source? Or anything on the web or the news or from your friends? You basically have trust, first-party confirmations, alternate sources giving consensus, and guilty reactions—none o
