I was in many crypto presentations during the 2018 BTC rise. The crypto-anarchists (left and right leaning) were getting their spotlight and laying out their "dream". Basically an updated version of Kropotkin's and Bakunin&#x

Anecdotal: My explore feed has been 100% populated by semi-naked women for a long time. I realized that it could lead to some embarrassing moments when my friends would see it and I decided to change the feed. However, I was clicking on the

Ads and news were always tied together. The problem today is that Internet + ads are tied together and that annoys everyone and diminishes revenue for newspapers. News is a public good and should be viewed as such, its a core pillar of demo

I always found the US model of colleges so outlandishly short-sighted. Problems of non-bankruptcy and wage slavery are just the very apparent outcomes that you would have a system like this. "Free" education is the only thing that

Even humans cannot understand if something is directed towards them until non-verbal signs say so or your name is called. (Which depending on the name might have a lot of false positives)

Past news should have shown that pretty much nothing is invulnerable from state-backed intelligence services. I would be more worried about what can realistically be hacked by random people on the internet.

It is anything but easy. I guess that is why you get downvoted. The fact that only this academic group was able to come up with these attacks shows the amount of knowledge you need to have to carry them out.

A Panopticon society is a dystopian society. Privacy is a right, giving it up is not a solution, is a crime

Synthetic data is a tool in a system of privacy-preserving analytics. I don't think a lot of companies would be comfortable with shipping their sensitive data into a model sitting not on their premises. The model, needs to generate goo

But why should growth of the growing GDP should be the target? I don't think that anyone believes that the GDP growth can increase every year. But you can reasonably assume that it can grow every year

Kindling this kind of provocative discussions should not be permitted here. The argument that x is smarter than everyone else without ever this being able to be verified is ridiculous. I don't suppose that a kid in Nigeria has the same

I am starting to think that restricting the number of people you can follow/add as friends to a number that would actually be possible to follow without specialized algorithm might be a good idea. As long as there is such informational

Indeed this is the way it works but I think you restrict your view by taking social media as some society constant. If there is no way for the public to find the information it looks for in a meaningful way in facebook or twitter, it will m

Tarifs on airbus the moment Boeing is doing that bad with the 737 fiasco seem more than "happy news" to the Boeing's shareholders. I call that effective lobbying. What is astonishing however is how Trump is so willingly tradi
