Serious question though, and I would like people to ignore some sort of moral or religious argument for it; but what is the long term implication if all kinds of health advances save people but humans still reproduce and impact the planet i

Please someone explain something to me regarding the tech sector and housing. Why is it that the most location independent sector, tech workers, are huddling around certain urban areas? It makes absolutely no sense. Shouldn't tech work

That's a very good point. I know most of us will block ads in one way or another, but it would have really behooved this designer to also put a lot of cycles into rethinking how ads are integrated and displayed. I'm not even reall

Interesting article. It also adds more validation to my theory that Google is "successful" in spite of itself in many ways. I really think Google's search supremacy is vulnerable, although there is no one really positioned to

Being classified as a public utility does not necessarily mean it will become a government entity. As you identify, there is very little if any separation between American corporations and our government, which are quite clearly engaged in

CSS Media emulation like in Chrome. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that feature is still not included even though there are feature requests for it. I am interested in it in order to emulate print.css . I'm sure it's not the hi

Here's how things will go. Über will continue steamrolling the country and locking down the market and subduing drivers into subjugation, then they will start regulatory and policy capture by corrupting politicians to write rules that

What I find interesting is that there is overlap between knowledge and object that will surely be eroded by courts in the future. We are setting a precedent that a key and a fingerprint are equivalent, and fingerprint can unlock a password,

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that seem like an opportunity to negate Tor by fingerprinting unless you create an account over Tor and then only ever connect to that specific account through Tor? I wonder how much thi

The point is that it is a choice, a deliberate choice. Without sending the date, i.e., your output, to corporate servers, they can't profit from your person. Hate to say this and many may believe that it's over the top, but humans

It's really a shame that Sony Xperia's Z line does not get far more press and accolades. Their hardware and their designs are exponentially superior to Samsung. I believe that Sony is thinking of supporting and shipping stock Andr

I actually think Google could, in spite of themselves, be on to something that they may not even realize yet. Actually, I think fetching.io is onto something that they may not be aware of either.

The problem is that American people still don't realize they are living under a regime that, although a lot more sophisticated than most, is really not dissimilar to any other authoritarian regime. We simply use ruse, facade, illusion,

Don't be surprised that the government prevails and the first amendment is furthermore whittled away at in an every increasing desire for our government to prove it's illegitimacy.
