Funny thing is that it's actually a tool to validate one's life to the corporation that owns and possesses that data. You validated nothing by being a corporate drone other than that you are a corporate drone that was milked all o

Funny you used such an example, because it's a rather short sighted perspective. Sure, feel all warm and fuzzy about it, but reality is that what you are partaking in is really the deconstruction of human diversity and uniqueness and s

I know this will probably be rather controversial, but it's not just instagram, the whole internet is ruining and poisoning and deconstructing whole segments of human interaction and activity and relationship. It goes far beyond just p

Wait. Red pill is misogyny? Is this just intentional conflation and misinformation? Red pilling is about embracing the sometimes painful reality or truth in lieu of the short term and blind comfort of illusion and self-delusion.

It's amazing how the hipster and tech-douche crowd loves solving problems they are the cause of. It's so wonderfully reflexive and blusteringly ignorant.

That's a bunch of nonsense. If you calculated the water used in the production of every liter of drinking water, you would also find there are inefficiencies. It is the nature of adding value, you use more lower grade resources to prod

It is the biggest flaw of the existing instantiation of Capitalism in the USA, that major non-financial factors are simply left out, ignored, or simply unrealized in the calculation of value. There is massive damage being done to the USA by

I think the question is the proportionality, i.e., is that 3.5 or 5% impact a disproportionate one. The absolute percentages of even just 3.5% means nothing without seeing it in relative terms. If that 3.5% is caused by 0.0001% of activity

Pretty much describes the archetypal difference between Apple and Google, end-user experience vs engineers developing for engineers ... and those pesky end-users if we must.

Let's realize something here that I can attest to being 100% correct; the US government is abysmally behind the curve ball on anything and all things technology. I really even hate stating that because we are operating on a kind of ine

Isn't there some jet or jet like propulsion engine that was developed in the UK a couple years ago that may offer far more efficient and even harder thrust that could revive high speed air travel? Is that what that boom.aero post was a

Totally agree, especially regarding relative cost of living and work / life balance. That being said, cost of living is probably the most difficult to asses as there are also many relative variables. work life balance could probably be

I see it as a rather significant error on their part. And to be honest, I am not quite sure why there has not been a massive revolt by app developers, content creators, and companies in general. With the OS taking up a huge chunk of that 16

I find that statement weirdly irreconcilable. Can you really be a naive user and a developer worth his mettle? I get your point, but there is a huge chasm between what users think is good for them and the actual capacity they have to not ha
