Seems to me like modeling every single job based on census data seems unnecessary. Couldn't you also use maybe even just other census data or zoning data on the types of businesses and then pattern based on density, esp. with such roug

I would be more interested in a weighted map that is controlled by population, which would reveal places where property values are undervalued.

"The sole decoration was a poster of a dozen varieties of mangoes" That's so cliche. Ha. I can imagine that conversation "Our front is a fruit import/export legitimate business. We should hang up some posters of fru

The governments will simply step up their particular set of sticks and carrots to compel companies to be incentivized to not do those kinds of things. What, did you, the cattle, think you could revolt against your rancher masters with impun

Anyone want to take bets that it was written on an Apple device? I find auto-correct has such a high error rate. There are even certain basic error patterns it simply cannot recognize like when typing on an iPhone and the lowest row of char

And the devastation the NSA cast upon the American tech sector continues. Let's see how long it takes for France to cast off American technology companies.

I find it rather peculiar that they highlighted iPod when there hasn't been any kind of update to any of the iPods in over three years and no substantial update in more than that.

What really has not been highlighted to even remotely an adequate level is the huge damage to the trust and confidence in the USA as the stalwart and upstanding sentinel image that we have cultivated to exquisitely over decades now. If ther

That's kind of ignorant of the fact that such a mentality starts breaking down a system of trust and confidence that can lead to major cracks in economy and retaliatory actions. It is never a good rule to simply play a game that only h

What's most pathetic is that the peasants take up arms for Uber to crush any resistance. It drives me nuts. Sure, you love Uber, I love the service they provide too, but there are always consequences when you get in bed with the devil.

It drives me nuts to see the manic crowds come to the defense of Goliath. Sure, taxi's suck ass in many cities and I really like the accountable based system of Uber and their high standards, but that is no justification for essentiall

There are some really interesting things on that map. The apparent huge influx of people into France and the UK is one. Another amazing thing is that after what I think is around $1 trillion dollars spent in former east German states post r

And facebook users are it's foot-soldiers. As long as people converge on Facebook and while Zuckerberg moves ever closer to his goal of replacing the internet with Facebook, the assault will not cease until the society has been subjuga

The thing about this is that as long as there is a private prison industry, or really any privatization of fundamental government functions, that makes profits, there will be investors that will replace anyone who makes some moral investmen

Hey, guys. You should all stand in a line and start lobbing lead projectiles at each other.

Bravo, Apple. Humongous security hole and you don't address it in six months? I hope it's being readied for inclusion in 8.4. We all know how it bruises Apple's ego to have to patch stuff without acting like it'a a featu

They don't have the baggage of all the atrocities of the past, they aren't overtly racist on principle, and they have no qualms taking advantage or the situation and participating in the corruption and exploitation. How is that su

I'm not sure how he makes the association to UI, but I agree that the minimalist and flat designs are way too far gone to be useful. Sure, I despise noisy and cluttered and fake leather bound UI too, but that doesn't mean we need

To be fair, they don't monitor whether the 0Day exploits are widely used so they have no idea when they should make them public for general security purposes. (yes, that's sarcasm) But the way the entities operate that are actuall

What is most worrisome is that even with all the overwhelming documentation, people, especially in the USA are largely ignoring it. Sure there are some that protest and there is much ado about the violations in European countries, but reali

I think it's worth refining that statement. It's not really the overuse and weariness, it's the lack of boundaries and limitations that causes abuses and maladjusted behaviors. Just like any spoiled brat with too much money a

Wait. Didn't VICE do an excellent expose on this very topic, relief capitalism? edit: they call it disaster capitalism, but relief capitalism is also a real thing. Pretty sure it's not the full episode, but this is a summary of th

I have a feeling that some country is going to become significantly wealthy simply by becoming the world's data storage where data is protected from the heinous hands of our governments. All of this is somewhat only a nuisance at the m

In a way, this is really not unlike slavery in its nature. It is the undue extraction and exploitation of wealth and money through abusive means. This time around it's just that the source of that money and wealth is not human labor as
