Sure, some computer people live in bubble. But the idea that humanities professors are going to help change that instead of making them even more deluded I think is wrong. The humanities are currently a toxic breeding…
The last thing programmers need to do is get involved with people who "work" in the social "sciences". These people are the most useless and deluded fools on earth. We need to absolutely defund these people and remove…
This guy is overreacting. He didn't fail that badly, he managed to create something that sold hundreds of copies. He said his experience was "soul crushing" and that being an indie dev is some hopeless thing now, yet…
Computers are about control and wanting to return to the old days of aiding the power user has nothing to do with nostalgia.
I agree with this guy that having to use a mouse is often a chore and inefficient. Google search used to have a feature where you could hit tab after a search and it would auto select the results in order, but that…
The futurism this guy pushes seems like trolling. He is a really smart engineer and has to know what he says is hugely exaggerated. He is just making stuff up.
It makes sense that he would shill for 'smart' cities because that implies expanding the 24/7 surveillance state.
Has anyone ever actually been bothered by having an audio jack? Having to plug in an adapter is not futuristic, its annoying.
These losers that lost the battle of ideas really want to push a message that anything that goes against their narrative and interests automatically implies evil, criminality and debauchery. Nobody cares if people in…
Any person or group that manages to avoid paying taxes should be celebrated. The solution to this "problem" should not be that the wealthy pay more taxes, but that nobody should have to pay taxes since it is blatant…

Mobile is not a major threat to desktops, they serve different purposes. People who have desktop PCs aren't getting rid of them because they bought a phone or tablet. Even though Microsoft has questionable practices…
If we confult Experience and the credible Relati- ons of others, we fiiall find it probable enough that many things receive Nourilhment from meet Elements.
a Basket of Figs and a Letter, did by the way eat up a great part of his Carriage, conveying the remainder unto the Perfon to whom he was di- rected, who when he had read the Letter, and not finding the quantity of Figs…
This is a non-issue, friend. Fake news is any news that goes against our benevolent allies at Google, the SPLC, the ADL.. basically groups that never have any bias or self-interest. We can let great guys like Mark…
People believe in conspiracy because it is a real thing that happens. Human beings conspire, manipulate and lie. You can say that most popular examples of conspiracy theories are absurd but it does not make the concept…
There is still plenty of room left in electronic music for new ideas and exciting masterpieces. Popular music is definitely especially vile today, but that does not make the musical form itself dead.
"Supporters of women in tech praised Google." .. total lockdown of discourse is helpful to women? Outright firing anybody who dares to ask for open discussion is creating a more woman friendly working environment? This…
Maybe they should work in salt mines? What is so bad about that? We need to get rid of this stigma that if you're not an intellectual then you're automatically some poor serf at the bottom rungs of society. Your…
They want to lower the bar so that they can pass more low-mediocre people though the system, give them the false idea that they are intelligent and eventually give them government jobs. They need a class of useful…
