Bowing to censorship? Bowing isn't necessarily done happily. Or maybe more ideas are also in play? Perhaps recognizing the existing power dynamics? Perhaps playing the game over a longer time frame? Not all ethicists…

Fair points. Stargate: wow! With that kind of return on investment on $20 M, psychic readings for $10 a pop sound like a bargain in comparison. At worst, the readers are good at reading some signals hiding in plain…
Tell me more about your claim that an org, person, or brand gets only one chance at trust. What exactly do you mean? What about the passage of time? Memories can be reshaped; public opinion even more so. Is your claim…
Knowledge of this kind of disruption leads to more disruption? Why? What theories support this? Has this been shown empirically?
Where did you hear about it?

Sarcasm? Forgive those of us who can't tell.
Saying everyone is replaceable is a first-degree approximation. The next level of detail would talk about, at least: (a) how much knowledge gets lost; (b) how many person hours -and- "wall clock time" it takes to…
Hello tip, meet iceberg.
One problem with a humorous (yes, I am not all serious all the time) comment like this is while there could be some degree truth to it -- provide a source if so, please -- it smacks of exaggeration.
Privacy is not a one dimensional thing. Just like security, it exists in context, relative to a threat model. Think about the threat model for an "everyday" person. It is different than an American journalist contacting…
"I'll take anal bum cover for $7000." -fake Sean Connery on SNL Jeopardy, selecting from the "An Album Cover" category
I found some studies from OSHA (the United States gov't agency) about very high carbon dioxide levels in certain industry settings, such as where dry ice is used. Effects on cognition are significant at high levels. But…
Let's talk about those four words: 1. Your comment is claiming that my comment is overgeneralized? It is not. 2. I will grant my reply may be uninteresting to you. Unfortunately it did seem to push one of your buttons,…
You are lashing out. I'm sorry you feel hurt or insulted. My first comment did not attack you personally. It criticized your writing and reasoning. Substantively, I disagree with about 80% of your sentences, but I don't…
Overgeneralized, uninteresting, ranty, speculation
How many? (an estimate is ok)
If you grant some problems require policies at the state government level, which may have a wide range of geographic sizes and demographic compositions, how can you not grant there are problems that can only be…
Government spending has in many cases an excellent track record of shaping investment. If you look at some of the brightest innovations, they got their start from government money. Funding on long time scales rarely…
I think all clear eyed people will recognize that almost all legislation is both flawed and a compromise. Sure, some environmental programs and regulation do not have as much affect as we would like: recycling plastic,…
