No, you are cutting off the nose to spite the face. Clearly if you lean heavily toward one of the two major parties, you should want to influence the party you lean to in some way.
Voting 3rd party is throwing away your vote in the US electoral system. The reason is structural. Currently, I believe there are two independent senators and one independent representative. Independents are not another…
This is correct. That is why I changed from independent to an actual political party. There is no point, it is highly improbable that I would ever vote for the party that is against my values. The two main US political…
> What right does a Flock camera violate? The first amendment, fourth amendment, and the fourteenth amendment of the US Constitution. You should read it.
We need more celebrities to step up like Dolly. You will be missed.
That wing of the Republican Party does not exist anymore, they are now centrist Democrats.
Thank you for the heads up! DDOS attacks are pretty concerning, but even more concerning is the potential alteration of content. Diabolical. That said, journalism needs funding more than ever, please if you can, try…
> Because our daily complicity ... Exactly this. We were (still are) complicit in our own destruction and worst yet when other courageous people spoke up we shout them down, hid away, laughed at their folly, or shunned…
Billionaires are also susceptible to extreme forms this disease. It was also known as hubris to the ancient Greeks.
First, we need to make it illegal to say you are buying something when you are actually renting. Words mean something.
There is just no skepticism these days. We are constantly being lied to by tech leaders.
This is going to sound controversial, but sometimes it is good to have a paper copy stored in a secure vault.
> This is a terrible way to learn. What you are saying is not evidence based. The lecture method has delivered the greatest minds in western and eastern civilization for centuries. The newer pedagogical methods are…
I asked Gemini to generate a picture of Peter Pan and Wendy (for a workbook I am putting together for youth summer reading) and it preceded to refuse due to copyright. Not everything about that work is owned by Disney.…
Good analysis, goes through the pros and cons of the adaptation. IMHO Nolan made some strong choices and the result is a great film, don’t miss it! What a time to be alive!
Large lectures (100+ students) should have little to no interactions between students and lecturers. It has been this way since the 11th century. You are not supposed to be learning the material for the first time…
I am genuinely fascinated by this. I don’t like piling on especially with security vulnerabilities, but man how many red flags do you need to ignore? They won’t stop abusing us until we stop using their products.
Funny enough I have had this conversation during the ACA “Obama Care” national (US) debate in the early 2000s. I have had one of my colleagues say if we give healthcare to everybody then it will affect his care…
I think we are all villains here. Good healthcare coverage is just another status symbol to be attained. If the poor have it then it becomes less of a value. To some degree we are all wired this way and we all suffer…
Exactly. Nothing is going to get better until consumers realize they have the power (at least for now).
Good! Did you really need more Stargate? Just watch the classic movie, and 200+ episodes of SG-1 and then 100+ episodes of Atlantis. Let these franchises rest.
This is just my subjective opinion, but it looks like the car has a Pixar aesthetic. I am not in to it, but I am glad Ferrari is willing to take some design risks. I am not sure who this is for.
Here is a fun one, my mobile phone company has an account lock along with a pin and OTP over SMS system. In order for me to activate a new device (like an phone upgrade) with eSIM over the phone, I need to unlock my…
Memory optimization is incredibly low hanging fruit. We have been so spoiled with the abundance of memory. There is just so much code out there that does not manage object life cycles well (over allocation, leaks,…
The semiconductor fab process changes dynamically to manage yield. It is not a static environment, automating with robotics is fine when things are static like a automotive assembly line, but high end semiconductor fabs…
