The thing that confuses me is the name of this site. Start up workers became hackers then get to be smug because they overspent $$ on a shiny turd?

I can understand smugness from those who contribute/maintain (what I understood by FOSS community), I don't understand the entitlement money brings.

I'm sure it must have been terrifying but overall I'd rather have the real war, Poor v Rich , than the deluded Poor v Poor. It would be over quickly and we won't even lose anything of value.

I'm not one for comprehension, but are you stating that if China prefers to have Biden at the helm, and if he wins that they colluded to get him there? Quite the gymnastics friend.

Great point. I find culture itself is 'brainwashing'. It is just influence on your thoughts/who you are. The term brainwashing brings a good amount of negativity and polarism. It's not something that happens to 'us' but 'them'.

We are all brainwashed to an extent. Knowing that can at least prepare you to bring a good scrub and soap on your washings.

We should also allow everyone to be able to hide their face/do funny walks forever into the future.

Looking at the title, I hope one day we can run a campaign for a ban on ALL(*gasp) mass surveillance, not just biometric :/

We will just have to figure out other ways to stop the terrorists.. (or stop creating them in the first place)

Why does this sound like a Skynet brief on the next target? Kudos to this amazing human. Makes the rest of us look horrible I know, we can at least show some support. Best of luck Ms Vestager!

Will there be any brains left to communicate with this interface by then? Can't we just make a pill that makes me want to buy things and skip out on this pervasive future?

It sounds like a great application for medical issues but does every consumer need one? The quotes from the guy from Magic Leap don't give me any hope that this won't be used to further program our race into some mindless consuming turds.

I wish I could sit and hype and wonder if/what can be done, but does anyone around these 'pioneers' ever ask them if they should?

You just need bank to make bank. He serves as a figure of greed to be idolized. If it wasn't him it would be some other (y)uppie in the valley.

Seems like every industry has their rockstar figures to pull in new interest. Good or bad, it's a talking point(I assume some modern marketing technique everyone eventually will read about).

I think we are mainly silenced by the hype folks who can't not tell the rest of the internet about their excitement. I'd like to think OP's opinion is the majority, hard to tell on a startup forum where most folks are hodling TSLA.

Which also makes it easier to find the patterns in its multiple(or just divide by the extra multiple) say 1/14 starts .07142857142857. Multiples with 3 don't give us the common repeating 1428 but still repeats in its own way.. but 1/49 is pretty cool. 1/49 looks to do what 1/89 is doing but with the powers of 2. Nice!

edit: Dont know the format for proofs but heres a try.

1/49 = i=1 towards inf

sum 2^i*100^-i

Isn't it obvious? adjusts tinfoil cap The ruskies have figured out a way to attack anyone who has breathed in our freedom air. They pumped their censored/locked air with specific anti-freedom(terror loving) characters which causes immediate discomfort to our free minds. Freedom.

In this case shareholders and investors are the main customers, with short term profits keeping them happy, execs get good bonuses, more money is poured in from market/vc to keep the gravy flowing. No incentive for the deicision makers to keep the product users(sometimes called just the products) happy, for the giants atleast.

Was hanging at 10-11 and shot up (eh) after Square invested 1% (50m) of their assets. Has been a steady rise (dont know trade terms 'scuse me), I:m assuming it might stay or jump a few more k. Disclaimer: I don't trade.

I guess on a tech forum, all the techies like to feel powerful. Also, words have never been taken more serious than before. Im sure you have noticed cancel culture. Now it's say what we like or your next!

Stuxnet can/should start wars, your social media app is just that, a social media app, let's not blow too hard.

I've noticed the warning call differs at times, I hear two chirps for land based predator and three for air. Small sample size, city finches.

Drove a Grubhub sales rep around. Usually between 15-30% depending on the package they picked. Which would also determine where they ranked on the site when someone searched for their cuisine. This was when they were just starting out their delivery program.

But but those billionaires won't be able to make a donation to a cause dear to them! Dont tax them, they're job creators. I'm pretty sure we are all just one good day away from being billionaires ourselves, don't hurt our future earnings! Intelligent obedience is a helluva drug.

It could be given an extra sense with LIDAR but that is 'a fool's errand' and not as profitable.

I should start carrying a stop sign in my pack, have some fun on the highway.

But this is the only way the children are safe. Dont you even care about kids? What are you a terrorist sympathizer?

Anyone who felt a jolt when I mentioned the T word should see a psychiatrist.
