Perhaps the ethical qualms could be settled if the tracing of workers were handled by a neutral third party. Being tracked by parties you are affiliated with opens a whole can of worms.
Not in the way that biological organisms are conscious, if that is what you mean. Though we share similar binary frameworks, the AI is not a celled organism with the biological capacity to live consciously as we are.
For children or for adults, the fatalist style of Tolstoy is what lends him the unmistakable charm. A part of our being, I think, will always desire to be liberated from the norm of not discussing pity or death without any moral undertone. Life and violence can be sad and violent, Tolstoy reminds us.
Thanks for your hard work! The tool has been extremely helpful in my political science research. I have noticed that a sort of error occurs when I try to scrape too many tweets from too many accounts at once (which I do by referencing a txt file with the account names that I want to scrape tweets from). I've fixed this by just making shorter lists of account names. Is there another workaround I am unaware of?
As a political science student, I am compelled to point the allure of minimalism to the Greco-Athenian ideal of being self-sustaining (to a fair degree). The lack of material possession suggests, to others, that one is complete and satisfied in their seemingly ideal state.
It feels to me that Apple affords the benefit of Facebook, in that users do not anticipate asking "where's my stuff". But the added benefit is the perceived security and reliability of Apple.
Assuming that most people would not be comfortable with walking through a city square with their email address taped on their back, how do users justify sharing personal contact information (attached to their academic and professional profiles) in posts that are known to go viral? Has LinkedIn enforced any measures to prohibit unwarranted mass data collection for profit?
This is an interesting point. Either the government would then need businesses to disclose their "rating" (similar to movies) or businesses could opt in to show a seal (like Fairtrade bananas). The problem is, if there aren't enough (popular) sites with the seal, then the value of this declaration is lost.
This article remarks on the shared experience of suffering from TB among the two. I find it strange how TB had been molded into a glamorous disease reserved for the middle-upper class in times when writers like Camus and Weil were public patients. We, in a way, see a similar sort of sensationalism around a new virus with the Canadian PM's wife and Tom Hanks both being victims. The logic of the rebel is supported by the veneer of a medical malady—contextualized malady.
