I've read the Bobiverse series too :-). Maybe the question then is, do intelligent species have the will to invest the capital and labor required when there is no payoff in those decision-makers lifetimes? I think there are individuals

I wonder if the "generational problem" is a potential reason for the Fermi Paradox. If it is extremely difficult for a species to expend resources on multi-generational projects, then the species horizon is only that which can be

And when it's offered for free once, it's then a race to the bottom. People in general don't understand the value of curation nor quality, especially when it comes to information. So it's hard for well-curated high quali

We started with a Betamax player. I think one underappreciated reason for VHS's win was that you could put a movie on one VHS tape, whereas the Betamax required two (at least at the time it mattered). And in an era of movie rental stor

Is it just me who 15 years ago laughed at the first big April Fools jokes by companies online, but now just cringes when I see headlines like this?

I pay for kagi.com and they seem to be fighting that battle. I also frequent their "small web" ( https://blog.kagi.com/small-web ) initiative.

I did much the same thing (and much more) 10 years ago. I used a RPi as well as a Canon point-and-shot out my window. My pics were 1 per minute. Here is a link to the keogram section (I didn't know the term), but watch the whole video,

Thanks for the link. I don't like videos tagged as "made for children" because videos tagged that way aren't able to be put in a playlist or "watch later" queues. That's a YouTube thing, but YouTube doesn&
