1. I'm not so sure. Due to the threat of terrorism and tax fraud Governments would most probably not want, National Parliaments — if not controlled by a governmental majority — however most probably would, as this would help paint the

Nothing, these would only apply as law to member states. Since December 13 2016, accession talks have been stopped and from the last interview to Erdogan that I've heard on an European TV, it was clear he no longer believes Turkey will

Last year when I upgraded my phone I was amused — but mostly horrified — by how easily one could get a SIM card for my own phone number with less than a modicum of information on me. As I required to upgrade my Micro SIM to a Nano SIM, I we

Be fair, we're no longer living in the 60's, and as we all know the impetus to reach "the stars" was driven by as much as national pride as well as show of force and muscle flexing to the rest of the world. I concur that

I agree, but then that's why we have governments and why monopolies are all but outlawed in most democratic countries.

Then what does? Most of the innovation we have witnessed and enjoy in our society for the past 20-30 years has not been driven by governmental money or agencies but by private money.

But people do in fact make their own small investments when they opt for one provider of a service or the other. For a multi billion dollar infrastructure project, your capacity to contribute with either 50K or 50$ would still amount to les

And yet, only very large companies are able to make a certain class of investments in infrastructure and services — that push technology and society forward as a whole — that small to mid companies due to lack of capacity never could, and g

Back in 2013, after a complicated break up, I decided that seeing photos of my ex randomly appearing with her new SO in our common friends posts was not helping me at all, and so, I left Facebook. After all these years I've not missed

Nope, these are not koans. I recommend D.T. Suzuki essays on zen buddhism, namely second series for a proper explanation of the koan exercise. Apparently the author of the blog only focused on japanese zen stories, which is unfortunate, as
