Attacks on someone's culture are high cost and low benefit. Culture is important to people, and attacks on culture can foster unnecessarily-large responses given what is at stack. However, there is also very little to gain from the att

Almost any smart product these days starts with a couple of basic assumptions: - All consumers own smartphones and like using them - Consumers have no idea how their home networking works - Consumers could not move a file from their compute

No one agrees on what "consciousness" means, so it's very difficult to debate it with anyone.

Hard to know how to feel about this. Bots and such have really ruined the value of customer reviews. The best that can be said is they don't work as intended. The question is whether Amazon can actually fix this problem rather than con

Are there _any_ good video game movies whatsoever? The 2005 Doom film was the easiest miss I'd ever seen. All they needed to do was remake Aliens, but with Doom. Instead of ending up in the Alien nest, you end up in hell. No idea how t

People have what you might call a comparison disease. Once something can be compared with something that is "better" in some metric, most people are unable to think about whether or not the "lesser" version is sufficient

Whether or not it came to legal notices, these sorts of "use technology to make the other technology less-bad" tactics are always temporary games of cat-and-mouse. Fine in the short term, but not something that offers a full, stab

I'm not sure how to discuss bidet problems without sounding gross. I tried a bidet previously because people rave about them. But when trying them, there seems to be two problems. The water that hits you sprays around on impact. So tha

There would need to be some articulable upside to data centers, though. Even if we agree there should be less livestock, I don't see how that has any bearing on the data centers topic.

I don't hate data centers any less. That's 17B gallons wasted on something I don't care about and actively want less of.

People are fundamentally short-term thinkers. Just imagine spraying neurotoxins on your lawn. You're "saved" from the "terror" of noticing more than one kind of grass, but of course you're incrementally increas
