World War 3 starts. Personal data stored in banks/ISPs/FB/Google etc are taken at gun point and used for population scale psychological warfare. Kissinger(World Order)/Niall Ferguson(Square and the Tower)/Graham All

Dominic Cummings, Steve Bannon, Olavo de Carvalho, Amit Shah, endless number of similar clones in EU...just amazing to watch what kind of people are getting propped up by the attention economy.

Temple Grandin does talks about this stuff but it's more along the lines of awareness raising. Join that mailing list...might be a good place to find people that are trying the same thing. Ironically where I worked, the person had it e

I have had experience with someone who wanted to do this and it didn't go well. A subject matter expert wanted to be team leader because that's what he thought career progress was. Within a few weeks the team collapsed. Creativity

Good points about familiarity and regularity. There is a lot of scope to improve online spaces by bringing those elements in. And maybe getting rid of/reducing - infinite scroll addictive news streams + upvotes/likes/retweet&

Once upon a time I worked at a Video host for news and other content publishing companies. They track (and in many cases decide) what you watch as you jump from site to site. They know exactly what kind of people (personality trait wise) wi

Depends on size of the project. They do it often actually. Sometimes after they have decided to move internal maintainers/teams elsewhere, or don't have budgets to support the project anymore, or the company strategy has changed e

I agree everyone has an agenda but if they are all just playing the same move - Tit for Tat - provoke-react then what happens? Nothing. Stalemate. Someone has to use some imagination and change the way they play the game. Right now, one day

Facts are freely accessible these days compared to the past. A large part of Education in the past wasn't designed with that in mind. So Education IS changing to meet that reality but its still a work in progress. Consensus is still de

You should be able to make that case to your prof. You would probably get points for it :) Some profs are subject matter experts who have no actual understanding of Pedagogy. So they pick up whatever rules someone else tells them to use, an

If Airbus wants to hire 300 software engineers, good luck finding them in reasonable time periods in Germany or France. Local small niche firms can survive. The larger you get the longer it takes to hit hiring goal. You will understand that

Companies will outsource, move development centers elsewhere etc etc. Visa restrictions alone aren't going to save anyones job. The world is too competitive.

They did act. Muilenburg was Chairman & CEO and they removed him as Chairman in October. It probably took the new Chairman a month or two to work out what shit Muilenburg was feeding the board prior to that.

Agree. I was just adding some context about these narratives. And I really have no issues with anything you have said.

Well it teaches us a couple things. The same narrative replays with many successful people - Bruce Lee (Jiddu Krishnamurthi), John Lennon, Brian Josephson (Mahesh Yogi), Steve Jobs etc etc. And from there it becomes myth for the rest of the

Cost of distribution maybe free but attracting qualified and useful reviews is definitely not. People who think open access is the solution to that are dealing with a focusing illusion - https://www.edge.org/response-detail&
