I only got four hours of sleep last night, and it’s miserable after only one night.

If you watch to the end you’ll see a guy who learned to murder a POW in cold blood, though.

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy defines the marketing devision of the Sirius Cybernetic Corporation young founders as "a bunch of mindless jerks who’ll be the first against the wall when the revolution comes,”

Maybe the rest is porn.

As you say, tools are just tools. Even a dumb phone and CD players are “technology.” You can use a hammer to build a house, or you can use it to break into a house and kill the owner. The tool itself really doesn’t hold any sin.

Some people prefer to use older tools, though. It often gives them more of a feeling of connection, especially if we’re talking about the things they grew up with. So, there’s nothing wrong with choosing older technology just because you feel like it, either.

100% agreed. A Reddit clone with Reddit amounts of users will end up almost as bad as Reddit. The thing that makes Reddit worse in that situation is that they are a public company.

This platform would have to evolve a lot before it can deal with so many users. There has to be some significant innovation and improvement in moderation and administration, or more users would inevitably lead to endemic misinformation and power tripping and all of that shit you see on Reddit.

If a car hits something stationary, it is always the driver’s fault, with a few uncommon exceptions, such as if somebody hit the car first, pushing it into that other thing, or if the car in front of them plows into it without slowing down, and they don’t have time to react. It is one of a driver’s most basic responsibilities not to hit something that is just sitting there in the road.

Americans can understand if you phrase it differently.

“You know how sometimes, you go to a big event, and the parking is so far away from the event that they have to ferry people from the parking lots to the event using a bus? Well, this is just like that, except you park at home.”

I’d hire a private investigator to find out the true identity of the Batman.

Businesses are a separate use case. Phone companies already handle separate use cases, where they use very short memorable numbers for specific purposes. They just need something similar, whether it’s keeping phone numbers, or using something slightly different. Probably some sort of simple alias.

It’s the phone companies that need to innovate, and the solution isn’t very hard.

It’s really the phone companies’ fault for stagnating instead of innovating.

There is no reason at this point for most people to have phone numbers at all. We have the technology today to throw the whole concept out the window.

Replace it with something where a stranger couldn’t guess how to contact a random person. Replace it with something where third parties can’t easily share your contact info.

You could even have both technologies at the same time to help transition. And we do, as users, but we still need phone numbers because our carriers don’t give us multiple options directly.

Phone numbers are based on requirements for a system that’s almost 150 years old now. Back when the numbers really meant locations and before people realized how easy it could be exploited to steal old people’s retirement money.

He was trying to cross the street in India.

For reference, although she didn’t do it perfectly, this is basically how you cross the street in India. You just walk out into moving traffic and hope they don’t kill you.

I was talking to a coworker about how I thought public transit was superior to individual cars, and so we should put a lot more investment into it, and his response was, “You’ll have to pry my car keys out of my cold dead hands.”

Like, dude, I wasn’t even talking about that.

Anyways, my point is that a big thing missing from this is how people often build their identities around their stupid fucking cars.
