All due respect, but this is lunacy. The way the guy reacted then hung up is unconscionable. The WHO is clearly corrupted by China's money. And the US is still connected to Taiwan …

Another way to say this, how does lying tell the truth? I don't understand corporations that decide to lie like this. I noticed Facebook Messenger does this fun thing where you can…

My disdain for Pinterest is at unrecoverable levels because of this and the fact they display interesting photos without any details or source listed even if logged in. I often won…

Perhaps this could be justified but at least tip off the fellow agents and law enforcement there that there's two men with machine guns approaching. Instead, the FBI agent watched …

Low interest rates certainly lead to non-optimal housing development. I completely support massive government funding of energy, nuclear, technology and research. But I don't suppo…

It’s so extra in its absurdism that I’d rather believe in sinister intent than systemic stupidity. The delivery address is the smallest possible font hidden behind screens. The end…

The world is bad UX which I tend to think is a conspiracy. For example, the Postmates driver app functions like it was programmed (automated) in a parallel dimension by toddlers in…

Yet an FBI agent can literally encourage the first ISIS attack in the US and it’s covered on 60 Minutes but no one bats an eye. We’re left just to assume this is the only time it’s…

You’re right, there are more people outside walking in areas than need to be. Walking in areas where there would be less people or none. People sitting on sidewalks, grass areas et…

In general, it’s a great question: why does it take such extreme overhead to run a digital company that’s like Craigslist with better pictures. I understand it’s more than that but…

Ok but he’s held very intellectual conversations with physicists so I can only infer he has a basic fundamental knowledge — despite the ego and fantastical colorful language. And I…

Physicists want to forbid people from exploring ‘philosophies of sciences’ in public? You can only discuss official ideas codified by peer review? And of course it’s one of the mai…

Regardless if he’s wrong, what he’s saying sounds interesting even to a physics PhD I’d imagine. The scientific community doesn’t know why there’s 3 generations of particles, heck …

I know we’re not supposed to refer to downvotes, but I had cancer and I worked in medicine. My points are valid and downvoting them is analogous is to the collectivist groupthink i…

Cancer’s not one thing but there’s some things you can do to generally improve your odds. A doctor and an oncologist won’t tell you these things because they’re not even thinking a…

I always criticized the idea that “radical technology could exist but the competition buys it up” as a naive conspiracy theory. It’s pretty remarkable that the government paid for …

One of the most absurd consequences of CarPlay is the USB car ports are often 1 amp. So my phone dies faster. Combined with Apple forcing you to use Apple Maps, makes me cynical of…
