The author's critiques seem nit-picky to me. I'd like to hear from somebody that follows this, scrolling through SciAm articles published in the past few years, it seems like the b…

Probably would categorize this under "teh futurez!1!" in the original article

KYM is super biased in what ends up there, as it leans heavily towards 4chan and Reddit content, with heavy amounts of Twitch and certain genres in YouTube. It's missing a lot of m…

After riding in both Cruise and Waymo cars in SF, I think that Waymo cars are so much more road-ready. While my Waymo rides all seemed pretty smooth albeit with a timid driver, my …

Has someone made a VSCode extension for this yet?

I think the future of hackathon/startup coding will involve tools to make infrastructure that's far more cookie cutter and easy to setup than today. This is a cool approach - start…

For housing, like many issues, it's definitely partisan. One party is anti-density and one is a big-tent umbrella. Elizabeth Warren was on the podium saying, "build, build, build!"…

I went to Georgia Tech 2016-2020. CS 2803, 4803, and 8803 are all codes for special topics courses that haven't been standardized or established, so the class you linked is pretty …

Agree with these takes. My company's system having the channel #eng- -lobby as a q/a forum for all teams has been incredible for spreading information, although I could imagine som…

To Instagram, which they already bought

Looks like OSM doesn't have a ton of data on US pipelines or water lines. It's understandable. I do wonder if tools like this would encourage more mapping of these.

I don't know of any of my peers that took a course that heavily relied on a textbook; it feels like most university intro CS courses spend most of the time commitment in lectures a…

I played that game a ton, but was always bad. It, along with Halo, were two games I could put on a USB stick to play on school computers. Both were great for poor hardware.

I-70 is the reason I didn't apply to jobs in Colorado. I don't know how much people carpool, but at least there's some infrastructure for it now. I just wish the state would put so…

Purg, Wolf Creek, & Loveland haven't had big lines any times I've been there. My mother said Los Alamos, Santa Fe, & Taos lift lines are far better now on powder days than when she…

I'm bothered by the focus on "performative" social media posting that many people, such as this author, have adopted - it's a cynical personal attack that doesn't accomplish much. …

It's on purpose

I disagree. The initial investments in these big currencies were from people thinking that they could become a practical currency with real-world use due to its lack of regulation …

Park city is particularly atrocious because most of the place is designed as this super spread out suburb around arterial roads - if they just had massive condos downtown near the …

Processed foods at grocery stores, at least. Here's what I assume the oxfam infographic in the article's dead link looks like: https://www.behindthebrands.org/images/media/Images/A…

I really like Taylor Lorenz, and I appreciate that someone is willing to take tiktok trends seriously besides marketing agents. She must take her DMs really seriously and be gettin…

It seems like a lot of WSB stock runs are amplified by automated trading strategies. Between the information that hedge funds get from Robinhood and the feeds I'm sure they might h…

I agree with you that most susceptible populations have probably gotten it by now, especially among people living on reservations. It's hard to imagine that the real numbers would …
