That’s a pathetic moral band-aid. All technology can be used for good or used for evil depending on who is using it and how. From fire to internal combustion engines to nuclear ene…

Admiral Kirk and the Kobayashi Maru test.

Siemens?

> The list of argument is called "args" (short and descriptive) You’re proving the original point - it should be named “arguments” because that is what it is. Saving … 5 bytes? by …

You may be surprised to learn that when asked, teens would actually prefer that everyone give up social media. The key word is “everyone” and it’s a collective action problem. Exce…
