While financialized society is still standing, I'd much rather have money than material wealth. Security and freedom, time, and well-being. Worth much more than another luxury t-sh…

But people are expected to understand the part of the system they are responsible for at the level of abstraction they are being paid to operate. This new arrangement would be perf…

Can I ask how you made the animations in the Use Cases section?

They have a feature where you can take a photo and create a world from that. If instead of a photo you have a video feed, this is one step closer to implementing subjective experie…

I think this is the key component of developing subjective experience.

And yet still a more contemplative and responsible approach to morality.

> I think people don’t participate in religion because it asks of them. Many people are lazy, greedy or hedonistic. It takes effort and “practice” to be virtuous or religious. Say …

Negative press about religion, whether its corruption or its inefficacy, has led to lower participation in religion the world over.

Surely that's more Western philosophy than Christianity. If anything, Christianity impeded social progress. Even now, the most vocal Christians would contend that moral truths owe …

I want an all-screen iPod gen 2-4 as a phone.

I haven't used float in at least half a decade. CSS is easy.

What is the difference?

The word has many interpretations. You've touched upon just one (and the most fallacious: ad populum) of them. The masses can be extreme if they are: - wrong - deviates sharply fro…

Two problems from what I've seen so far: 1. Browser navigation overlapping website viewport in iOS Safari. What is the real height of the viewport? 2. Floating side panel on macOS:…

What's a general news forum with high quality commentators you think is relatively devoid of astroturfing?

This is mitigated by wrapping the main scrollable content in a container that has height: 100dvh and overflow: auto. It means that phone controls are always showing but it made a b…

I only caught a glimpse but what I saw for iOS Safari concerns me. The browser navigation overlaps the viewport. I wonder if this'll break websites/apps that anchor a menu to the b…

"The best design is design that gets out of the way" as a maxim will probably hold. Users may state a preference for "delight" and claim to be delighted by maximally rich graphics …

Even if one were to deny humans the will to "act", to think - as a verb, as some action being committed by a willing being or an automaton - by my definition, requires some weighin…

Webring.GG - www.webring.gg It's a democratic webring creator/management app where members can vote on new websites to join their ring.

It's no complete solution against AI slop but I've been working on www.webring.gg which is a democratic webring manager. To join, websites are invited and voted on by current membe…

My conjecture is that when people started to see non-taxi branded cars just idle on streets without parking, forcing people to cross over lanes around them, it broke a social barri…

I, for one, find joy and humor in my complaining.
