Under no circumstances should one be rolling up their sleeves or shorts in an effort to somehow diminish one’s tan lines

I am never angry if someone "uses" my idea. Copying (whether selective or global) is a direct or an inderect acknowledgment. In a sense, we all copy from everywhere, ideas are circulating and this is nice.

Isn’t that amazing? Companies build entire businesses around actively making our lives worse. And they do it because it works.

Denne cast film har en meget ensartet kvalitet og meget transparent. Den har derudover meget lav afrulningslyd, og rullerne har ingen tendens til at teleskopere.

In the book the authors happily take up the white geek’s burden. A liberal sprinkling of convenient, hypothetical dark-skinned worthies appear: Congolese fisherwomen, graphic designers in Botswana, anticorruption activists in San Salvador and illiterate Masai cattle herders in the Serengeti are all obediently summoned to demonstrate the progressive properties of Google phones jacked into the informational supply chain of the Western empire.

He told the gathering in San Francisco that most of the money that’s donated to help poor people goes to international development organizations, not poor people directly. GiveDirectly’s giving has had “big impacts on nutrition, education, land and livestock” and “hasn’t been shown to increase how much people drink,” Niehaus emphasized. “A typical poor person is poor not because he is irresponsible, but because he was born in Africa.”

Long nails stop you doing stuff, in much the same way high heels can. If they're an indicator of status, then sod status.

Mange af lærerne får en økonomisk belønning for antallet af gode elever i deres klasse.
Derfor lægger både skoler og lærere ofte pres på eleverne, fordi de tjener penge på dem.

most humans will become permanently unemployable since there will be nothing they can do that a robot can't do better and cheaper, which means there will be too few consumers to create demand for the products the robots can create. The only way out will be to vest humans at birth with ownership shares in the robot means of production, as Noah Smith has suggested, creating a post-capitalist society of hereditary aristocratic humans and robot slaves.

Qworty’s edits undermine our trust in this great project. Qworty’s edits prove that Wikipedia’s content can be shaped by people settling grudges and acting out of spite and envy. Qworty alone, by his own account, has made 13,000 edits to Wikipedia. And Qworty, as the record will show, is not to be trusted.

So we work through workshops. Prototyping, iterating, communicating… going from concept to version one.
But in recent years, companies have been asking us what connected products mean for them. Are there new features? New product categories? New business models? And what we’ve found is that it’s hard to prototype.

Nonetheless, Puente Hills is now a sufficiently large landform to generate its own microclimate and wind patterns—with the effect that several gigantic fans and berms dot the edges of the plateau, to keep wind from blowing over residential areas of Whittier.
Meanwhile, what look like large fishing rods stuck into the ground are actually bird deterrents. "In the old days," says Hewitt, "they would just shoot a sea gull in the morning—this was back in the 1960s or 70s. They’d wing a seagull, leave it out, and it would squawk and warn the other seagulls away. You don’t do that anymore."

According to Viollet-le-Duc, the subtraction process followed a very precise rhombohedral prismatic pattern consistent throughout the whole. Mont Blanc thus acts as one huge crystal formation—every edge, every peak and aiguille follows a geodesic structure. The pattern creates a network of cells, a type of formation that Viollet-le-Duc found also at the micro level in glacial formation. This hexagonal configuration, based upon the equilateral triangle, proved the most fundamental and consistent principle of organization within Viollet-le-Duc’s late writings and architecture.

How we guffawed a mist of flat white coffee onto our iPads when a survey said that half of Americans think that stormy weather affects cloud computing [1]. But they were right. The infrastructure running cloud computing both suffers and generates its own weather.

But look again at the graphs above. Now imagine similar graphs for the Android source code. Any company with Android-based products that wants to be truly free from Google’s control has to be prepared—and able—to match Google’s output.

I could, in theory, at this point attempt to build a version of this phone for myself, with minimal cash investment. It feels like open-source, but it’s not: it’s a different kind of open ecosystem.

Of course, you can’t just call up Mediatek and buy these; and it’s extremely difficult to engage with them “going through the front door” to do a design. Don’t even bother; they won’t return your calls.

You can't imagine the feeling of triumph when I first saw the telltale signs of burning iron: sparks bursting from the metal, and then a rush of flame out of the other side as I witnessed perhaps the first-ever example of bacon-cut steel.

John Guillory made the counterintuitive suggestion that the exhausting canon debates of the 1980s culture wars were really “a crisis in the market value of [the literary curriculum’s] cultural capital, occasioned by the emergence of a professional-managerial class which no longer requires the [primarily literary] cultural capital of the old bourgeoisie.”

But the idea that the Internet is just a concept goes only so far. Even if it is dangerous to overgeneralize, we necessarily use concepts all the time, such as “the United States” or the “NFL.” It sometimes makes sense to discuss the future of the United States, or the Internet, as one entity, even if we know it may change. For Morozov, however, any such discussions amount to “Internet-centrism,” which for him seems to be a kind of thought crime.

Gibson er meget bevidst om - og tak for det - hvor overfladisk science fiction egentlig er, hvor utrolig forkert meget vås fra science fiction bøgerne er, og han er bevidst om hvordan han selv har brugt sine forudsigelser: Det er billeder. Ikke ting, begreber, teorier, men lige netop billeder - overflader.

Det har jeg altid opfattet som en anerkendelse af min flid og arbejdsomhed, men i disse leverpostejtider, hvor selv skolelæreres arbejdsforhold skal justeres, så de kommer til at ligne fabriksarbejderes, får man unægtelig en vis mistanke: vor tids næsten lydløse computere giver jo ingen som helst mulighed for at kontrollere, at en ægtemand og forfatter overhovedet bestiller noget! Fedteriet med pen og papir fra morgenstunden, er der ingen andre end ham selv, der kan læse, og det kan jo være hvad som helst.
