Somehow, newspapers thrived for hundreds of years by simply placing Ads on the periphery of the news stories. Nothing obscured your view of the story, nothing crawled across the bottom, etc. Advertisers provided the lions share of their revenue.
Now the Ads drive people away. They get blocked and advertisers see no return on their investment...hence the need for Paywalls.
Perhaps if your ads weren't so fucking obnoxious and intrusive.
I can imagine the the napkin that was used to write down the initial idea...."need a way for people to publish ill considered thoughts and get themselves fired or otherwise ostracized. And do in in less than 140 characters. "
I'd consider having one if i had the ability to operate on an Intranet.
It would be great for controlling lights, temps, security, initiating calls, taking messages, etc. Unless you are relying on resources you don't have on your local PCs, there is no need to call back to the mothership. Internet searches would be cool without anything additional being tracker above and beyond that which is tracked when I sit at the keyboard.
I'd also like to give it another name. It would be great if it could detect inflections so that it could discern the difference between the name Alexis being used in a sentence vs a command being issued.

Invariable is it is some legal, medical, or insurance thing that requires my signature...so click this link.
You jest, but people thought the machine gun was going to make war too terrible to wage.
The New York Times, in 1897, called Maxim’s invention “terrible automatic engines of war,” and suggested their mere existence might convince world leaders to settle conflicts diplomatically.
It seems that the worst things are often the handy work of people trying to prove something.
BTW, a single Gulfstream 650 is about $65 million base price. It goes up from there.
Gulfstream's margin is very slim. Which means most of that $65 Mil goes to workers, suppliers, supplier's workers, etc.
What universities can do is simply eliminate tuition for graduate students across the board. While some may choose to not work ( in some non-scientific areas), most will anyway since their PhD depends on their demonstrating skills that can only be obtained through that work.
As far as we know, no one has ever defined or quantified these characteristics
1. Can Read and write. 2. Speaks English and do #1 in English. 3. A degree of some kind? 4. Lack of association with any radical groups. 5. A US citizen who will sponsor them.

A whole story on how Crypto Currencies are not cryptography.
If actually read what he said about Social Media I don't know how anyone can really disagree with his position on it.
By all indications it does isolate people, cause political divisions, and is a huge waste of time.

I don't know...my company was just purchased by Lockheed.
They are big Mac and Linux fans. I think most of the infrastructure servers are Linux.
Funny...I started with an Apple II, then Apple III, then various Macs, then to Windows for 20 years. Now, I may end up back on a Mac.
