    Yes, we have a tendency to lack the ability to lie, which leads to great confusion as we can never understand why everybody around us is lying and nobody says what they mean.

    The funny thing is that society considers US the ones with a problem!

    Lying is only social grease when everybody is a self-involved greedy fuck.

    It always helps to be on the same plane of reality at the same level of detail to communicate with people.

    Soap and being clean doesn't have much to do with BO.

    Most BO comes from all the crap people consume.

    Eat cleanly and you won't smell, unless you build up sweat colonies. Being forced to not use deodorant/anti-perspirant/colognes sure taught me quickly what foods were good for me.

    Nobody except its users gave a shit about it before and whether the users are still there has nothing to do with FB, since FB didn't change anything!

    It's the perfect point because we want them to have the resources and we want them to still have their independence. Does everybody really think FB is so dumb that they'd all of a sudden get Michael start working on social code instead of getting a working hardware/software interface?

    The US is a funny place. They admire rich people but then they always assume that they are smarter than the rich person and feel that they, sans billion dollar company, actually have some useful insight. Yet the reason they get all upset is that they aren't that intelligent and they can only see one outcome, and given their brain it's usually something as stupid as they would do.

    If most people knew* how their brains worked they'd keep their mouth shut a lot more.

    *Of course, some of our brains are so defective that even if you wanted to (say to avoid juvenile USian science fanboi mod bombing), you can't keep your mouth shut!

    um, programming is based on math, not reality.

    YOU should never be a programmer if you can't understand having multiple views on a single dataset.

    Why hint? I like to cultivate the habit of thinking in others.

    Wait till I'm finished before any thanks.

    I was incapable of understanding procedural programming languages, nor could I understand how most people 'did' math. My brain does not work like others, so what I've designed isn't like anything out there (actually, bit's and pieces of the design have started popping up, because hey, eventually the collective force of the world must be able to have 'invented' the same thing as little ol me) and it might not be comprehensible for most people. Except maybe lispers... and everybody knows they aren't normal!

    Truly, it's not even a development environment, it's an organizational tool for life based on life, hence it's name Life/Live.

    Hopefully a stable enough core will be out in the next 3-6 months that everybody else can finish the development. I'm extremely lazy like that :)

    Facebook is facebook.

    Lot's of people got their panties in a bunch over instagram and what happened there?

    Maybe, just maybe, facebook isn't a bunch of idiots and they allow the businesseseseses''s's(that should cover it, fucking english) they acquire to act like the independent businesses that they are. It's almost like people don't understand the whole diversifying-your-portfolio thing.
