The critically panned Magic Leap... what sort of wealthy and unaccountable idiot would put their money into a risky venture like this? Ah yes, the military of course.
The people who need shorter days, ie the ones whose bodies wear out, are the ones who will keep doing six day weeks.
A lot of us, even surgeons, would certainly not do more in 75% of the time!
Software is gradually replacing human knowledge - eg a driver with GPS has a measurably smaller area of the brain than a map-reader.
This is even more true in business, where a person is more likely to be a 'computer operator' than actually have a grasp of the fundamental principles.
Is there any point knowing something deeply when a two minute Google will yield the same answer?!
I would broadly agree with this comment but using Apple products after years of Windows/Dos really blew my mind!
Sometimes things should 'just work' - even though a masochistic mindset is a badge of honour in IT.
Seen the film Idiocracy?
Thing is, when you're smart you start to look at implications of decisions. By any measure, having kids is not a solid investment and will likely impact your career and life choices considerably... if you're going to do it you may as well wait until career is off the ground and enjoyed some travelling, partying, multiple partners...
If you're not smart you have kids in your teens and let someone else pay for it.
Not sure of the quality of the submission but I agree with the premise!
It's a social network but lacking the social side as far as I can tell.
Maybe I'm just not using it right but I have no idea how people would... It seems to be useful only for recruitment agencies who get access to profiles that are not just stuffed with keywords but might even have endorsements from peers as well.
So yeah, I'm using it wrong because I'm not constantly marketing myself and networking!
As a somewhat introverted person I notice that four is about the number of participants whereby a conversation starts to turn into a queue of people waiting to chip in an anecdote rather than having a genuine back-and-forth discussion.
I'd go with three as the ideal, for anything!
The most memorable use in film for me is The Running Man, where an autocracy implementing barbaric (and corrupt) punishments attempts to create footage showing our hero meeting his end.
For a slice of 80's schlock it's actually a pretty decent guess at the future!
I hope that when they sequence all these critters they take the time for quality documentation! Would be very annoying for future generations/aliens if they manage to create the first example, only to find out they don't have any food!
All those idiots buying at Christmas time could have bought a new convertible for the price of one bitcoin and then sold it for about the same price as a bitcoin today!
All those lovely tax dollars rolling in and the wonderful side effect of mainly poorer people dying earlier, before they become a burden on the state!
No wonder govts have never banned cigarettes!
A phone call takes more time and more effort than a text. It would be impossible to have contact with a wide group without some sort of asynchronous communication.
Plus people rarely have downtime now - they are constantly doing stuff, even if that is Netflix.
At least Hockey is a fun team sport that brings entertainment.
Having a meaningful success will mean a lot in 30 years... more than most of our futile lives!
I have literally tens of IG followers and I know the pressure of keeping those likes flowing.
One of my kids was consistently getting low ratings on Instagram so I was forced to drop his content, in favour of one of his siblings.
If backwards folk lie to other backwards folk and provoke a murder then I know where I'm apportioning blame and it certainly isn't the telephone/letter/telegram/radio/WhatsApp.
What does the headline even mean?
A business quantifies things by ROI... developers should be no different than any other asset.
Maybe they just need to work out what the 'R' means.

The only people to do well are the AI owners but what makes you think things will get that far? People won't sit idly as jobs disappear.

Mid-90s a dark period? Most of the iconic games were made in that period!

Wouldn't worn down plastic end up in gutters, and from there into watercourses... and finally the sea?
On an unrelated note, police are trying to track the parents of a young girl seen in the area but believed to be a runaway. Around 11 years old.

Abort, penetration, hard/floppy, coupling, male/female, motherboard and even parent are loaded with potential to offend.
Or why not just produce good art and sell that?!

Cut off the EU from Google. As though anybody wants to see French cinema anyway!

I have no points to upvote you but I commend you for use of the word 'nads'!
Can't see any way that this could abused!
