That’s ridiculous. Network effects are more powerful than direct donations. If he’s donating AND trying to get others involved, then great. 

But that’s not Mr. Beasts job. He’s a web celebrity doing a pretty good thing, and the chattering/blog class has nothing to contribute but to critique every good thing that doesn’t meet their standard of good enough. Person raising millions to make a pretty good impact = better than person sideswiping them for not…

..... Don’t worry. We won’t. 

So.... don’t take the scholarship.

Google has a weird habit of killing things that are -just- on the edge of being great and needing some more work. I’m worried they’ll kill Keep next, even though they could make it explode in popularity just by adding something like Kanban columns (which would take maybe two weeks of developer time).

I’m looking forward to the day when we all kind of collectively realize that twitter, while fun, actually has an incredibly negative effect on our society, civil discourse, and our attention spans. For every minor convenience it creates, it also drives perverse incentives among our media figures. 

One of the more plausible theories I have heard, given the wide and weird descriptions that some survivors had in describing the beast, is that it was a large bear with mange. Mange, which can cause animals to lose their hair, reveals the truly weird actual form of bears. If you haven’t seen a hairless bear before,…

Yeah, desire based market forces NEVER drive technological developments that later benefit society by financing advancement in an industry.

Never let facts get in the way of a desire to believe something. 

How do you know what I believe? I only read hear what you are telling me I believe. 

You realize that the promise of intellectual property profits is basically the reason we even have the vaccine, right?
