IMO it is not a matter of 'what if', but 'when they'. Digital is the new world, the new weapon and the next stage of nearly everything in human evolution. It is simply terrifying to know what could be done if terrorism or warfare was conducted with bytes not bombs. Technologically speaking, we have gone well beyond the know how it would take to destroy the planet without old fashioned weapons of mass destruction. A massive EMP, an intentional spiking of the grid, false data injections... so many possible ways to bring the planet to its knees with the push of a button.... scary
About time someone rethought spreadsheets in modern technology. I[probably we] use them constantly but without an old fashioned interface, often needing massive scrolling & hot-keys, they are unmanageable after just a few columns and rows. I never even dare to use them on touch devices, would be amazing to actually have a portable functional style going forward.
Sounds like the new normal for twitter. I keep seeing 'get more real followers' ads all over these days. They promise 1000s of them all 'real' but I would be willing to bet, they are all bots.
This makes no sense, possibly the intentional faking to make him look bad does, but it still seems silly. No way a new poli account is going to come close to Obamas, the timing makes it near impossible. One is old and was benefited by the first round of suggested users, the other is near crippled by the now impossible. Not that I like politics but this is so odd to me for some reason it just strikes me as silly no matter how or why it is happening.
