The film _Brazil_ escaped from its script.

It is taking over the world.

That is the exact opposite experience in my part of the world. The local post offices have become fiefdoms.

I could not find any accountability without having to go through Amazon. And the USPS claims poverty with what's left of their 5 billion dollars surplus still sitting in their pension fund.

I wonder how this reflects on the corporate-state relationship between USPS and Amazon?

Did anyone else use zope? Add an object db to this and it strongly reminds me of zope.

Why do US Americans always skip right past the live-fire reality of the Vietnam War?

I feel no ethical dilemma in dumping ads.

These are ads paid for by corporations that regularly screw people with the "sorry, I have shareholders to answer to" line.

I have my life to answer to, and it is limited. I owe zero to your cdn.

As of 2013 only 17.8% US adults smoked.

What is this article on about?

It is speeding up with digital storage.

Who knows what those Zip drives has on them?

The point is that access to good decision making requires having access to food, warm shelter, community, and all of those to be in steady supply.

Without those a person in a meritocracy where the poor "deserve" to be without ... that person will spend money on things that make them think they are living better not regarding what make sense to someone comfortable.

But I guess maybe you have never been homeless. Or without food or a place to shit.

A new boom for Seattle's burgeoning artisan tiny lute makers economy.

Affordable housing persons maybe can't afford most of the furniture in those interior photographs.

The English show "The Supersizer" did a great take on the Victorian diet. Too bad that it is not on their youtube channel because it is on many other youtube channels.

Why is conflating these two issues defending the other side?

I see a blue dot for University of Washington, but I see no star for Joint Base Lewis-McChord, the Bremerton Naval shipyards (one of the last two functioning belonging to the US), and of course Naval Base Kitsap.

But Vice did not see fit to include a military hub star for the Salish Sea.

Which phase would you call this?

That is quite a disclosure on the influence the author had on the business.

Your second claim is completely anecdotal.

And When did companies stop outsourcing, and why are you using quotes over outsourcing?

> which is supposed to be available only to the FBI and other law enforcement agencies around the country.

I think that a group one million possibly armed users with access to a secret shared database and private IM client shouldn't be reduced by by the adverb "only".

Now that is an industry ripe for disruption.

Do you know that you have a banana in your ear?

Is this one of those glass cliffs?

It is weird how corporate success demeans those at the bottom. I mean ... you've just exposed "the great exposure" fallacy.

"Work hard enough and we will start to include the carrot."

Do trolls say that they have no evidence for statistics ... then use them anyways?

much less "bitenuker" which is highly offensive to those who speak either French or Dutch.

Although in your world that might feel like an app that everyone would use ... most of us go to a job in the same city in the same location day after day.

The problem may be that those apps are actually aimed at such a small portion of the earth's population (read: frequent business travelers) that maybe it is not sustainable.

It doesn't take that long for people to become frustrated at a lack of services they depend day to day on thoughtlessly. Also energy delivery systems that traverse state lines are not a city tramway.

Did anyone here benefit from a No Child Left Behind program?

The thing is ... at companies that I was the bane of because of my lack of technological ability past lithic ... every one made fum of me working 10 hours at work and two or three at home at night and the weekends.

So now ... Amazon has created a culture where everyone feels like the guy that no one wants to work with ... they have found a way to make that exploitable among some pretty smart people.

And everyone looks around and lifts their shoulders and shows their palms because the US work experience sucks.

Amazon reads like the zenith of the suck.

It is not the context, but that context could help explain the lack of R&D at those segments.
