mumbi··on Summon the NSA
I'm not about to hit that button, but let me know if it works.
mumbi··on Implementing "Prism Break"
"I'm not sure why he's switching from Google search to Duck Duck Go if he's concerned about privacy."

Obviously you're not up-to-date.

mumbi··on The world is socialist
I like the part about how nobody is great.
mumbi··on I wish I didn't know
Yeah, I know, I have a pretty high tolerance. Thanks for the suggestions, though, I will work on it. As for shrinks, I don't particularly trust them :/, but I will look into it.

Thanks for replying, I appreciate it.

mumbi··on This link will disappear after 365 views
Didn't last long. Interesting experiment.
mumbi··on How To Be a Software Developer Without a CS Degree
Easy. Prove you know how to develop software. I've never had anyone ask about my degree(which doesn't exist).
mumbi··on Servers of Hacker News
I would be curious to see the percentage that doesn't allow that information to be retrieved, if that's a possibility.
mumbi··on Why does Amazon have more books from the 1880s than the 1980s? Blame copyright
At least we can take solace in the fact that Amazon sells more quality content than not.
mumbi··on 1984 Day - Rally Against Surveillance
Very true and I commend those who continue to inform others. It seems when I try to talk about it though, too many(all) won't listen, so I've given up. I'm sorry.
mumbi··on 1984 Day - Rally Against Surveillance
Sucks that the vast majority of Americans don't give a shit.
mumbi··on The risks of someone calling you smart and how to avoid them
Then there is the question that has to be asked: is it negative to have your intelligence underestimated or can you use that belief to your benefit?
mumbi··on The risks of someone calling you smart and how to avoid them
Yes, read this book. Very important if you want to learn about people.
mumbi··on The risks of someone calling you smart and how to avoid them
Deal with people.
mumbi··on The risks of someone calling you smart and how to avoid them
Just because you're smart or talented doesn't mean you're not naive. Investors like naivety, just like record labels like naivety.

mumbi··on Existential Depression in Gifted Children
I remember thinking these 'existential' thoughts that cause depression my first day of pre-school. I am not as intelligent as a lot of people, but I know that I'm not unintelligent. I began failing my classes in school when I was 9, and my depression was beginning to really develop. I would walk around the playground, by myself, thinking. By 15, I had renounced my belief in God and refused to be brainwashed by anyone who wanted to tell me otherwise.

I'm 25 now and after a lot of drugs and alcohol, I believe in God, again. I read the Bible, not as often as I should, but at least I read it. It makes me feel better.

For those of you who are 'former Christians', I recommend you try to bring it back into your life. It does help, I promise.

mumbi··on Making the web fun again
Great idea. I've never been so bummed out as when I found out Geocities was dying.
