It’s other newspapers and online entities such as this. In this case I am sure the company suffered financially, they should be able to pressure the NYT to retract the story, they have some muscle with the google ties.

Interestingly I just had an unrelated discussion on goodreads about that. The first mentioned author of the NYT article is supposedly a cybersecurity expert. The article lacked any evidence and called the company russian and obscure, they edited that but it’s still on archive.org

I left a goodreads comment on the NYT authors latest cybersecurity book calling her knowledge and practice in question. How can article like this stand, if it cannot be backed up, bad journalism and a lack understanding of the matter?

I agree, I spotted some words that were in use before 95 as well, like Antifa for example, but it’s his list of words, not an official one. It could be useful and simple practice for people to engage in.

How would querying the data work? Will a pod provide querying capabilities as well? Example use case would be finding all pictures around a certain location. It "seems" unavoidable that certain data still has to be at a service provider since they enrich the original data. How would that work?

It was Wittgenstein who said that you think on paper when you write on it with a pen. The paper and the papers nature become an extension of yourself through the pen. It's the same with everything else.

Her grandson Daniel Immerwahr mentions her in his superb book on the empire building of the USA. She and her husband are mentioned in the chapter on the Guano Islands Act https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guano_Islands_Act.

Drowned world is a psychological treatise that explores the impact of an environmental crisis on our dreams. One of my all time favorites.

Bruce Sterling has been around in the intersection of art and technology since the dawn of the internet. His gothic, villain, medival high tech scifi world are a hilarious inspiration.

This 2015 story did already sent the wrong message, blatantly ripping off other people in the industry.

I only caught that while running by for a brisk morning jog. I didn’t pay much attention to the source.

Captured those reflections on the building this morning, they look like a puzzle.

I just got an email today from the O'Reilly news letter.

Subject: 'How’d you weather the dot-com bust?'

Maybe they should focus on how to weather the climate bust.

What the original blog post was referring were article length pieces of content that mix interactive and static elements to tell a story. The pollbludger has interesting data but it's not giving enough analysis or insights into selection you can pick from the selection.

Couldn't that be a computer generated voice?

I agree with the article in general when it comes to NLP, AI and the dull hype machine. But in certain domains well understood usage patterns in conversational interfaces have advantages over custom UI's. Conversational interfaces with micro UX elements, maps buttons images selectors ..., rather then text input. They advantage is a universal timeline. Be it booking a table in restaurant, ordering a car, searching for an article, all conversational interface allow you to go back in time in a uniform well understood way. By scrolling back. Also your interaction history is searchable. No need to introduce a new UX element for that.

Read the 'Drowned World' by J.G. Ballard, humans start having ancient dreams.

'Just as psychoanalysis reconstructs the original traumatic situation in order to release the repressed material, so we are now being plunged back into the archaeopsychic past, uncovering the ancient taboos and drives that have been dormant for epochs… Each one of us is as old as the entire biological kingdom, and our bloodstreams are tributaries of the great sea of its total memory.

The Drowned World, J.G. Ballard, Millennium 1999, p. 41.

do you have a link describing a flow cell?

Its refreshing to see this is in a scripting language that works on any browser. Take it as inspiration and do something better.

This promo video makes me instantly uncomfortable.

This could be a heaven-sent for data exchange and knowledge structures. If data subjects are labeled with wikidata nouns it could much more interchangeable. RDF should have gone that route a long time ago.

I like the idea. This is useful to generate stubs.

Looks fantastic!

Samsung is a soul less copy cat. Of course I push any word of them below the fold.

chuckle is a good thing:)

Having a breadth of designs between generic and super special will relax the scene a bit, I am kind of freaked about our enforced gadget conformity. Lets get a little freaky!
