let's just not have doctors

Why not? Bunch of liberal elites anyway. Probably Jewish or turning kids trans or something too.

Instead, for a small monthly donation, Pastor Jim can write you a prescription for Jesus! If that doesn't work, you were a sinner anyway and God wanted you dead. Perfect system, praise be, onwards to greatness America! /S

Is a timber frame house from back then the same as one built post 1950 though? Some Q's:

  • Have materials/practices decreased in quality?
  • Has there been a shift from a sense of pride in craft and duty to build well towards cutting corners and saving $?
  • Has the density and properties of wood changed as we use smaller trees grown more quickly in monocultures compared to old-growth harvested lumber of pre 1900s?

Bernie would have taxed and regulated the media and it's owners. The coverage disparity is intentional.

Lots of reasons to be looking at the framework Canada just published for consumer-driven (open) banking, but I thought this was a gem:

from "2.10 A Single Technical Standard"

...The Framework will significantly decrease the risks of personal data being compromised by bad actors and mitigate security, privacy, and liability risks for consumers and participants. This is achieved through the use of APIs, a type of software that acts as secure data “pipes” to enable different products and services to communicate in a consistent manner.

If an API is a pipe, is the Internet a series of tubes?

Technology, for better or worse, affects every aspect of our lives. Our very sense of who we are is shaped and reshaped by the tools we have at our disposal.

The problem, for Stiegler, is that when we pay too much attention to our tools, rather than how they are developed and deployed, we fail to understand our reality. We become trapped, merely describing the technological world on its own terms and making it even harder to untangle the effects of digital technologies and our everyday experiences.

By encouraging us to pay closer attention to this world-making capacity, with its potential to harm and heal, Stiegler is showing us what else is possible.

At the upcoming SXSW Conference... Honda will give attendees a chance to try out a new mobility device... specifically designed for mixed reality entertainment experiences.

Users can steer... without the use of their hands — they simply have to lean into one direction to move forwards, backwards, sideways or diagonally.

MOSCOW, Feb 26 (Reuters) - Russian businessman Yury Antipov was questioned by police on Monday in a fraud case connected to the alleged illegal privatisation of metals assets...

TASS had earlier said that Antipov had been detained on fraud charges...

The move comes after Russian news agencies reported that a regional arbitration court in Sverdlovsk had ruled in favour of prosecutors seeking to nationalise three assets important to the defence industry that they said had been illegally privatised in the 1990s.
