Creatives, designers and developers get lost in granular details and get very little insight into the overarching corporate narrative. I agree with Yasha, knowledge superiority (and even resources) don't guarantee success. Life has too many variables that artificial cognition cannot fully comprehend, let alone simulate. 2018-02-27T21:03:43Z Comment by Ganymede station I think it's ignorant to say that Signal and Tor are pretty useless. Using Signal is much better than your standard SMS messaging if privacy is a concern. End to end encryption is pretty legit when it's done correctly. 2018-02-27T19:43:17Z Comment by Animalz cleanse society 2018-02-27T18:15:46Z Comment by eljee Proud to be a Patreon of this podcast, am about to go put even more cash in the monthly tip cup.

There could be communal spaces to provide that and more. 2018-02-26T02:07:06Z Comment by Rainbowbelt I agree with Yasha, computers are logical constructs they lend logical power to a high degree but do not function like we do in both emotional and logical aspects of interaction with the world 2018-02-26T01:57:56Z
