  • I like the idea behind this but how do you promote your analog life on TikTok without also using tech at the same time

  • For me, the house I'm in was built in 1912 but it's still holding strong. My parents have me beat though, they got the original governor of south carolina's front doors which were from somewhere in the late 1700s

  • CVS Is Turning Locked Shelves Into an Excuse to Make You Download Its App

  • Let’s go one step further and make them a gig worker so CVS doesn’t have to pay them for downtime and instead we get to tip

  • Spanish PM calls to end social media anonymity, force digital ID

  • Assuming the company running the service and doing the verification is acting in good faith (big leap here, I get it) couldn’t you verify an identity, store a piece of static information about that person (DL, SSN even tho that sucks) in a hash so that no one else could use that identity to create an account and then issue an account ID with no link to identity marker?

    This would allow you to verify users, prevent people from using an ID that was already used, prevent you from being able to link an account to an identity, and prevent you from being able to easily return a list of everyone identified on the service. Best you could do is respond to an individual query on whether that person has verified with your service.

    I think it could work technically, but I agree that in practice the US would use its power to make you conduct surveillance without alerting customers, or maybe enact some KYC type requirements for internet usage. This would likely be a first or skipped step on the way to that.

  • Large Majority of Americans Want to End Electoral College

  • That’s interesting. Do you know which states haven’t yet joined/would be the most likely to flip to get to the total?

  • Large Majority of Americans Want to End Electoral College

    Jump

  • Yea you’re right. I just thought it was funny that a majority of Americans disprove of something that prevents a majority of Americans from being able to choose something

  • That’s great but do an electoral college majority want to end the electoral college?

  • Health management platforms have to be the biggest waste of money I've ever seen

    Jump

  • I’m a developer at the biggest one of these systems in America. It is stupid expensive. But we support full electronic patient communication. And most of our competitors do too. I’m sorry you’re stuck with one of the few who doesn’t have that option or are choosing not to use it.

    Hopefully they come around in the next decade!
