Internet users are hunting down and punishing people who have attracted their wrath.

by Bill Quigley It is time for a revolution. Government does not work for regular people. It appears to work quite well for big corporations, banks, insurance companies, military contractors, lobbyists, and for the rich and powerful. But it does not work for people. The 1776 Declaration of Independence stated that when a long train of abuses by those in power evidence a design to reduce the ...

"(...) So what's the point? It's a culture. Call it the algorithmic culture. To get it, you need to be part of it, you need to come out of it. Otherwise, you spend the rest of your life dancing to the tune of other people's code. Just look at Europe where the idea of competition in the Internet space appears to focus on litigation, legislation, regulation, and criminalization." - John Brockman ...

Interesting news from Russia in English language.

e see the world evolving into a complete peer-to-peer system, beyond just communications but in finance and eventually energy as well. This means that the ability for individuals to transact with each other, at the mass-micro level, will transform how we value our sense of worth and of selves. The explosion in virtual and digital communities is driving this, and layered over existing ...

When the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change issue its last report in 2007, environmental tipping points were a footnote. A troubling footnote, to be sure, but the science was relatively new and unsettled. Straightforward global warming was enough to worry about. But when the IPCC meets in 2014, tipping points — or tipping elements, in academic vernacular — will get much more attention. ...

A woman listens to Barack Obama's speech at the Copenhagen climate change conference on 18 December. Photograph: Axel Schmidt/AFP/Getty Images Copenhagen was a disaster. That much is agreed.

The truth is this: China <http://www.guardian.co.uk/world...> wrecked the talks, ...

"(...) personal identity involves more than just a sense of individual uniqueness. It is also heavily bound up with our shared membership of different social groups: nationality, ethnicity, kinship, class, occupation, political affiliation, star sign and many other social categories may all loom large in the ways we think about identity. Such collective identities are as much a part of social ...

The newest RepRap, RepRap Version II "Mendel", will be released very shortly. It is both bigger and smaller than RepRap Version I "Darwin": it can make bigger things, but the machine itself is physically much smaller. It is genuinely a desktop portable 3D printer - you can carry it in one hand. It's also a lot easier to put together than RepRap Version I "Darwin". All of Mendel's printed parts ...

When surveying the goals of transhumanists, I found it striking how heavily many of them favor conventional engineering. This seems inefficient and inelegant, since such engineering reproduces slowly, clumsily and imperfectly, what biological systems have fine-tuned for eons, from nanobots (enzymes and miRNAs) to virtual reality (lucid dreaming). (...) And it came to me in a flash that many ...

Scientists give many reasons not to worry about predictions based on the Mayan calendar that the world will end in three years. ################ There are hundreds of books devoted to 2012, and millions of Web sites, depending on what combination of "2012" and "doomsday" you type into Google. All of it, astronomers say, is bunk. "Most of what's claimed for 2012 relies on wishful thinking, wild ...

High oil prices are good for U.S. culture Fluctuating gas prices haven't caused too much change in the way we view energy. But if gas prices rise to $6, $10, or $12 per gallon, author Chris Steiner says the effects would change everything from the way we drive to how we shop. TEXT OF INTERVIEW Kai Ryssdal: Oil prices rose today. Crude inched closer to $65 a barrel. That price bumps around ...
