I feel that's a line taken from Foundation by Asimov, describing the fall of the galactic empire

Because not everywhere works exactly like the US? Besides the point, if you work at a McDonald's, they are not going to give you a phone so you can text your manager. If you don't have a means of communication you are not getting the job.

The only SMS I've gotten in the last 5 years are the double authentication ones. WhatsApp is the default way of texting in many countries. Outside of the US, when you ask people to stop using WhatsApp, chances are you are asking them to give up texting entirely. Which you must realize is complicated to say the least

Almost all jobs in which you have to interact with people, so most of them. I work in an office and i need it to communicate with clients, with my boss or coworkers, or with a government agency. You have to understand that WhatsApp is ubiquitous outside of the US. Here we never got free SMS, so WhatsApp became the default way of texting. Even people on iphones use WhatsApp here

When everybody uses WhatsApp to communicate, which is a meta service, it's a bit complicated to cut off communication with literally everybody in your country (work, friends, businesses) just to not use a service. It's disingenuous to expect this without some sort of change within the current status quo. And this is coming from someone who doesn't use any of their other platforms but has to use WhatsApp, because that's literally the only choice

I've been playing the AC franchise lately, and I can't help it but think how cool would be one set during the bronze age collapse. They could even tie it together with origins and odyssey.

I agree with you, but let's try to not treat massive organizations as a single being. I'm sure even there some people were not ok with how pervasive Russian talking points were there. But then again, maybe I'm being naive.

I love this! Using screens we display 3D environments on a 2D surface. This is displaying a 3D environment on a 3D projection. I wonder how would you go about displaying a 4D environment in this 3D projection. The difference in dimensions would be akin to our conventional 3D in 2D setup, so I'd be intrigued in the comparisons we could draw from projecting 4D in 3D.

Infallible logic. Have you considered becoming president?

What he is trying to say is: is that due to a loss of neuroplasticity or is it more along the line of older children and adults learning a second language usually aren't deep in the same level of immersion. I agree with him that it's probably somewhere in the middle

Amazing game!! If you like the genre, you should play this

Was thinking exactly the same thing lol
