What is identity, what's soul, what does it mean to be human?

service announcement!
because chase roberts first book "computer engineering for babies" (the one with the pushbuttons, and the led, explaing logic gates and latch) is a big hit here at home: the guy is kickstarting the successor with switches and more leds! why dont you go over there and order one or two for yourself? while you are at it, you can add a copt of the original book, this is fantastic stuff to show off your nerdyness on the living room table while not alienating normal people (they love the books as well). here you go: kickstarter.com/projects/babye…

If the icons on your buttons are now white on a white background because you never did this, you made an app that I can't use
es ist so genial. überall auf der welt erlobbyen(?) sich verlegerverbände sowas wie das kaputte deutsche #Leistungsschutzrecht, und heulen dann rum, wenn plattformen halt keine previews für links mehr anzeigen. meine fresse, was für eine überraschung, in jedem land aufs neue. protip für die politiker unter euch: hört halt mal mehr auf die menschen, die sich mit diesem #neuland internet auskennen, bevor ihr euch scheissgesetze von der contentindustrie diktieren lasst?
liebs einfach wenn begriffe das gegenteil von dem bedeuten, was sie bedeuten:
rasanter anstieg
quantensprung

was gibts noch?
