"You can't out run a bad diet".

Exercise helps, but once you do the math and see how many calories hard exercise consumes vs how easy it is to eat more calories, it becomes very clear.

What's interesting is some people recognized the oncoming issues in the 60's! Robert Persig notes it, albeit somewhat obliquely, in his book "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance".

We need to see some new educational competitors out there. When you can get the education for a fraction of what these government-secured organizations charge, then we'll see change.

Good points/explanation about the fragmentation breaking the communication.

Hmm, not sure if we can take any active position toward "fixing", since it's really hard to predict the outcome of our actions. Perhaps this is something that will continue to mature as communities coalesce.

I think I'd still like the ability to build my own in-app filters that aggregate communities. Like you'd do with a podcast app. Then at least (for an individual) you'd see all the posts that you consider related in a single feed/folder/view.

It's definitely not a simple problem.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Oh crap, you already done lost me in the second half there, but I'll give the link a watch.

Thanks again!

Yawn.
