@clearpathtofollw I am a straight woman, so I don't see how it's gay, and it is a practical observation, I bet his load is delicious, with all the natural raw juice and fruits and veggies he eats, and water, I bet it is super clean and fresh. An enjoyable out come for any lady who gets to go down on him.

i would support you on this. barring that, though, this whole thread is rife for TV series treatment. like "party down" but, you know, a couple of guys who go around to different offices to give motivational seminars.

http://thenewinquiry.com/essays/against-ted/

At TED, “everyone is Steve Jobs” and every idea is treated like an iPad. The conferences have come to resemble religious meetings and the Ted talks techno-spiritual sermons, pushing an evangelical, cultish attitude toward “the new ideas that will change the world.” Everything becomes “magical” and “inspirational.” In just the top-ten most-viewed TED talks, we get the messages of “inspiration,” “astonishment,” “insight,” “mathmagic” and the “thrilling potential of SixthSense technology”! ...

There are consequences to having this style of discourse dominate how technology’s role in society is understood. Where are the voices critical of corporatism? Where is there space to reach larger publics without having to take on the role of a salesperson, preacher, or self-help guru?

Mordy, Sunday, 19 February 2012 17:54 (twelve years ago) link

do we have a TED thread? (no thread police)

TED: Ideas Worth Spreading

horseshoe, Sunday, 19 February 2012 20:22 (twelve years ago) link

What’s infuriating is how Silicon Valley capitalism consistently attempts to sell itself as outside or even above corporatism. In announcing Facebook’s IPO, Mark Zuckerberg, whose company has consistently violated user privacy in the name of profit, stated that “we don’t build services to make money.”

loving the idea that it was the zone of fake-o internet pyramid marketing that just suddenly changed in 2008 and they had to adapt. like how bad can your tunnel vision about the world possibly be.
