Plugins and Themes
GDPR…The most important thing to remember is that no theme or plugin can make you compliant with the new regulations. They may provide assistance in solving parts of it, but nothing more. In the end it is up to you as the site administrator, to ensure compliance with both national and international law.
GDPR
Now the first law of the internet is GDPR.
Maximum fines per violation are set at 4 percent of a company’s global turnover (or $20 million, whichever is larger).
That’s a lot more than the fines allowed by the Data Protection Directive, and it signals how serious the EU is taking data privacy.
Google and Facebook could withstand a fine like that (they have before), but it would be enough to sink a smaller firm.
WP…who? – org – com
The best way to think about the differences between WordPress.com vs WordPress.org is the analogy of renting a house vs. owning a house. Continue reading “WP…who? – org – com”

Tech is not exciting anymore. Tech doesn’t gives back pleasure anymore. Tech is hostile as the world around brought by the news.

Truth
Science as falsification
Empirical falsification is a philosophical position that a theory in the empirical sciences can never be proven, but it can be falsified, meaning that it can and should be scrutinized by decisive experiments.
If a scientific statement speaks about reality, it must be falsifiable. If it is not falsifiable, it does not speak about reality.

Remember, as humans we are just simple channels to enable the flow, the manifestation of higher living organisms and universal rules. We only have the option to open as many channels as possible inside ourselves and try to relax, enjoy the show.
About Synthetic Life
Western culture, in contrast with Eastern philosophy was always looking outside to find answers for life.
In history, during the evolution technology, the tools humans used to enhance their life was always the key factor making the difference.
Leaders of synthetic life research (together with all the other digerati) are already discussing
[…] how the world will be changed by the ability to routinely read genetic sequences into computing systems and then store, replicate, alter and insert them back into living cells.
This bi-directional interface between biological and synthetic life which is hosted in the digital universe will be the new sense transiting us to the new metasystem.
All these advancements presented above, at the rise of the singularity as the next metasystem transition — were done by humans using their brain capacity potential far from the maximum.
Easterners state, believe and prove through mind training — instead of focusing on technological advancements — the brain capacity can be used at maximum. In other words new senses can be developed alone by humans without building artificial universes and interfaces around.
With a fully opened mind one can sense and experience parallely existing universes. And (sometimes?) the effort to open your mind is less than building a new world.
So which pill you take? The West or the East? Clone yourself into digital or take a journey inside to a socratesian experience? Maybe both?
