Although valid questions were asked (http://gizmodo.com/the-giant-list-of-shit-mark-zuckerberg-swears-hell-get-1825189623) all the reports of Zuck being “grilled” by lawmakers now seem exaggerated. Members of Congress actually grilled themselves by showing incompetence. Once would have been enough but they did it many times.

I was hoping that Facebook would be put in its place but something different happened: Lawmakers showed how out-of-the-loop and unfit to regulate they are.

“I just think you ought to be a little careful about expecting policy makers to have personal and deep expertise in each of the areas that they make policy in.” -Senator Schatz. This is concerning.

I still think Facebook needs to be fixed or abandoned.

Love this but webgen and txtgen more than just millenials should get credits. Also, my prediction is that this trend will not last as we move back to verbal mode with the upcoming voice-control tsunami which will undoubtedly develop its own language mutation.

I’m personally witnessing the Cantonesation or Chinesation of English through removal of many words to express oneself in specific contexts. For instance “can” is an efficient way to fully answer a question although westerners might need the lag or breathing-room that the many-word answer provides to compute and reflect on the next step in the conversation.

It is my observation too that BTC has been leading market movements although other commentators have refuted that theory earlier this year.
