I ask a lot of questions to try to understand how people think.

  • I initially had some of these thoughts, reflection changed my mind a bit. I’m not trying to change yours, but I think some people will benefit from this.

    I am not much into art and most of it is lost on me, but the more I considered the feeling I had thinking about the restriction, the more I appreciated the fact that she can cause affects across without boundaries just by the stunt.

    This would probably be less cool if it wasn’t intended to be about a civil rights awareness thing. There’s a limit for me on how far you can go before the justification isn’t enough for the negative affects of the action, but I don’t think anyone will really be hurt by this exhibit.




  • When I first read it, the thought that came to mind was how stupid it is in this age to do anything that is restricted by gender when the rest of the world is trying to eliminate that.

    Once I read the part about the feelings, emotion, and experience the restriction brought was the actual art and not just the paintings, that’s when I thought it was clever. The definition of art seems to be ambiguous now, but I understand what she’s trying to to do and it’s still a clever in that it illicits an effect whether you wanted to visit the museum or not.

    I think people say they understand or empathize, but don’t really know what it means in a specific context until they experience it IMO.


  • Since someone else brought up superapps, do they seem like an initial attempt to get around the manufacturer’s app store lock-in?

    Super apps allow adding mini apps. Seems like an app store.

    The goog/apple app stores are already saturated by malware, I can’t imagine some mini app store would do better. Even if the big two did do a better job, how would they go about vetting all the code these super apps might have access to?

    I guess I’m too jaded, but it seems like just another malware loader you intentionally install.

    Am I being too hard on the concept? Are there any really good ones you’ve used?






  • So well said, up vote wasn’t enough.

    I attended three different institutions at various points of my life and still didn’t see some of the soft skills and basic business etiquette taught. I see young career people come into business with no idea how to attend meetings, answer phones, deal with expectations, etc. I’m not saying those can’t be learned on the job and added on top of an education that was meant to empower people to learn things on their own, but when they’re also tens of thousands in dept and can’t do basic professional tasks, makes me question what right looks like.
