		<description><![CDATA[According to Schumpeter, The Economist: Businesspeople need to reckon with the Anglosphere, the Sinosphere and the Indosphere. Reading a contract is useful, but you also need to be able to read people. I tend to agree on both accounts, these are useful thoughts for a business manager.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Automatically sharing user's every move on the Internet on their social media profile, to mean that that is what they care about, is plain dumb. This seems to be what Facebook and others are aiming to do. This surely makes it easy to stalk people, but it makes no sense when no human action isn't explicitly causing the sharing.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I read a well articulated blog posting by Hank Williams, in which he was arguing that comfort rather than racism may be motivating some of the industry movers in Silicon Valley. I think such observation is more general than he may have put it. I would argue that the senses of comfort (or discomfort) motivates most of the decisions people routinely make, and this all around the world.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Be lazy. Please. Reluctance to write code will make you a better developer, because you will end up writing only code that matters. Try to make your code easy for the next developer or the poor sod who will be using or maintaining your code. This poor sod may just be yourself, the next day, some weeks later, some months later, or some years later. If you are a beginner then by all means write "hello worlds" to your hearts content, in your learning environment. If you are really eager to learn, read code from more experienced developers and spend time debugging them.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Facebook is starting to confuse me now. Although the word friends doesn't mean the same on social media as in real life, I can't figure out how one would mix that with the concept of news in general. Friends are beings that one deem closer to oneself. But news would be exactly the opposite, they often feel distant. So I wonder if Facebook is trying to become more and more like Google, while at the same time actually, Google is trying to become more and more like Facebook.]]></description>
