Why it’s so easy to ignore your to-do list app but get distracted by Twitter

I’ve spent the past month in a daze, trying to make sense of my own tasks and responsibilities while forcing myself to adhere to a system I came up with that simply doesn’t work. You can never anticipate how your “perfectly designed” task-management system can fail. It’s our own nature — we’re so sure of ourselves — that makes us think our idea… Read More... →

The DeanBeat: How long will we have to wait before VR delivers our technology Renaissance?

My former boss, Jerry Ceppos, once said he worried that the San Jose Mercury News was covering the tech industry without enough scope or context, as if we would have covered the Italian Renaissance by measuring how many cans of paint were sold.

Here’s how we fix the Tay problem

GUEST: Microsoft’s intelligent chatbot Tay behaved badly last week (and this week too), but that shouldn’t have shocked any of us. Clearly, we’re expecting too much of AI too soon.
