<p>thanks - I tried ViturePro when the came out, but felt like I was seeing monitors wearing blinders/through a slit, that wasn't quite big enough to see the whole screen.<p>Can you fully see the 3 monitors you're using there, And are you on mac or on windows? ie can you see kind of 1.5 monitors at a time, the middle one, and .5 of oneish?</p>

<p>for sure - it is inevitable, if you live in modern society. This is a past tense discussion, as it's already happening, even as I type this msg in reddit of course. The only way out is to leave and live in the woods pretty much, but that doesn't stop it, it only delays the engagement.</p>

<p>Agree - basically tech that can see what people do, is creepy.
and as you suggest - others can engage, but we don't control that.<p>Currently, it's somewhat obvious, but what happens when the tech is totally invisible?<p>That day is coming very soon, within a decade, max, and you have to imagine every thing you ever do, in any place - even in the dark, is recorded.<p>Arthur C Clarke, and Stephen Baxter wrote a book about this
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Light_of_Other_Days" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Light_of_Other_Days</a><p>Well worth reading, imho, but it does explicitely ignore the concept of a higher presence, which is noteworthy</p>

<p>Your commments are great, and made me lol, which is super rare - great insight, honestly... thanks<p>But if you've never had kids, you're missing out on so much. This is just my experience, and is how I "grew up" from 20-35. I didn't want kids, but now love them so much, and as 55 year old man, with a 21 and 20 year old that still live with me, I'm doing so well, and have been blessed by them being in my life, and my wife who wanted kids more than I did, lol.<p>I know you are probably aware of this, and it probably tears at you, in some way. I know it did for me. And your mission, if you choose to accept it is not to live life on your own terms, but on the terms of God (imho), your health, your wife, your kids (if you choose to have them), and ultimately in others, which once you perfect the previous, you will want to help others more than anyone else.<p>Not everyone has to have children of course, and in many ways it'd be easier if you didn't, but it sounds to me like your seeking new paths, and this is a life changer, imho, and something that every generation before you did, to have you, and bring YOU to life.<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>cool to hear - I have existing rooms that I replaced hollow core doors with solid core doors, but it didn't help much. I thought I would have to rip off gyprock to add better sound insulation, but maybe just adding another layer might help...<p>I assume it would only have to be on walls adjacent to other rooms, ie not exterior walls? And how did you really know this worked? Did you ever live in a room like that, or try this on someone who reported it helped back to you in some fashion? Thanks for the idea :D !</p>

<p>The best thing anyone can do with tables is make it so people use tables
Not "divs" - tables, can be parsed, and exported to other data formats easily, and are easy to recognize, without visualization.<p>Many websites build tables out of div's, and they may look like tables, but they are hard to manipulate/export data from.<p>If a table is on a website, I feel it should be easy to export it as csv, at the least, to "free the data" :D</p>
