Mark Zuckerberg on the next 10 years of Facebook

I don't know where people get the idea that "flying cars" is a more noble achievement than "140 characters".

All these narratives you're repeating--you probably picked it up from some news article or tweet--is just another way people package their own agenda. What you're saying is equivalent to saying police is much more important than scientists. The truth is both are important and it's foolish to say one is more important than another.

Basically you're comparing apples to oranges and saying oranges are bad because the guy who sells apples started a well packaged propaganda to sell more apple and you believe it word for word.

I can't even imagine where anyone would get the idea that saving lives and the environment is more noble than 140 characters. Hard to fathom.

Strange to equate 140 characters to "scientists," but what do I know.

The HN crowd tends toward anti-socialites who don't see the value in human communication or that purpose of life is to live it.

What's the point of going to Mars, if not to share the experience with other people?
