What has all the fuss about the most pseudo scientist of the last decade to do with interesting news here? Is it only because he is -- very handicapped? Living in Europe, the scene…

Parallel Universes? Could anybody here please bring some credible experience from this field? You know, just like the Christians, who are able to report even daily experiences (see…

I would really be interested in his first experience after death... Will he be able to find a way to communicate to us? That would be really ingenious, because all of the rest is o…

You sure!!

Sexy sells? OK, but why stop there? You can get more and faster with a bank robbery. I don't understand you people.

Following all kinds of human intercommunication, I'd say that this percentage only reflects the equivalent of really important communication on the positive side, and trash twitter…

"Fail" is the wrong term. The sincere love between a "male" and a "female" human being (if I name them "man" and "woman", maybe you won't understand, would you?) isn't considered a…

It is the wrong question: There are lots of possible candidates for it, but communism ruined it all in China. Anyway, left are: 1) Africa (don't underestimate it, it could grow muc…

You got it all wrong: native English folks should be forbidden to vote on this comment. Anyway, believe me or not: you English ones are certainly the most ignorant in culture anywa…

The English language is certainly one of the most flexible ones, on the positive side, and one of loosest ones, on the negative side. In English, even the most stupid thoughts soun…

HN is slow lately because PG is a dreamer and too much tied to personal and insignificant taste details (which never combine with a greater user base): HN should have been written …

ECL (a mature, stable Lisp which compiles to C) uses it.

Time only needs a beginning, it doesn't need and end. Nobody can prove the Big Bang theory without-a-doubt: we only could rise theories against it, or bring facts against it, but i…

And how would you try to express something which is outside of our own possible experience? Sure, you could say "eternal present" or something; doesn't seem to sound much better...…

Never mind, I hate Haskell. And since I'm too lazy to learn it, I'll hate it maybe forever...

There is a theory that we only do exist because there is an entity outside of time which 'thinks' us continuously.

What the future will bring us: nobody knows, there has never been anything really similar in history... The causes are very simple to describe: our (temporary) so successful econom…

Sure, because all of technology and all of science don't really feed our soul: so, our souls grow thinner and thinner, and our heads feel more and more overweight. It's like eating…

Gmail is down? Now I'm not sure if up-vote or down-vote...

...will there be a life after Google? (...and will it be eternal?)

What american car industry needs is european or japanese or korean spirit. Any of the mentioned industries invested much more in development than the american one, which slept for …

A color has the color we see because it absorbs all the other colors and only reflects the seen one. So it's the same soup either way.

There is macroevolution (molecule-to-man theory) and microevolution (no increase in complexity and no new species). And then there is natural selection, which decreases the amount …

I have a dumb question: how can a theory stop?

The base of ten is the most natural one (if I remember well, we all have about 10 fingers), and it is the most important one. Remember that math is only of use if it can be applied…
