Being forced to adopt others beliefs about diversity as their own is the definition of hegemony. You're taking part in making sure they have the "right" beliefs about business stru…

This type of social control is so bizarre to me. Like, here's a literal script for you to read from if you'd like us to stop attacking you in the future.

That's great for solving known problems, like maybe Coke could estimate that reducing turbulence in their pipes in Warehouse ABC would save them a half million dollars a year. Then…

I have a hard time seeing taxation as always theft. In a democratic society the public either is or was part of the decision on whether or not to fund things like the LHC. If socie…

If facebook is just now announcing their upgrade should we expect these prices to go down ?

Since KE = (1/2)mv^2 we can just do the math. Say m=2 so we're just left looking at the v^2 terms: 120^2 - 96^2 >? 24^2 - 0^2 5184 >? 576 So yes, the KE difference between 120 and …

Well I stand corrected, thank you. I found this really cool map that agrees with you, even if I kind of wish it had names of particular schools along the arrows. https://upload.wik…

Wow. Dorje Chang, Fa Zang's teacher, claims that he's the 3rd incarnation of the historical Buddha, the one that Buddhism is based on. But this Dorje Chang lineage isn't a lineage …
