I think what the poster was getting at is that finding a minimum is a negative way to view human health (what is the minimum amount of food a human needs to survive, what is the mi…

Why wouldn't it be a part of the education?

I've seen that sentiment shared a couple of times in the past day and little else before. Just something I've noticed... I find the self loathing is usually well qualified and not …

Thinking any one person is a 'thought leader' is, generally, a dumb thing to think. You grew up.

Even if not an explicit gift, isn't all OSS implicitly a gift? I'm having trouble understanding the practical difference.

Cultivating is a great word choice. It would fit in nicely in a Brave New World .

Worryingly revisionist to compare 1980s media advertising budgets to what's going on now (even if they were 'high' for the time).

I skimmed the important parts of the paper. This is akin to finding that cigarettes reduce stress. Any smoker/former smoker will tell you this is true (in the immediate sense). Doe…

Consistency of style in the general sense is what designers wish to avoid. Consistency of browser behaviour and default style, on the other hand, is the grail from which creativity…

That's the stench of continuous public cannabis use, which even as a cannabis user, I don't like. Unless you are smoking in your house, the stench does not last.

"Post drunk, delete sober" - said no one ever ever ever.

What kind of source of a man's life is a granddaughter? I am in my mid-thirties with 3 kids. Perhaps someday I'll have a granddaughter. It is unlikely that she will have a full pic…

Sure, I'll admit it was not a well thought out analogy. Regardless, we have the right to complain either way. Consent or not, we are all governed. There's no opting out of that.

I love George Carlin, I think he's one of the greatest comedians to have ever lived. You can't seriously believe take this as truth though, can you? If you vote you caused the prob…

Thank you for this wonderful comment. It really encapsulates my thoughts on the matter but I have been unable to express it so elegantly - even to myself. Drugs truly are unnecessa…

Listen to this wise being. Never try to motivate others into learning something you yourself are passionate about without the use of a good spell checker. Even then, you best make …
