I'm confused. IF a consciousness was housed in a black box (a brain, but we're ignoring it's internals) AND that black box had inputs connected to a computer that can send signals …

"Does the external world exist, as it so concretely seems?" I know this is not the direction of the paper (or question) but physics already gives us an astounding 'No!'.

They've gotten it a little bit bigger than a buckyball https://arxiv.org/abs/1310.8343 Also what's cool is that these things are visible under an electron microscope (so are buckyb…

I'm sure it gets used at dry water research meetings all the time.

No. By definition remembering an answer is not the same as doing. Additionally my experience tells me otherwise.

Additionally 9 * n = [n-1, 10-n] for n = 2-11; where n-1 is the digit in the 10's place and 10-n in the single place. This just an aesthetic curiosity. I know the pattern continues…

First and foremost it's unnecessary and is not fixing anything. Second, it forces learning a new layout and system. I don't understand instead of gradual changes in UI to improve e…

Memorizing multiplication tables is over rated. Seeing connections between those early multiples up to 12 is more interesting. Can be helpful I suppose in factorization. Maybe I ju…

Always good practice to rename 'bugs' and 'flaws' as 'features' and 'design'.

"This was the key. If you knew hhhhwwhy you didn’t have to memorize equations, or solve equations in the exact same way they did in the book..." I feel like this is a valuable less…

Honestly I think you make a good point and implicitly they could have used those resources instead to improve the user experience (for example, improve the sites efficiency and loa…

Cool. Maybe these guys should get in touch with the redesign guys and get them fired. Also fire any executive that thought it was a good idea. Because all the hard work to serve ad…

Apple is great for the privacy concerned

If you want to think even deeper, Romans had complex systems of bureaucracy as well yet clearly even less technology.
