I haven't read anything by Windschuttle. But Charles Clark famously declared that he was pushing "my kind of history", which was a poetic and spitually uplifting narrative in his opinion. Shortly before his death, he gave a

Few things are more inhumane, abhorrent, vile, digusting, and sickening as war. Yet every ISP permits news businesses to spread content about, and even promote, wars. Clearly they do not actually object to "offensive" content, b

Personal preference: Don't outsource recruitment to HR people. Team leaders should do the recruiting. HR people have no idea what is required, and don't know about any of the technical stuff. The team leaders know what is requir

News has always been fake. The earliest centralised news was local kings, lords, whatever, instructing the town crier or scribe what to tell the people. You'd be nuts to think it had anything to do with facts. As civilisation develope

Where I used to work, IT staff were treated like garbage. The HR folks and project managers all got huge pay increases, while the increases for tech staff was always less than the increase in cost of living. So I left, started contracting

Only geographically related, but Sejong Village Food Street is awesome. Note about mentions of the Higgs discovery: The Higgs boson was not observed. Never has been. Rather, an effect predicted to be caused by the Higgs boson was observed.

Consider something like a town/region hospital. Don't want to fund it? Don't. Want treatment? Cough up the cash. At the moment, here in Australia, the government does the middle man thing, and money is just blown on crap

Peer review is also not part of the scientific method. It's nice, but it's not strictly part of the method. It may be more accurate to suggest that repeatability is part of the scientific method. But even that is not strictly tr
