Why do we keep repeating the line that he is "successful" and worth listening to? He has been at this for 25 years and nobody outside HN has ever heard of him. And no, being on the front page of HN does not make you successful. &g

The US became too prosperous, too fast. They're an example for other countries to learn from in their own development - emulate the good parts, avoid the bad. In Eastern Europe smart phones are just starting to become commonplace and p

I'm sorry to hear about the pain many of you suffer from. Please consider reading a book from Dr. Sarno. He will challenge the mechanistic view of the human body many of you erroneously hold. More importantly, he will cure you if you&#

That's the problem with leftists in censorship discussions - they fundamentally don't believe in free will. It's not the website that shot people. It wasn't Trump. It was the individual. Believing otherwise is highly pro

Again, as I said in my other comment, this just sounds like a right wing version of Twitter.

I highly doubt there is more "hate-speech" on right wing 8chan than on left wing Twitter. Also, users are driven to these sites from other social media where even moderate views are often considered "fascist" and can get

Interesting article claiming that the Maltese civilization is much older than believed. It goes into the politics of archeology as well: https://grahamhancock.com/reedijkl1/ If you find the revised date hard to believe

So now we're including "survival of the unfittest" as part of evolutionary theory? Sorry, this makes zero sense. If humans really did evolve, then we hit the lottery - several times.

Er, no. The initial reaction was caused by unconscious stress or rage brought on by public speaking and the subsequent incidents were a learned Pavlovian response. I am always recommending The Mindbody Prescription on here and have no idea

Tinnitus is usually a psychosomatic symptom, especially if you haven't suffered any kind of ear trauma recently. Medicine only begrudgingly accepts the role of stress despite it being obvious to sufferers, however stress is only part o

I briefly perused the wiki article for meniere's and it fits all the hallmark signs of a psychosomatic symptom, right down to medieval, I mean mainstream medicine not knowing the cause. I recommend reading Divided Mind - good luck!

Hah, that is an excellent book. I remember it pissed off one of my friends who claimed that slow practice is the best way to learn. Glad I didn't listen to him, I use these techniques when learning all kinds of stuff. Glenn Gould pract

It would be really neat if they found traces of "Atlantis", assuming some of it survived underwater erosion. They already found a few sites off the coasts of India and Indonesia. And We know an ancient civilization existed that go
