Not mediocre compared to some hyper-competitive person, but mediocre compared to your potential. It seems pretty obvious that fully self-actualized people are happier. They get more of what they want, and feel fulfilled for doing so.

Why should these things be related? Novelty is actually one of the things that sexually attracts men so even if porn viewers were all amateur historians these would probably be anti-correlated. But why does it matter anyway? Is it bad to li

GreenPeace, for example, has been lying about nuclear power forever. All the radiation grifters on Youtube who talk about scintillations per m^3 of seawater as proof that Fukushima is killing Californians, etc. "Concerned citizens"

C++ has a high barrier because it exposes the inherent complexity of computing. If you've managed to fight through that you can probably pick up the simplified concepts in Javascript, Python, Ruby, etc.

Because of non-scientific ideologues. If all the pro-nuke people sabotaged solar rollouts would you say that solar was less viable, or would you blame the sabotage?

No. Without an existing obligation, not at all. But if you're the same party displaying the ads, or working for them, then yes - you're intentionally defrauding the ad company.

I think the mistake was a lack of marketing (well, and all the mistakes that led up to that). Even making the game primarily for himself wasn't a mistake, it was all he wanted to make so it was that or no game at all. It's reasona

fwiw, it's not the sexual imagery that bothers most people, it's the degradation they hear in the rest of the song. "Hoes in this house" for example. Sex is natural, calling women whores is not. One is a fine thing for a

I don't agree with your conclusion though, in that I don't think it's a meaningful statement. All value is dependent on the use. Food is useful for sustenance, but less useful for shelter. Currency is worthless to eat, but us

I agree about the legal dodgery here. The way healthcare is available via employers means that contractors and part-time workers are hurt unreasonably. The solution to that is letting people keep their plan when quitting a job, reupping a p

Why would it matter? Legally even? Once you have the pirated dataset you're merely letting the program analyze it, not copying it. The resulting network isn't a transformation of the copyrighted work, by the pigeon-hole principle.

But downvoting me because I'm not wrong, but "disagreeable" (read, correct) is dishonest. And no, causation seems to run the other way, apparently being a unionist makes you dishonest.
