I don't doubt your intentions and it was nice of you to preface your correction with such reservation, but I gotta give a shout-out to descriptivism: if you can understand what's meant, maybe it's not incorrect!

Probably "Such a shame he decided to join ISIS." It doesn't have to be so either/or or black and white?

JSYK, Nimitz-class carriers have at least 200 officers, which gives a 16:1 ratio, but as far as I know this doesn't include officers from the air wings (which makes sense, since they have less of a "managerial / college gradu

Essays for transfering are very similar: "Why do you want to come here / why did you leave your last situation?" Surely they'd like you to write about environment or purpose, but like with a first job as a kid, I think &

Definitely. However, it's also just the most important factor in weight control, with macronutrients, nutrient timing, and food composition playing lesser roles.

I think instead of being coached, barbell lifts require learning them, as opposed to just doing the movements described on the machines' pictures. The difference means that anyone right now can go to YouTube and look up the proper

You're the farm guy! Reading your comments on other threads was very interesting. Books are the same way for me, I can't bear to part with them!

After reading your comment -- some of the thoughts of which I have already come to myself -- I realize it could be really hard to tease apart the source of any desire I have to minimalize: do I want to because I think it's genuinely a

Like three years ago, I used to think I was not-normal because I only went every other day. This didn't cause me discomfort or anything, it was just how I went. Then for some reason I experimented with eating prunes. I really don'

I do think that collecting anecdotes from other fields can help you think better in your own field of work. I'm just not so sure that, for example, doing Sudoku makes you any better at thinking about things. Brain training exercises ar

Really, choosing Obama as the inflection point for the legitimacy of the prize is misplaced: Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1973. While maybe Obama didn't do anything to deserve it, Kissinger arguably did do t

Recent research has shown that progressing with 8-12 reps is not any more optimal for hypertrophy than progressing with 20-30 reps (what people would normally think of as developing "muscular endurance"). The difference in practic

To help sargun out more, Hopper was an O-7, where naval officer's ranks go from O-1 (ensign) to O-10 (admiral). This rank -- along with O-8 (rear admiral (upper half)) -- was previously called "commodore," and in some other c
