+10000000. I totally agree with you. But, I don't know what to do about it. We've tried public and private schools, but I think a lot of the problem is our culture. Hard work and studying are not rewarded; group mind-think and sta

Religion is defined as, 'The belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods.' Notice the word "especially". Scientology is based on the idea of what some might call aliens havi

I'm critical of atheism, because it is itself a religious belief and those that believe and evangelize it refuse to recognize it as a religion in and of itself. I live in the U.S. where the country was built by those that wanted freedo

We could replace HN with a mailing list also, but I'm not sure that would solve anything, would it? HN is about discussion, and the inability to comment makes it spam, rather than a topic.

It would be nice if they had used the money they put into this building towards a philanthropic goal instead. Say what you will about Bill Gates, but he has used much of his and Warren Buffett's money for truly great things.

Agree with this post, but would go further: if someone feels that they are not contributing in a way commensurate with what they think they should be able to contribute, then the reason- whether they are bored or not, and it is their faul

Right on. To add to this, early stage terraforming is in the immediate rather than long-term plan for Mars. As soon as we start producing CO2 on Mars, we're on our way. I'm not against colonizing space itself, but early seagoing e

Sorry late on the reply. I didn't mix it up. I was commenting that in my past recent experience, upgrading resulted in a slower system. I was just warning others not to do that. I'm not upgrading to 14.04 because I don't want
