This 100% doesn't affect most food. I grew up in Israel, where things being Kosher is the norm rather than the exception. Although the central Rabbinate covers most kosher foods, the more orthodox will often defer to the authority of p

Well, given that there is a causal link between the highness of the tech and its difficulty, I'm not sure you truly have "easy and high". Maybe you can find "medium-hard and high", but I think that "high"

This gave me a strong Flowers for Algernon vibe. For someone that's high functioning only with experiences like these is it really possible to see what things are still "missing".

I think it's important to recognize that driver happiness is a major component in ensuring the 3 things you do care about in the long term.

I don't understand where you see that argument in the article. The statement was descriptive, not prescriptive. The claim is that the core of our thinking is analogy-based. It doesn't say we are incapable of logical reasoning, or

I had to google around to find this out, but looks like this will be performed in the Cygnus craft that results from Orbital ATK's flight Cygnus CRS OA-6 which is expected to launch on March 22 (PDT, it's the 23rd UTC).

I think you've miscategorized a distinction. I'm in my late 20s, and I share both of the proclivities you describe: I'm both curious about things and prefer to find out if it's relatively easy to do so. What you desc

I got to spend some time talking with him once when we were both visiting the offices of OLPC in Cambridge, more or less across the street from MIT's building 32 where CSAIL is located. I told him a little about what I was working on (

So rather than working at the edges of social and natural sciences, looking at the unknown and feeding back (perhaps not as much as it could), as western analytic philosophy does now, they seek a return to a time when a philosopher was priz

Although PG makes a few turns of phrase, one of which is quoted in OP, that implies a straw-man who wants to end all economic inequality, he also talks several times about tackling the effects of economic inequality. The footnote in OP refe

A slight aside: in the first paragraph they mention matching problems. I wish more people in the "sharing economy" world made themselves aware of this. Most companies in that field seem to behave as if providers are fungible, when

This starts with a false statement--"The “Agile” fad grew up in web consulting"--and just continues downhill. I'm going to try and not make this criticism a No True Scotsman, but this post describes a vaguely Scrum-flavored a

Not a podcast, but I found many of the history courses on The Great Courses series (which is now available on Audible) are like what you desire. Not all of them are, but it's usually possible to tell based on the description.
