Fair point. I should say, it wouldn't surprise me if evolution favored a division of complimentary abilities. It also wouldn't surprise me to instead see a homogenous distribution across sexes as another commenter pointed out. My

> When it says you're wrong is when you show how pro science you really are! That's key. It's perhaps one of the main barriers to exploring this topic. I think it expresses itself mostly unconsciously. It can be terrifying

This topic has obviously become highly socio-political. The current fashion is that there are basically NO biological sex-type differences; that any sex-type differences are socially imposed and generally disadvantageous to women. I think

Thanks, I really appreciate this distillation. If we've learned anything, it's that trying to write stream of consciousness screedy manifestos like this is super hard and people should probably just stop trying. Still though, desp

Oh but we are going to agree on this because...I'm opening my mind to what you are saying. Way too much energy behind this for you to just be some guy trying to win an argument on the Internet. Thanks for the perspectives.

Nope, not even asking for the level of support they have for BTC/ETH/LTC. I was talking a simple ability to access/withdraw out the BCC post-fork. I do work in consumer software and I stand by my recommendation. I'm pret

So far it's basically a listing of scam sites trying to masquerade myetherwallet.com. It's like 20 pages deep for just for that. I was thinking it would be something more akin to: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1703.0

I think we've got some Coinbase employees and investors taking this comment pretty hard. Oh the chilling effects.

...so update -- it came true. Coinbase has buckled under the backlash and will make everyone's BCC available to them. Your welcome to everyone who was too lazy to withdraw their funds. You didn't have navigate the byzantine manual

Right, withdrawal is easy. Figuring out how to actually claim my BCC was a (figurative) eternity. Appreciate your dismissive attitude though! Bottom line, Coinbase could have made this easy. It's not like this was some random fork by s

What an inconvenient waste of time trying to be proactive and moving my BTC out of Coinbase ahead of the fork -- just like Coinbase said to. Would have been nice if they could have decided this before hand...

Folks like us voicing this stuff may make them rethink things and they retroactively make it right for the people who didn't bother to be proactive. Which would then just add insult to injury for us! Well at least I got some good exper

Definitely wish Coinbase had just taken care of it for me. Instead, I withdrew everything to a personel wallet and will be depositing my BCC to Kraken. I'll probably just deposit my BTC to Kraken as well since I'm going through th

You are describing one possible reaction and the implication is that people should try to remain blissfully ignorant to avoid having to experience this type of envy or reduced self-esteem. There are people that have this reaction and do try

It's a mental model thing. Speaking freely (and probably self-disclosing along the way) is usually a sign of getting/being close. They see that behavior and think if they exhibited it, that's what it would mean. Which I think

Love the literate sql style. A lot of times we have to use temp tables instead of with statements though. In Vertica, all the withs of a query have fit in memory together. Using temp tables instead to create the logical sequence, you only n

Congrats! Whatever works I say. The one issue, in my experience, is that usually it's just the act of paying attention to what you eat that makes the difference (and basically all diets help with this). I still think there is value in

Had a similar idea once upon a time to auto narrate any article using text-to-speech. Got about as far as you did it sounds like. Having human narration seems so plausible if you approached gig style. Between-work actors could read for you
