I was going to leave a similar comment, you've done much better at expressing my own objections to the OP. I've tried to upvote you but I don't have very much karma (not sure that that matters?). Sorry to see this sort of thi

Where does Chomsky claim this? As far as I know, he has never claimed any particular part of the brain is responsible for language. The claim of Chomsky's UG is that there is a genetic component to the language faculty of humans. That&

This isn't true at all. Chomsky created a paradigm shift in linguistics. For that alone he deserves great credit. In fact, his review of BF Skinner's Verbal Behaviour [1] was enough to break new ground and help start the cognitive

I'd like to read more about that, could you give a source? From my own readings, I thought that there is very good evidence adults don't bother to correct children in a lot of cases, and that children ignore the corrections comple

While The Economist has some redeeming factors and is often worth reading, it should be noted that it is not the objective dispassionate newspaper it claims to be. The Financial Times is far more honest about its commitments. It is one of t

Dude, you basically called Russell a racist and when you got called out on it, you didn't retract. Please have the decency to retract or provide some kind of source for your claims. I don't recall anything I've read of Russel

Yeah, a great loss to Cog Sci, I love his humour too

He is fantastic, I've only been able to find a couple of videos of him on Youtube. If you have any links at all, I would really really appreciate the share, even just plain old audio recordings would be awesome. Thanks!

No, you can't because "race" isn't a useful or well defined term or object and doesn't apply (is incommensurable) to genetics. Worse it comes absolutely loaded with social and political implications. It doesn't

I'm not an expert in this area, though I do have a strong interest in more abstract child cognitive development not related to locomotion (Elizabeth Spelke and related work in particular). So I'm going by what is generally well kn

The obvious counter to this argument is that blind babies follow roughly (often slightly delayed) the same developmental pattern and stages as sighted children, with the mostly likely cause of the delay being motivational rather than anythi

+1 I used Password Safe for more than 10 years, and the developers are top notch and really into their security. I eventually moved to KeePass just because I wanted to store attachments but if that's not a deal breaker Password Safe is

Big fan of KeePass. On Mac KeePassXC is great, on Windows KeePass, but on iOS I use Strongbox [1] which is excellent. Auto fill works well, it's open source [2] and actively developed, I really don't trust none open source passwor

That sounds absolutely amazing! At that price I could stay longer! Are there many English speaking people there I could socialise with? Or is it just tourists passing through?

Yes, someone mentioned this site, and it's been excellent, thank you! Great job

Is it a bit cheaper than Lisbon, I'm not sure I could get by on $1500 in Lisbon from a previous short experience. It would be close... but I haven't tried Porto before

Yes, have heard very good things :) Thanks!

Interesting! How about English speaking, is it possible to get by there? Socialise?

Interesting... I hadn't really thought about the UK... Wouldn't the cost of living be quite high though (I'm used to London prices which are expensive!)
