Do you think they have a policy against bringing a tub in? I'd just as well like to grab one of those hip hugger laundry baskets to pack my groceries around in. Maybe I'll try that some time. Probably won't fly with the CV sh

I'd also be interested in potentially collaborating with people this Summer on further, similar projects. I'd love to have access to a collaborative space to find folks interested in it, however, I'm a little reluctant to dis

That is an entirely different problem and more of a red herring than a talking point. "Better" is entirely relative and using a western-centric framework to assert a "hierarchy of goodness". However, it is not an objecti

I've never been wholly convinced that such a treatment merits design or engineering, beyond implicit safety rails and dose optimization - even then there are instances where the bumpers had ought to be removed entirely. It has however

Interesting, I suppose I overlooked the fact that they're indeed separate modalities, I suppose it's because most of my reading originates at the beginning of the historical record. It's not something I had explicitly conside

What happens if you flip the property->agriculture assertion, instead agriculture->property. This regime makes more sense to me, especially when considering the supposed nutritional poverty that the earliest agricultural societies are

It's ADHD when it affects the individual's ability to achieve their goals, otherwise, yes, it is just a normal state of being. However this classification schema is not necessarily well abided. And so diagnostics can become an exp

Sure it does. It's just not a 1:1 correlation. People who could otherwise live there are priced out and in lieu of such an arrangement they occupy homes elsewhere while the mansion sits vacant. There is of course the egregious, low-den

Skeptically. Pinker has been called out for cherry picking by numerous other authors, and particularly Graeber/Wengrow who are a duo of academic anthropologist and archaeologist respectively. Another is Christopher Ryan. In both cases

Inflation adjusted, but lended money is accounted for as growth isn't it? Which itself is often "printing money".

Replication is kind of fuzzy though. A lot of things are replicated, just indirectly, building on suppositions supported by but not directly reproducing the study. The problem here is perhaps one of reporting negative results. It'd be

>it's usually exploitable in proportion to current standing As I reckon it, standing is derived from the system. The system gives license to Apple to patent certain aspects of design, trademarks, etc. They don't have a truly ma

I think it's too much oversight that allows these sort of behaviors. Too many moats that are too deep and too wide. If GIMP could ship with the Photoshop key map and have nigh 1:1 behaviors these things become commodities and thus mu

As someone who doesn't have the resources: of course I don't. But I also don't want the markets dictated by the whims of some dissociated jackoff arrogantly and ineffectively disbursing obscene amounts of money, and certainly

But he's correct, amyloid plaque theory was founded on bad data. Amyloid plaques as causal agents is unclear, but it was made to appear clear by poisoned data, and many studies conducted afterwards, in good faith, assumed that the info

This is a radical aside that extrapolates my meaning to an extreme. I don't mean to say people had ought to refuse work altogether, moreso that it would be ideal if one could refuse to pay taxes to a government insistent on fueling war

That's also what I was hoping for, but yeah, NMS kinda just culminated into pastel drudgery. For some reason it just doesn't feel like there is either carrot or stick and I suppose the creative avenues offered don't really fe

I think it's more nuanced than that. As it's currently ordered society is a forced participation regime. I don't get the option to say "no." to a great many things. This is due to a loss of security, I don't ge

Could technology be sufficient? I mean you've got a body, too, right? So the moment the environment changes so does the mind state. So unless you've come up with a method of modeling all of those influences... And food, and hormon

Yeah, but now you're associated with a killer, whatever SNPs you share pile up into correlates. Insurance companies see you as feckless, lenders see you as risky, law enforcement sees you as a likely criminal, justice sees you as a bur

If you could ask a caged rat how they're doing, and a wild rat how they're doing, do you think their answers would differ? And you'll have to prove those measures are objective, too.

I bet there's folk tales that parallel it with angry forest spirits, too. Explaining the unknown with anthropomorphization.

Potatoes are also nightshades, and they're also capable of producing toxins. Any green patches will likely contain chaconine and solanine.

I wasn't really thinking of any particular era, I have some vague familiarity with the concept of pater familias and famiglia as a "body of slaves". This, I reckon, aligns with the Christian family modal that I'm mos

Does it specify the latter, Christianized Roman Empire, or is it more of a generalized account? And does it retell of the common Roman, or of the Roman elite? These tales may be radically different, from what I understand. I expect the Chri

Lone parent children can grow up fine. They very often do not. Teachers are part of large state institutions, paid workers. They're not going to finance someone's surgery, rent, or groceries. Offloading this kind of stuff onto

We went from cultural conventions dating back to the Roman empire at least and upheaved them in large part. Those were staples in the social fabric which have not yet been hewn shut. It's no wonder we're replete with relational dy

Maybe the aggregate, in their unwillingness to act in favor of good/love/empathy/truth - of virtue - is being doled out their own karmic rash by the frequency of misdeeds. Inaction is just as culpable as inaction - failing to

It doesn't have to material consequence. Do you think these people are happy or fulfilled? They build their own prisons and make their own beds.

They'd bring up that poverty is the "necessity" in the phrase "Necessity is the mother of invention." though perhaps in lieu of invention , industry. In neither case is either correct. Rather poverty exists in a st
