League of Legends suffers from a problem no one's figured out how to fix yet, or that would require so much effort, anyone capable of figuring it out would rather work for a FAANG, which is: How do you separate people who want to excel

The "problem" with EverQuest wasn't the game, it was the people. It's just like real life. You aren't supposed to be the hero. You aren't supposed to have all the best everything and a million platinum. You

What's "naïve" is you or anyone else thinking they have the power to "nudge people into better patterns", which is exactly what the kind of behavior you're promoting attempts to accomplish. You can't, and

This is nonsense. Saws that chop off fingers aren't defective - the user is. It's a simple argument to make. Saw Y doesn't have safety features and you use it at your own risk of injury. Saw X will stop cutting the moment it

"rigged with explosives" is likely a bit of an exaggeration. It would not be difficult to conduct a campus-wide evacuation then have the Taiwanese Air Force destroy the facility with targeted weapons. It might also be the case tha

Then what? That isn't hard to figure out. If China invades Taiwan before enough TSMC plants are built in America to meet American, and by extension - Western - demand for electronics, then it's war. Period, end of story. There is

I love Nonviolent Communication , although I'm not good at implementing it and might never be. Research seems to know that so many of our traits are innate and are extremely difficult to change.

Reading bullshit like this article makes me realize why Joshua Fluke's YouTube channel is so popular. The jig is up. People aren't fooled any longer by corporate bullshit, and it's none too soon in my opinion.

I'm going to take the opposite position and posit that the "problem" with studying humans is that we just don't know enough yet. We can't predict human behavior because our science is simply not advanced enough. I t

Jesus... this is almost laughable. Yeah, something can be done. What was done to me as a kid in the 80s and 90s. Kick them out of the house. Tell them to go outside and play with their friends. Stop helicopter parenting them every second of

Because you have self-respect and shouldn't be taking handouts if you're capable of working? No one capable of working should be taking unemployment, ever. This is how social safety nets get demonized by politicians, and it works.

Who defines "polite"? Who defines "agitated"? One person's "asshole" is another person's "passionate".

Automakers shouldn't be caring about gas mileage. YOU should. If you want to drive a 50 MPG Prius, do it. If you want to drive a 12 MPG PowerStroke Diesel V-10 Ford F-350, do it.
