Why did you start wearing earplugs? I know in the online music community that developing tinnitus is a fear/paranoia akin to fear of surveillance in the tech community-- not that these fears are unfounded, but many of such types tend t

Kids will learn. Tween-aged kids have no conception for how difficult life can be and it doesn't matter how much you tell them so. The point with kids is to build up their confidence and sense of possibility, and help explain to them t

Welp, you'll figure it out. Maybe university isn't for you-- and that's okay, as you long as you have the drive and (more importantly) the ability to create your own structure you'll be okay without school.

>but the decision to make the two most influential women white is a problematic and poor choice. Oh my goodness, please stop. I like seeing white people on screen too. I like seeing men on screen in important roles. I do get it; make you

I'm in second year and looking for something similar. I'm taking a math degree-- which, as a note, is not something I was "good at" in high school. Math is one of those things you have to change your brain around for but

Hate is one of those blinding emotions/states of mind that causes people to deliberately sabotage the thing-hated. Simply opposing a practice cannot be said to be hate unless the hate is what is driving the opposition. Opposition is no

Some believe that people who get abortions oppose the "institute" of life (since we don't know when life starts, we can't say it doesn't start before 9 months). Is it possible to oppose a practice one believes is ba

I agree with you, friend. Most everyone understands that people are not their actions. You can believe a behavior is wrong without hating the person behaving in that way. It's a very simple formulation.

I didn't get the totally preachy vibe from the article that you may have. In all honesty, I thought he was going for slight moralization but mostly just wishing there were realistic civilization-type games that have a complex endgame a

It would be interesting if you could explain this a little better, or find the source. Sounds a little vague but I'd like to know more.

I think the upperclass mostly "controls" lawmaking decisions for their own interest, and are almost entirely unaware of the condition/state of mind/customs of the lower classes. They don't understand how it works, a

This is a good point. And as another user pointed out, perhaps if he was there filming for days he should have requested permission from the landowners to do so. This story was a bit concerning at first, given what the phrasing implies, but

Kind of a rude response to an honest question. The point of the question is that taking care of a severely disabled child takes some dignity out of the parent's life. Their whole world for however long that child is alive is about that

This is true. The psychological effects of anything are due to how one uses it. It doesn't matter how addictive something is made to be because a good deal of the addiction is psychological. Opioids are very addictive, but most hospita

There are only two verbs in this sentence that I can see: "appetat" which means "he/she/it attacks/grasps/strives for/approaches, and "perstringat" which is a subjunctive and means "he&

Can someone help me translate the quoted Latin? I'm a beginner. >“In primis sciendum est quod imperium romanum circumlatrantium ubique nationum perstringat insania et omne latus limitum tecta naturalibus locis appetat dolosa barbari

I honestly do not like Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Go to his twitter feed. See how very smart he is. See how he comments on everything as if he has some magical scientific insight to the banal that transcends what "the average joe" think

I recommend The Next Generation. I find the crew in that series to be more variable and interesting, and the production is obviously more modern. You might be interested in the crew member Data, who is an android, considering the tech natur

In Enterprise Picard was similar but often had his missteps and faults, which were usually helped along by the empath. Enterprise is what I was mainly speaking to, actually.

Star Trek, to me, is more realistic to the inner workings of ourselves as social members and as individual minds/hearts than any other program that has before or since existed. It shows what the unknown feels like, it shows how each pe

I don't think we can say which societies contribute more or less. That's based on the metric of what they are contributing, but overall that discussion is too complex to definitively say who contributes more. As for feeling "

The gender pay gap is a myth. It is a gender earnings gap. Please stop spreading propaganda.

This is true, but our bodies are made for the physical environment and our brains are "wired" around physical location and mapping. This quality is completely absent in e-readers, often resulting in less information retained, and

This is exactly how I feel. I also take a lot of notes in the margins, and I love to underline. There isn't a single electronic interface that allows me to do this efficiently. I don't like writing word documents either, unless I&

As an anecdote, my friend's dad was once camping with a friend and lightning hit. His friend died, he did not although he, too, was struck by lightning. Years later he won a $5M home lottery. I consider him to be the luckiest person I

I was born in Canada and I'm definitely proud of it. Not necessarily that I was born here, but that Canada is the way it is and how it has shaped me. I think that is what pride in a nation really is. Americans who are proud to be Ameri

Pride in heritage is still important. Genes don't necessarily define a person's success (genes are regulated in expression, and so expression can be changed by environmental factors) but they do anchor an individual to history. Th

I haven't taken a DNA test but I would be very excited to learn I am 99% European. My family doesn't have a lot of historic records as to our origins. We know we technically started in Russia (on my mother's side), and my fat

My friend's father did a DNA test and found out he was some portion Ashkenazi Jew. He went around screaming about it for a week, so proud that his genetic line birthed Albert Einstein.

What are you worried about, exactly? If there is some other reason besides that this data has the potential to be sold, I would like to know so I can be worried too. I live in one of the largest cities in Canada, which doesn't compare
