1h sports per week for 30 years means 7h * 52 * 30 = 10920h additional life. Equals to 1.25 additional years. So for 30 years of exercise you get about 1 additionl year? I hoped for more :-P

how it used to be: you fight, win and get some rewards or loose and leave with a bleeding nose. How it is now: you fight and everybody dies from nuclear / bio / nano / .. weapon.

Environment is changing. Fighting over pieces of that rock may be less beneficial in our age. Evolution will teach us to change.

Really shocking that 95% of people can't distinguish the diet preferences of the other 5% of people. Shame on them..

Maybe we start reducing CO2 level in the athmosphere (not only reduce CO2 output) ? Any plans for that (besides plant more trees)?

I understand what an "optimal solution" might be. But what is an optimal goal?

The different levels emerge from each other. And I don't think that we can be sure to have found the most basic one, or even to assume that there is a most basic level. But the emergent levels are not less 'real' than the mor

I visited the website you mentioned: qbix.com My add-blocker (ublock) blocked third party resources from cloudflare.com on that website. It's a funny fact after reading your comment in this thread.

I thought that statistics is the right tool to handle uncertainity? I had the impression that all the "soft" science is based on statistics. We can't prove that smoking kills people. But, given a certain confidance interval (

What we see here is evolution of advertisement. From low quality spam-like ads to higher quality advertorials, which must provide some usefullness to the reader in order to carmouflage as normal content and to attract attention. I work in a

My theory about evolution and aging is that evolution just doesnt care about individuals after they created offspring. There is no advantage for an individual (or a species) to live longer than to create offspring. Hence evolution never car

Maybe some non-programmers manage to solve the problem itself. But only a tiny part of them will be able to write down what they actually did (step by step) in a precise way suiteable to tranlate it into a computer program.

My problem with flash is the same as with all plugins: scroll doesnt work, mouse-gesture dont work, shortcuts dont work, no control of content. Its like opening an enterly other program in browser without any integration.

Then a Map would be a ReadableMap, but a ReadableMap wouldn't be a Map. If a method expects a Map, you would't be able to put a ReadableMap (or a WriteableMap) into it. My solution so far is to avoid to return a map or to expect a

I am too small a group to be cared about. But in my opinion only poor designed websites use JS for layout or navigation. And the way back to the search-engine is always just one mouse gesture away. JS = code written by someone with not nec
