This is not strictly an opinion; this is backed by experiment and logic. It might be arguable that there are two main areas of talent; and success in a field is a function of passion in a field and the underlying aptitude in those two modes

Right; I am in the developed world and I do recognize to some degree what is going on in Africa and rural parts of Asia and South America. I think most of the first world's 'intruding into other peoples wars in the name of peace' are genera

I am not convinced. There is a rising trend of altruism and people just generally identifying beyond their families or countries. Not to say it's bound to happen, but I think our chance of having a reasonably fair and acceptably peaceful w

As far as I can tell, the 'problem' is the huge gap between reality and what is generally accepted as 'true.' I feel very much like the author of the post, as I imagine a lot of others do. I sometimes try and hold it all in my head; the go

This is small and sort of outside the context of what you were looking for; but especially for branches that generally have waits, having a queue/line in the middle of the room laid out by ropes is the slightest bit unsettling. It would be

I really just disagree with all of that. Assange did not appear to me to be making any assumption about political power being monolithic. He is only talking about conspiracies as things in general having power, and notes that large parts

Presumably you would only have to trust the network in full. Similar to how bitcoin operates. You might have to trust the 'tracker' to give you a legit network, but once you are in the swarm, it is easy to tell if any of the nodes are lyi

I don't think your definition of 'true rebel' is really that robust. A rebel is not a someone who refuses to be apart of anything. A true rebel is someone who acts of their own convictions, and those convictions happen to conflict with th

I am extremely thankful that expertise in my hobbies are valuable; and there are a couple times where I really f'd up, and consequences could have been much worse than they were.

I don't think he was buried due to his joke about rape. Or at least I hope not. He wasn't pulling rape out of thin air, as it's obviously the context of thread. I imagine he was down modded for his weak use of sarcasm and abrasive way of

I see I might have just been mistaken about the process. I was lead to believe, from reading the title, that there was some court action that ruled that Assange be detained. After reading the article I was more under the impression it was

I was under the impression that this was not a mere formality; but rather a request from a lawyer that may or may not be granted. Reading roel_v's comment though I may be mistaken.

Nothing against the OP since s/he just copied the title from the article; but that title is really misleading. A prosecutor requesting a court order to detain someone for questioning simply does not mean 'Sweden' proper wants to detain As
