IMO a decent solution to the low-birth-rate problem is not to try to hook up all the singles together, but rather encourage existing couples to have more children. Make it socially acceptable and even desirable to have more children. Give i

What cultures, outside Europe, think it's ok to display sexualized body parts? Even in an advanced/industrialized nation like Japan, typical women don't even show cleavage, because it's considered indecent. Typical TV dr

I might be in the minority here, but I don't think that 'thinking like a programmer' is something that everyone is capable of doing. I think there might be some kind of tyranny in trying to force it on everyone.

WebStorm is very heavy, and its TypeScript support has some issues that were deal breakers for me (last time I tried).

I think he's wrong on the R1C1 mode. At least in the latest version of excel on mac, you can observe this behavior: 1) In cell A, reference cell B 2) Cut (not copy) cell C and paste it over cell B 3) Observe cell A throwing a #REF! err

What is this nonsense? Why do conference organizers need to care about finding speakers to represent fat people, for example? Is this really a tech conference?

Isn't that theory rooted in the particles view of the universe? It's totally at odds with this paper, it seems to me. Is it not?

When you fire a photon on a wall and see a blip, the blip is the location of the atom that had the electron that absorbed the photons energy (The electron that interacted with the photon). Presumably there are gazillion photons. Presumably

If I understand correctly, there's currently no explanation of how one electron gets picked out of all the gazillions of electrons available; am I correct? Would that just be considered a fundamental randomness in nature?

That's more or less why I asked the question. A lot of people in the programming field promote the notion that you can teach yourself coding and get by just fine. This trend kind of worries me.

If I understand correctly, it interacts with an electron that's more or less locked into a small place around an atom. It doesn't just hit that one point; the blip represents the location of the atom that had the electron that abs

What the article describes as "competence" sounds like total incompetence to me. If you learn a pattern from a book or a class or a blog post, and then you apply it in a project just because "the book said so" you are no

I don't understand your objection. The woman does not get a copy of the man's status. She gets high status by marrying a high status man. The wife of Donald Trump does not have to achieve anything to gain status. She gains status

But how many of these men are actually desirable by the women? The services in the article cost upwards of $10k which means the woman in this case might be married to a rich high status man, which is arguably difficult to come by. If you ar

I actually used to have that limit set to 60, but then when I thought about it, I probably would still have some physical strength at 60 and still wouldn't want to die. But at 80 I can't imagine myself being other than a total wre

I actually partially agree with you but for a slightly different reason. It seems like an unfalsifiable claim that rests solely on intuition and the notion that you can: "well just think about it, it all makes sense!"

Interesting. I've often contemplated about it. I don't think I want to live past 80. I mean unless there would be a medical revolution where you can retain youth or slow down aging significantly.
