But it seems an awful way to dismiss the discussion on a date. Comparing the belief in Christ with the belief in Zeus!? I know it may be logical for an atheist, but for a Christian it may actually be insulting.

My father was an atheist and I was raised that way. But I became an agnostic. On what evidence? I cannot explain how wonderful is that I am alive and aware of my own existence right now.

and as far as I know they are the best mechanism to predict the outcome of an election. It's an honest opinion since they are betting their own money independently of their personal preferences.

I don't believe in original ideas either. On the other had if somebody is already making money with the same idea it means that money can be made. You should embrace competition as it serves as a validation of your idea.

Why did the US went from 3% to 2% growth? My guess is that before it had a very low population density and a lot of fertile land. That changed when population density increased. Check the conclusions of this article. http://mises.org/daily

My friend who is far more organized than me, logged his programming hours every day. His conclusion is that you are really productive max 6 hours a day and you fill the rest of the day with other work. Of course there are days where you can

Chess is very interesting. But it seems like a big investment on time. In my case there are bunch of other things that I rather learn. Right now it is bjj (which believe it or not is kind of similar to chess) It would have been cool to lear

I don't support the use of drugs either. But we are living very difficult times and a lot of truly innocent people are suffering. We need to find a better way, but the first step is to have a better understanding of the problem and that is

These people are working 15 hour shifts and they work 6.25 days a week. That means they are working over 90 hours a week; every week. I can't believe you actually compare that with the conditions in the west. The marginal cost for the emplo

"Pair programming" is probably the only agile practice of which I am not convinced. I'm open to do it, but I don't really know how much productive you become. Also a lot of people seem to think agile is equivalent to "pair programming" and

Very good comment. They are better off with these jobs than without them. Still, they should have some basic working conditions. Such as max 45hrs a week. 2 week vacation a year, etc.
