This headline is offensive. Nowhere in the article does he indicate that he is proud to be poor. Not that there would be anything wrong with that — quite the opposite, in fact, however, this headline reeks of elitism.

Publicly shaming someone because they were mean to you — this is a lot worse than bullying. Zed Shaw is famous because he's good; not because people love his personality. That being said, I enjoy his personality far more than the aut

Just tried mine out and am pretty disappointed. Mouse and keyboard seem pretty revolutionary after 15 minutes with the Leap.

This guy is a pharmaceuticals shill — of course he denounces his competitors.

No, that was your inference. The implication was that correlation does not equal causation.

by lightyrs 13y ago
Yes, precisely! It is possible to prove causation, however, this submission does not do so. Please read this primer: http://www.michaelnielsen.org/ddi/if-correlation-doesnt-impl...

I'm sorry — I should have said 'proof'.

Not at all. However, I also don't then post inflammatory pseudoscientific articles on the Internet with headlines like "White stove caused burns in man who was never burned by black stove." It's the current trend of ba

Look, I understand many of you are upset by this, however, there are ways to prove causation — it's just a lot more complicated than this. Here's a primer: http://www.michaelnielsen.org/ddi/if-correlation-does

What conspiracy are you referring to?

Interesting that in your 123 days here, you've made a point of defending the government in almost all of your comments. What makes you so secure in your trust?

As evidenced by your 'hug request' anecdote, it seems your time could be better spent AFK in general and learning how and why people interact with one another. For example, hugging is a spontaneous gesture (aside from greeting&#x

Vote for who? The Republican who supports the status quo or the Democrat who supports the status quo? Or the third party candidate who won't win?

Yes, I don't know why this is so difficult for people to comprehend.

Let's say for the sake of argument that everything you listed is true, which, it's clearly not. Does it matter to you at all that this is UNCONSTITUTIONAL? Does the founding charter of our nation mean absolutely nothing to you

It's not the sixties anymore. You can waste precious time and resources protesting or you can raise funds, buy a politician or two, and make some real fucking changes like an adult.
