Money as a medium of exchange has no magical properties. But you need to think about what money represents - how it ties different people together. Some people make money, then spend it on their own subsistence. Others are able to use money

Why is Althusser's theory bogus? I sympathise with your assessment, but I haven't read enough to justify my sympathies

maybe if you could somehow set up sensors in every axon, but the level of analysis you can do with EEG isn't very informative

Material wealth is not enough in itself - capital must have gained it through just means and emerge the victor of a fair competition. That’s the liberal conservative’s personal responsibility. I’m not sure about the Uber case, but try apply

I thought it was ironic, because it starts out almost like a children's story and is very approachable. I'd rather read this than a textbook, that's for sure.

What did Saddam or Afghanistan have to do with 9/11? Saudi Arabia and (I think) Pakistan were connected to 9/11, both countries that are US allies. Understanding why the US entered Iraq is not hard: https://www.youtube.

It's demonstrating how to find the line that passes through two points x=a, x=b on the function y=f(x). Without having read the actual page, I assume he's going to move a and b close to eachother to approximate the tangent of the

I don't know much about multics emacs, but the author's knowledge of baroque counterpoint and fugue is unparalleled outside of academe. He's spread his knowledge of music theory with many, including me, on the (opensource) mu

The most famous example of this is sickle cell anaemia, which offers resistance against malaria.

This is just Ayn Randian reactionary propaganda, a society based on these hateful ideas is not one I would want to live in.

Thanks for this! I'm doing an undergrad thesis applying TDA to EEG. Currently I've been trying out using a sublevel set filtration on EEG data using a sliding window. For some reason the total persistence (sum of barcode lengths)

I'm not sure if genetics play as great a role as culture. IMO there is enough genetic variation in all cultures to produce Einsteins, but some cultures are able to cultivate that potential better than others. You can't separate cu

I'm currently doing a thesis using TDA. Excuse my shameless opportunism, but the topic I've come up with is using figure h [1] as a channel selection mechanism to select EEG channels [2]. I plan to then use a Gaussian process (si

As an Australian, I'd just like to say, before the expert Americans come here on their high horse and lecture us about freedom and bald eagles - different cultures value different things. There's a difficult debate between "f

You're right, maybe I should have said race instead of skin colour and added sexism to my list of accusations.

The purpose of your circumlocution is to remain ambiguous enough to fall back to a less controversial position when called out. Just say what mean, which is that skin colour correlates with IQ. I hate it when your ilk make race vs IQ seem l

IQ itself is not even close to science in the sense of physics, chemistry, or even biology. Psychology as a whole is disreputable, literally half its studies fail to replicate. You might as well flip a coin. Sure, IQ is the best that we hav

What did you cover? At my uni they only had communications theory, which covered stuff like software defined radios. Information theory was a significant part of it though.
