I think they linked to the wrong study. I believe it's here: https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/STROKEAHA.118.023100 Unfortunately, it's locked. So I'm going to go for 0.5 out of 3 on this one.

I believe the point (excuse the pun) is that it may well be a mathematical theory but it's not (yet?) a scientific one.

I'm going to hazard a guess that the answer to the question in the title is a combination of: + she wasn't even well known to specialist academics until the late 60's. + the works really aren't very interesting to anyone

I see. So you have no basis for the claim. I genuinely don’t see why you’d make something like that up when the truth is awful enough. But I’m sure you have your reasons.

> The killings were legal till the 60's That's an astonishing statement. Could you elaborate? The Aboriginal population has been treated heinously since European settlement but that's a, literally, incredible claim.

This was a long time ago. I'd just taken over as "team lead" of the internal support desk for an interest rate swap trading system at a tier 1 bank. By team lead, I mean that I was nominally in charge of the one contractor wh

That's pretty straightforward in principle. What they need to do is the same as older folk i.e. vote in large numbers for their own financial interest. Politicians are fairly simple people at heart. If pandering to you will get them (r

Probably for the existence of God. God's existence, if He were to have a reasonable fraction of the attributes ascribed to him, would be trivially provable to the most hardened atheist. The fact that that hasn't happened, with no

It's perfectly reasonable to look at the universe and believe that it came from something. Where there's little to no evidence is that it was designed. What for, us? Hardly, if so that's some record for redundant packaging. S

It's only absurd if you waive a right that is beneficial to you. In the EU we have a legal right to work no more than 30-something hours (I don't recall the exact figure). Now, I'm fine with the idea that no-one should be fo

I'm not a big buyer of the hype but I do think there's some value in certain types of processes. For example, where there's a strong need for multi-party audit transparency. So the supply chain one and the marine insurance on

In fairness to the article, it is putting some flesh on the bones of an area that I have seen cause surprise. It's a variant of the observation that, although in C++ you aren't paying a direct abstraction cost, you are often pay

Net compensation includes bonuses and such. It's not just wages. The 48% figure is the cumulative total of people with net compensation < 30k. So it's not wrong by construction just oddly misleading. If you look at the SSA data

Probably. And both can definitely be contributors to psychological strain. So, in my view, it's not unreasonable for the APA to say that. In fairness, I don't see this as the APA saying that these things are inherently harmful. Th
