I actually once bought this book "Change Your Brain, Change Your Life", written by a certain Dr. Amen. I think his claims went not far beyond the emphasis on how diagnostic tools, most prominently MRI are useful for attuning treat

Finland has a huge collection of quirky things, really: - the allegedly worst musicians: Elekäläiset - Literature that starts with glorification of collective suicide only to be attempted, failed, called off some pages later. Then reschedul

In a more extreme form, someone once compared Peppa Pig with real health services. I'm somewhat painfully reminded of the ̶w̶a̶s̶t̶e̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶t̶i̶m̶e̶ scientific value that is this kind of content.

I liked mathematics, but nobody got me to crave it like Vihart. That Youtube legend covers complex mathematics like no one else. The teaching method introduced in the article spontaneously reminded me of her chaotically creative ways...

Reminds me of "Once upon a forest". A great mixture of scientific facts and research scaled against the cultural hearsay and mysticism around forests from various cultures. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aG1vwxFmw

Urm, you need git, you need build tools... and pacman. That's it. But oh yeah, because I do these things by hand and check whether the source urls point to the place I'd actually like to install (and other code doesn't downlo

Are you a history professor or a diplomat of some sort? You just delivered the kind of analysis I'd pay money to read in a paper.

Sorry when I'm going all-out nerd here, but isn't the quiet eye the exact stance on war which is talked about over and over in Stephen King novels? I'm thinking It, the Dark Tower series, the Talisman (plus sequel), all basic

That's such an amazing thing about them. I know a few places that... would pretty much die for such a global "MITM" service, so I wonder if it's five corners financing it.

We're using a summarization tool (see below) in our software. User feedback is mixed. I'm not sure whether that's because legally binding texts produced by political bodies are complex and generally making themselves hard to

Keep your fingers busy, and life will probably sort itself out. Lather, rinse repeat. I turned out in a pretty cool place by simply wrapping my head around things about computers all day. Having access to read and understand all levels of w

My blood is probably smarter than me. It provides me with everything and appears so self-sufficient as long as I keep it happy with nutrients and solvent.

I'm sorry if my layman's perspective is off here, but notation that impedes the musician's ability to actually perform a piece, and be it only for visual pleasure, seems like not a very useful idea to me. It kind of reminds m
