Shameful that this man living 100 years ago isn't as progressive as I am. He's saying it goes at least that far back, not that Francis bacon invented curiosity.

I think it is kind of funny that one arm of the government is saying Apple can't sell its watches, while another arm is saying the watches are furthering their monopoly position.

The problem is you're just overlaying suburban lifestyle on a city without adjusting it to suit your environment. The equivalent would be a city dweller moving to the suburbs and thinking they can just walk to Walmart, when it might be

Life doesn't seem short. Heck, humans are some of the longest lived mammals in the world. I suspect people only say life is short because they are counting the days ahead of them and comparing it to the days behind them - not consideri

Obscene stuff like this seems perfect for the young. Not quite at the same level, but I wrote a custom tiling GUI in befunge when I was 19 (well, the befunge program output draw instructions which were rendered by a traditional C program).

Sure - my point was that maybe mammoths weren't viewed as nice shared stable resources, but rather like cruel giants that might destroy your settlement, crops, and family randomly for fun. Sort of like how how elephants are viewed by r
