But, based on the upvotes of the post, the OP seems to ring true for a significant number of people here. Also, this is not a person who occasionally works from home, but works from home all the time. PS. mandatory oatmeal: http://theoatm

I guess many indie developers and freelancers with an office-work history have the same issue. If you have the time, an appropriate option might be to go back to school or do some postgrad studies.

Hmm, that's not urbanization that's construction. A large number of these buildings are empty, and too expensive for immigrants to rent (let alone buy). Also, building glass boxes in the scorching desert heat does not make good environmenta

Alpha Males are by definition strong providers, since they get preferential access to food. Alpha females are very picky about who they mate with too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_(ethology)

How is it sound? Bearing the children of a male that is not a proven provider is more risky than bearing the children of a proven provider (the children will thus be more likely to be providers themselves). The sperm competition would be ba

This kind of rationalizing doesn't sound really serious. Does that not imply that women deceit their partners and are thus genetically predisposed liars? Also, if she has chosen a partner it means he (and his sperm) are better genetically.

Actually they have the relative finder since a long time ago (i think from the beginning?). Also, you have to consent to that, and when i joined they had a warning that situations like these can happen. Sounds to me that in your case, the w

That's a sweeping over-generalization. More like "many inferences based on statistics are not as strong as they appear to be many are not even true". That article is important (and well known) for a certain type of life sciences publication

Ethical questions cannot not really be answered by science cause that would be an appeal to nature. Some evo-psychologists may claim otherwise, but i think he's right about their narrow utilitarian position.

No doubt about that; yet postmodernists seem to be the ones most engaged in what is perceived as a pursuit to discredit or trivialize science. Unfortunately, they are loud people so it's hard to hear other, more interesting views on the phi

Most of what i 've heard about consciousness and experience from philosophers involve arbitrary constructs such as "qualia"; one of the most prominent philosophers of mind posits that consciousness should be an ubiquitous property on top of

I wouldn't agree; this essay takes few examples of bad or half-baked science (which are disputed even among scientists, in specific fields such as behavioral ecology and evo. psychology, and behavioral neuroscience) and generalizes to al

It wasn't a good idea to just copy-paste a newsfeed on top of your gmail contacts. Also trying to be everything all at once is usually a bad choice. It might fare better if it had been more private or work-oriented, something like a yammer
