The interesting implication of panspermia is that is yes, we would recognize alien life. I find this optimistic. Anthropocentric perhaps? Like a version of living in a slightly more sophisticated sci-fi show.

The blame is now even more clearly on the employees. They get the hassle of expenses because they want the kickbacks.

That's not required. To take a software analogy, you might have not exactly the same requirements in your project, but copy-paste 50 different parts from someone else's project to build yours with it. That alone doesn't make

Do you have any examples of pornhub luring children into sexual abuse? Cause if you don't, then you're going to look quite silly with those arguments.

What does that mean for websites which offer an alternative between ads and a paid subscription?

Does it though? Quoting was always available: select the text, copy it, and go. Is it really the deciding difference? Do people perceive selecting and copying as a major friction?

The problem with that is that it's paid with the loss of freedom (otherwise you have to come up with a separate rehabilitation system for those who are dangerous and solve the same problem all over again). And the loss of freedom is th

Nice thought, but it still incentivizes putting people behind bars.

Does a mountain have meaning? Does a flower? They don't suffer (probably), yet people find meaning in them and call them beautiful. The unfeeling geology did not make a mountain "art". It's up to us to see the meaning. E

This problem is a scourge of the Web. Literally half of all web sites set one of the two, assuming the default color scheme of black-on-white, resulting in beautiful unreadable blanks when the actual preset is white-on-black.

Since there are people who want to sell them. Like the nearly 400 sellers on ebay just for Sony: https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=bravia&_sac... Those people deserve a solution, too.

This is a serious accusation. Show the truth.

Considering the nuclear power shutdowns, it's not so clear that any acknowledgement was made. To me, it seems to confirm business as usual, especially the continued expansion of lignite mines.

Here's an example from today: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34216557 I can't imagine why this could possibly get downvoted.

I would prefer if users didn't use downvotes if they merely disagree. Disagreement doesn't make something not worth reading - actually, it's the opposite. I see a lot of honest opinions and questions downvoted, and this turns

I've seen this described as "active listening". But it may appear disingenious. It's really easy to fake "I like that" without having any actual interest in the topic. What's much more sincere is showing t

Happiness is related to emotions, but our emotions derive from our own needs, and as such have nothing to do with science and knowledge at all. What changes during ages is how we can realize our happiness without intruding on the lives of o

If it was up to me, I'd add the ability for the browser to ignore all styling of form elements which doesn't come from the native widgets.
