I will add that in their methodology they asked the questions without asking for political self-identification, then grouped responders by answers and labeled the groups themselves. There is a consistent and significant response shift when

It seems to go even deeper than that. Though there are likely other factors missing from this broad observation. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2012/03/study-of-...

"Node is an excellent language to learn." Am I the only one bothered by the author's repeated assertion that Node is a language? I should probably just take off my "Well, actually," glasses.

What's the methodology? If the tv is on is that counted regardless of whether kids are actively watching or not? I could see a tv on all day skewing numbers easily.

I have found that with social media in general it has never mapped to my interactions in person. I have friends I talk politics with, friends I talk sports with, friends I talk music, and etc. Sometimes they overlap, but almost never in tot

I'm not sure where you are getting those numbers from, but according to Open Secrets, in 2018 a Democrat was top receiver from Comcast. McConnell is fairly low on this list. Can you share your source? https://www.opensecrets

Sure. I see how you are using "free speech". I was just objecting to your conceit that this is somehow a new thing which you clearly, with your examples, realize is not true. A misreading on my part I think.

> The problem in 2019, is that people are trying to do end-runs around Freedom of Speech not through argument, but through reputation smearing and de-platforming. This is absolutely not a new phenomenon. "Red scare" anyone? Fre

I smoked for 7 years, the quit, then picked it back up 4 years later for 5 more years. I didn't really meet the criteria outlined in this article of x "pack years and over 55". I have read that quitting before 40 reduces your

Micah True in 2012. Also note that for marathons the number one cause of death is cardiac arrest. Now that is not explicitly what OP said, but you can see how one could draw a valid conclusion from that observation. I don't think that

Anecdotally, as an ex-smoker who quit after my mother died from lung cancer, I spoke to my doctor about screening. He did a lot of dismissing and hand waving about it. It upset me greatly at the time. This article explains it all well enoug

Probably more like if Spotify became a record label, controlled the entire process of an artist and only allowed access to artist's songs on their platform. It's not just the media that is changing. The entire process is disrupted

I agree. I'm not sure some people understand the distinction. Hallucinations are really just the input, in this case a faulty input. Delusions are faulty conclusions. You can have delusions without hallucinations, and hallucinations ca

I'd really like to see this tested somehow, because I have friends along the political spectrum that complain of the same thing. I'm not sure how google is somehow hindering results for left, right and middle.

It might seem pithy, but my wife has a small internet based business and uses facebook as a login for one of the sites she sells on. So, today instead of being able to autofill labels directly for shipping, she had to hand type addresses in

Interesting. I haven't used any chat clients in my personal life for 7 years or so. I still have to use whatever my job prescribes, which is currently Skype.

Based no my limited knowledge in this field, I believe that is because it is an enclosed and controlled system. You can increase all variables (CO2, water, nutrients) together; whereas, a plant in "the wild" cannot. Most things ac

Interesting to see point 3 of the "Resolution' in 1969. "We oppose the establishment of mass data banks which pose a threat to our privacy and concentrate power in the hands of a few."

I think you assume, and rightfully so based on how people discuss this topic, that 'afford' is a black and white numbers game when it comes to mortgages. It's not. I can clearly 'afford' a home mortgage worth the am

Good question. What is your expectation? I found a link that seems to suggest that people do want them (at about 2% of cars sold), maybe just not at the level you expect? They are typically more expensive to buy. People aren't good wit
