No respectable author uses that term so it doesn't deserve a mention. It's on the same pop-psych wavelength as "supernova empath" or "twin flame".

The content filters are pretty strict and it doesn't seem to be trained on human genetic research. Seems like the only damage this tool can do is by making fake articles on light-hearted topics!

I think the only problem with this is that that Apple permanently switched to higher resolution screens, text looks awful at 1080p since Apple dropped font anti aliasing. High DPI screens are a requirement.

Nazis tried to use pseudoscience to exterminate everyone that didn't have an ancestry lineage to the sunken city of Atlantis. You are spouting a ridiculous myth, eugenics has never been scientific, it's all about trauma and lies.

No, it hasn't happened on multiple occasions. It happened one time thousands of years ago in one region of the Earth. I must remind you that the industrial revolution and the social ills it brought happened more recently. We aren'

That's kind of assuming a lot. What if instead, in a hypothetical future, we all collectively discovered that one's efficacy in today's society depends on their ability to match their brain type to their job and certain types

I could see how living next to a major road or having a noisy environment could disturb a child's sleep at night. Perhaps it is the role of noisy cars that disturb the sleep that triggers these changes? I was a strange child that coul

In some branches of psychology, they use term "apoptosis" as a metaphor for widespread self-destruction [1], because such a collapse in social teamwork appears to almost perfectly mirror programmed cell death - as if social collap

Yes, the banking industry won't do much to prevent Aunt Senile from wiring $80k to Nigeria, although I doubt they make it easy. Hell, I couldn't even phone-authorize a wire of 8k to buy a car two states over, but I guess that

How would one "accidentally" wire transfer millions of dollars? At $10k in America, KYC and AML laws force banks to step through extra layers of verification to wire such amount. It's virtually impossible for someone to acc

This industry relies on self-reporting, there's no sky police, so if there's a deviation a report needs to be voluntarily written up and submitted either by the controller or by the pilot. It's customary for pilots to self-r

That's interesting! My situation is the exact opposite, there's a very tight positive correlation between good mental health and reduced gut symptoms. e.g. my gut problems completely disappear when I'm driving or hiking, my

For me, the thing that sucks most about IBS is the medication. The link between mind/body/pain/inflammation is pretty obvious when you start taking strong anti-inflammatory drugs, at least for me! Evidently, everyone in my f

I disagree, the goal of therapy (should) be to make the patient more self-efficacious, NOT about making them happy or instilling the right mental gymnastics to feel OK about their situation. The more self-efficacious a person is, the more

Technically the code being uploaded is compiled from C++ as the rest of the project is written in C++. Kind of similar to the article but in my case all I'm doing is calling a bunch of C library functions from the shellcode.
