In what way have the victims failed to fight for themselves? The beach access issue is kind of a thing all up and down the California coast.

No offense intended, but that's kind of blaming the victim on a whole other level.

Nothing in our evolutionary history as social apes prepared us for that.

Or there was a last minute reprieve after the article was posted. Not everything is malicious, friend.

I, too, grow weary of the increasingly low signal to grouch ratio.

Not to mention that many of us have a "better" idea what to do with 100 million dollars and would gladly trade some our founder's equity for the opportunity!

I would advise reading the paper, if possible. It seems that this is the Economist's hot take from reading a few of the figures rather than the authors' conclusions.

Link to abstract: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/09567976188062... At first glance, it seems like the Economist article is drawing broader and more politically charged conclusions than the orig

If you find a prosecutor in nature, you should contact Sir David Attenborough. That would have the makings of an extraordinary documentary!

I mean, isn't morality all about doing the right thing in the face of perverse incentives? If status gains can be used to excuse anything we do, where will it all end?

In my case, I felt that I desperately wanted to work hard, but getting into a state of flow was rare, and as deadlines approached I often felt like I was pushing an unstable boulder uphill, like Sisyphus. This caused, and sometimes still c

It sounds like an interesting experiment, though I agree with other posters about the age cap. A school named 42 that would not accept Douglas Adams as a student, were he still around. Ha!

Do you really want to do CS? If not, that is OK! There is no One True Path (TM) to geek bliss. Is there anything else you'd like to do? Maybe something that's more of a technician role, where you use tech rather than designing

That's fine. Your conscience will be clear, and if you have a winner, you should attract other money. The biggest drawback is if your project is easy to replicate, in which case you have to ask if it should attract smart money in the

SA (and Russia, to an extent) is a different best than the rest, though, is it not? When people say SA, they mean money owned or controlled by the royal family, who are directly analogous to an organized crime syndicate. Whereas, there are

This article, and the Barnes and Simon article it is critiquing, are not exactly casual reading, friend. Are you the author of this article? Could you break it down a bit for an interested outsider? In particular, if the EEA is not so imp

I have several objections to the paper and to some of the responses here; in fact, it's really got me hot under the collar. It is not clear that this study can support such sweeping claims. Further, due to the fast-moving nature of t
