what does the name mean? the text at the top, especially the bold stuff, is too prominent and takes too much vertical space. you don't want new users to read that.

Misleading title. Article doesn't answer the question. Just says some people are trying to look into it, tells stories, mentions occasional guesses.

Could you explain what was moronic about my comment, or withdraw your insult from applying to me?

McCain is opposed terrorists more than Obama. And more trustyworthy on Israel and Iran issues. When people say they want to kill us, it's stupid not to take that seriously.

I know you didn't mean to imply to opposite, but you did . Someone who's so busy wouldn't have time for obsessing. As you said.

LPTS said pg-obession is bad and made the point in terms of what pg himself wouldn't have done. you agreed that pg himself wouldn't have done it. therefore, like it or not, you agree with LPTS.

it's funny how you agree with LPTS's main point but also insulted him.

The image looks wacky in Safari if you roll your mouse up and down. It does partial rendering of it, but what renders first varies. Firefox is boring and doesn't do partial rendering. I uploaded to youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d

Haha, yes, well, I'm not sure that's an accomplishment you'd want to brag about either :)

sharing your every accomplishment since getting a gold star for "most cooperative" in preschool. A "most cooperative" star in preschool is a negative not a positive. Being especially obedient especially early should not impress anyone.

I dislike the collectivist slant in this (and similar) pieces. It's written as if 'female entrepreneur' is a category one can reasonably make generalizations about. In fact it is a very diverse category and the generalizations presented are

Our goal isn't to be the most Christian social news site. That's not how we want to be separated.

Of course. I am saying there is an argument in the book, which I don't want to type in (it's too long).

Since you believe you are irrational and make decisions based on bias, and Bayesian anti-science positions forgive you for this, whereas I do not (for example, science says the source of an idea is irrelevant, so you are wrong to be concern

You are presenting an explanation of why I should discount explanations in general. Isn't that a contradiction?

I have already seen that. It has the error I mentioned. As for raw QM, it corresponds to reality, but people are right to also want to know what it means. And we do know. MWI is a good explanation of QM. There's no need to be an instrumenta

You seem to be referring to Kuhn's theory of Scientific Revolutions, which is false, as explained in The Fabric of Reality chapter 13. BTW Bayesian statistics as a replacement for science is not being accepted because it's no good. It's n

People are very good at fooling themselves. However, there are certain traditions which contain knowledge of how to do better, and how to think more rationally. People utilizing this knowledge have made considerable progress. The best examp

I guess it varies by when and what you compare. e.g. http://www.macworld.com/article/49403/2006/02/pricecompariso... has the macbook pro doing well. or this http://kb.wisc.edu/showroom/page.php?id=3045 has 150 more for macbook (not pro)
