I'm shocked there has been no mention of The Economic Laws of Scientific Research. Terence Kealey makes a compelling argument that government funding more than crowds out private funding for Science. I.e., we are worse…
The risk of losing money in a savings account is not zero. By losing I mean, losing its purchasing power. Banks have repeatedly gone bust throughout all of history, in all countries. But there is such a thing as deposit…
This isn't the funeral for the fella. Being able to discuss taboo subjects is what makes it great to be an intellectual after all - why are they taboo? is the reason a good or illogical? In this case, death is bad, very…
I hope he had a cryonics contract. .... In reading the above, some people might think it insensitive to 'peddle' this here, and I almost censored myself because of that. But that's not helpful at all. People are dying…

Reuse of old code, familiarity with API's (other's old code).
Except that the more you exercise, the more your body hungers for more calories. The homeostasis theory of the body makes far more sense than the current thermodynamic view of eating; that change in weight is equal to…
The line should be more "most people don't understand what kids can do".
And now we have power problems, so you can't have everything on at once. Such is life.
The hypothesis though, is to remove the emotional part of the memory, which this does seem to be doing a reasonable job of doing it. Much better than bilateral lesions to the Amygdala!
