This is simply not true, some people can completely reverse it, but depends on genetics. You can go through this channel if you are interested, search for "hair", there are before/afters:…
It's a fallacy to say that this can beat hand-optimized C++. If you were to write the equivalent code in hand-optimized C++ you could in 99% get at least a small speedup if not a larger one. It's as if you are comparing…
We just have to be careful so that "the cure doesn't become deadlier than the disease": in case some magnetic particles are left in it could cause greater issues perhaps than plastic. We can't just assume that "yeah…
To be honest if you know C#, Java or ObjectiveC you already know the core 90% of C++. The main thing left is understanding pointers vs references vs stack vs heap allocation (egthe instance.x vs instance->x difference)…
This will be a failure of epic proportions. Due to the complexity of the real world we can't even predict weather for 2 days in advance and you they think they can predict the world... The sad part is that they will…

You belive that he is forcing himself to "be productive" and to "work so much". What you have missed is that he loves what he does. It's not that "he is so disciplined": it's that he lives for this kind of things that…
You can easily demolish the entire "atheism is rational" argument very quickly: An atheist claims "there is no God" or that eg "there is no Christian God". But the atheist made a fatal mistake here: he mistook absence…
And what if the other guy is wrong and he is attacking me and trying to get me fired regardless of the fact that he is wrong? You fail to understand that these people cannot be reasoned with. It doesn't matter if you…
This is the most important part that needs to be understood: Don’t back down. Don’t apologize. Don’t make clarifications, and don’t try to appease the mob. All of these will only be taken as concessions, and embolden…
East German commies would be proud to have you. Nothing says dictatorship better than having a ill-defined concept such as hate-speech combines with the power of the ban hammer. Please not that if you downvote this…
"When you know it isn't true". Really? Teenagers are addicted to social media and adults get addicted to news media. Both are based on fear mongering and the fear of missing out. Do you not see that underneath the…
Lets not pretend that the current news media is any different. There is no objective fact reporting, only fear mongering.
The hyperbole is not absurd and is there for a reason: it is meant to show people the arrogance of scientists and their inability to comprehend that messing with complex systems has unpredictable consequences that…
We cannot do this in isolation because we never know if that would eg affect bird population or if we geneticaly modify mosquitos that can have unintendend consequences that no study can predict. Do not fool yourself…
“These were otherwise healthy, hard-working people,” Healthy and obese cannot exist in the same sentence. Also what does "hard working" have anything to do it? As if their hard work will offset some karmic debt that…
You are implying you can mimic all the required processes and not end up with too much or too little macro/micro nutrients. This is not possible due to nature's complexity. Until we will be able to use nanomachines to…
This might protect children for a while but sooner or later they will become addicted to it. We will have to modify/add this to our educational system, there is no other way around it or parents will have to teach…
Why must every new language use a completely unique syntax? This is so tiring...why can't they just stick to syntax that everyone knows...each one has to reinvent random new syntax and destroy old conventions that…
And it's humans who decide what "science" is based on their incorrect p value selection and corruption and mishandling of statistics even if they mean good.
This is a naive argument: the "X is a private company and can do anything they want" is completely wrong when you can affect hundreds of millions of people with a few click through your platform. Once a company can…
How can you be so bad at PR & Customer Support in 2021? The person in charge of this should really go on Facebook every once in a while to see what can happen...
This. Destroy natural environment so that only yours can be used.
Kids are exposed to war, violence and action everywhere. The media being the most shewd example of this: pretending to have a moral highground while causing massive fear and outrage because that is the only reason…
Reminds of that meme that I can't find now: It shows how every open source proponent dreams how many people collaborate as a group on the project. In reality it's just one guy that makes 99.9% of all commits and without…
