Me, but they have your data anyway cause of your ip. It's more so that they won't suddenly start posting my spotify playlists or whatever.
But why did people leave cities to begin with? Street crime was an important factor.
The situation is analogous to the difference between the immune system of someone with limited exposure to all the normal diseases of western civ (f.ex. theo-facists, nazis, white supremacists) and someone brought up…
I think he means to say he's one of the people who believe differences in measured iq scores between ethnic groups reflect underlying genetic potential for intelligence. Some different perspectives on the issue:…
This is a great idea. Probably doesn't require any groundbreaking technology either. Dear internet, please make this. EDIT: An iphone app that let's people call and text each other as their profile name (anonymously)…
What makes you think the bathroom practices are unrelated to communism? It's called totalitarianism for a reason...
Why are you being so unpleasant? Viewing a desire for bathroom privacy as reactionary is characteristic of the whole set of ideals related to the new soviet man. "Who needs a "1"? The voice of a "1" is thinner than a…
CAVEAT: I'm only familiar with Marx from second hand sources. I'm inclined to give Chomsky the benefit of doubt here. As a small l libertarian I can totally relate to the idea of ruling elites who falsely claim to share…
Helianthus is right. There's something about nerd culture that makes an inflexible and dogmatic adherence to the current intellectual fads very common. Curiously, the most hilariously unpc writers I've read do or have…
How many average human lifespans is 1.6 billion hours?
Nope, that "we could buy sweden" stuff is just embarrassingly boorish nationalism, or a joke at the expense of boorish nationalists. Everything being equal (and it pretty much is) Norwegians will be marginally richer…
Norway's not a member of the EU but it's still part of Schengen. I bet the right to live in Paris/Berlin/Amsterdam/etc. will remain yours irrespective of what happens to UK EU membership.
Not so fast there: "On 1 November 1993, under the third Delors Commission, the Maastricht Treaty became effective, creating the European Union with its pillar system including foreign and home affairs alongside the…
You seem completely clueless. Chinese dissidents are "disappeared" for far less than what Assange has done. Tianmen protesters where slaughtered.
That's not the same thing as peaceful protests by students and professionals. Noam Chomsky (!) is on the record saying the US is a very free country. Politically, that is, by which he means the scope of permissible…
You could feed the us population with income from capital gains and corporate taxes alone. Also, in western countries large percentages of workers are employed by the government, their organizations are competing in a…
What kind of backgrounds do they have? CS or STEM degrees at ivy league or similar schools? Does people with liberal arts degrees and a finance MBA get those kinds of jobs? (Assuming they can program.)
Isn't a perfect math score very hard to get, something like the upper 1%ile? Do you know your IQ? I'm scandinavian and could do a traditional finance/consulting/management/accounting thing in my home country but the…
Millions of people would risk death for a chance at making 3usd an hour. People still die because they can't buy food. If westerners isolate themselves economically from the worlds poor in a misguided effort to remain…
Yep, I've cancelled digital audiobooks from audible (owned by amazon, if memory serves me right) and even books sent to the wrong address in europe (full refund).
I don't disagree, but you have to remember ... some people that supported stuff like the weathermen* in their twenties now have tenure, cushy government jobs etc. A lot of these are now "moderate" social-democrats,…
