You can still buy the dvds and watch them. You can't tell TV stations how to do their programming.
Quite the opposite. Look up Bayesian inference.
My back hurt until I started hitting the gym and doing muscle strength exercises.
Not everything can or has to be proven with research. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, claiming a second monitor helps is hardly extraordinary.
Now you've shown them.
People want sane defaults
Does studying usability automatically make you right?
Yeah I think 16mil dollar covered that
How did we get into a Malthusian dystopia all of the sudden? Please just follow your ideals, cancel your internet subscription and go live under a rock.
First of all, you now suddenly went from "wealthy family" to "wealthy slacker". Second, a slacker who spends money for goods and services is obviously better for the economy that somebody who doesn't.
edit: The other way around of course
I don't see how multi-generational welfare families are any morally worse than multi-generational wealthy families, yet tons more complain about the former than they do about the latter. Idle is idle. Both are a net drain on society, but in different ways.
The former pay taxes, the latter don't. I don't know what kind of arithmetic or economics you are using, but how are wealthy families a "net drain"?
Maybe to be physically close to Wall Street computers.
I liked this one:
Pyongyang, September 28 (KCNA) -- On April 15, Juche 86 (1997) leader Kim Jong Il inspected an army unit defending Height 1211 in the frontline area.
The officials accompanying him were worried about his safety because of the rugged road to the height and a thick fog.
When the car carrying him reached the foot of the mountain, the fog suddenly disappeared with the mountain road clearly seen.
The officials were relieved at the phenomenon, but still afraid that his appearance on the height might draw the enemy's observation.
When the leader climbed to the top of the mountain, however, the ridge was covered with clouds all of a sudden.
As he reached the observation post on the ridge, the enemy side was brightly illuminated by the sun.
The officials marveled at the wonder of nature.
After acquainting himself with the situation of the enemy side 1 000 meters away from the observation post, he gave important tasks to increase the unit's combat efficiency in every way and turn the height into an impregnable fortress. -0-
