Comment Re:Countless science papers confirm average IQ Low (Score 1) 185

What you wrote, Mr. AC, is just plain stupid. Good nutrition allows the brain to properly and fully develop. Poor nutrition prevents the same. IQ cannot be measured at birth. Any human given proper nutrition from birth will achieve their full intellectual potential when provided a good education in a mentally stimulating environment. IQ test results go up and down somewhat depending on the degree of alertness of the person taking the test. You sure wrote a lot of words to present so little of substance. Now, go eat some veggies, run a few laps, and then think about your state of mind. It could use some improvement.

Comment Field of study (Score 1) 1032

I question the choice of field of study. A Master of Philosophy isn't suited for much other than a part time teaching job. These days a PhD is important in a liberal arts field. I looked into the fields that were most likely to keep jobs in America. not replace people with robots, and make sure I'd enjoy it. It is unwise to chose a field solely on enjoyment. Employment needs to be considered if one is to make their way in the world. I went into the coatings industry and worked up the ladder. My advice is to choose wisely what you plan to do for the rest of your life. .

Too many corporations think that they are the most important thing on earth. Anything they do is fine and for the benefit of all mankind. They need to get the word out, as to how great they are, in the form of ads which no doubt you've been waiting anxiously to receive. They need more revenue to pad exec's bonuses. So we get the much appreciated third party paid ads which inform us of deals that we otherwise might not be aware of.. Stop it you jerks. You're not that important to us at all.

According to the original article Netflix traffic was up slightly. "Overall in the full report, Netflix remained the clear leader on North American fixed networks (as opposed to mobile) during peak usage times, up slightly to 36.5 percent of downstream traffic, with YouTube again a distant second at 15.6 percent." Do you have a link that shows the number of subscribers leaving Netflix? It sure looks like they're doing just fine based on the linked report.

Comment Not scientific (Score 1) 226

This article is more of an opinion piece than anything else, lacking any evidence of faster than light travel in a vacuum. Light that moves through expanding space is not moving faster than c. It's simply being moved with space itself. The article reads like it was written by someone that normally covers the police beat and now is appearing amazed by science. Click-bait headlines bring in ad dollars though.
