I didn't think of Digg nor Reddit really in the same was as I looked at Delicious. Delicious was where I'd shove articles and the like which I found interesting, but wouldn't revisit often enough to warrant space on my browser's bookmark bar.

Digg and Reddit were places for 'news' and such. You'd put things you'd suspect others would like, as opposed to say, bookmarking the javadoc to a plugin API, or a deal on a particular gadget you've been looking at. I didn't think of those two as a bookmarking service.

While all you people are harping about educated people being less religious, had it occurred to you that educated people grow up in an environment much less likely to be touched or haunted by death?

The inputs taken from each source are unven, and yet he's comparing them by percentages of the whole. If I were to make a study of 4 men and 2 women taking a test, and then complain that 66% of errors made by all of them were by men, then that would be misleading.

This certainly gives a new meaning to "no skin off my nose!"

Correlation may not imply causation, but it certainly does waggle its eyebrows meaningfully in causations direction.

Isn't there a species of south american lizards that's entirely female? The don't exactly reproduce asexually though. They need some dry-humping action to get the process started.

Isn't there a species of lizards which are entirely female? They don't exactly reproduce asexually, if I recall, since they apparently need lesbian lizard sex to trigger the weird baby-lizard making process.

That sounds like something that Vince Offer could get behind.

How do you measure risk?

If a domain is 100% infected with software that cleans up your inbox for you more "risky" than one 50% infected with software that goes and registers you as a sex offender, steals your credit card numbers and posts your porn habits on the web?

Just try to imagine, for a moment, my disappointment when I realized this was not an open source 3d rendering of a comic-book version of Jesus SuperChrist.

As exciting as this is, I would take this news... ... with a grain of salt.

You either not have been to a University, were incredibly unfortunate in your professors, or are a classic example of 'sour grapes.'

Nearly all of the professors in my field of study became professors after having worked and pioneered in their respective fields of expertise. While they may not all be the most engaging of lecturers, it's awe-inducing to hear them talk about their own work and hear the passion that it brought to them.
