I'm assuming then that the other birds are freeloaders.

You seem like the the annoyance here. You post half of the replies on this site with sometimes conflicting opinions! It's as if you have a multiple personality disorder.

Precisely! Wear I work, I face no discrimination because I always don formal where.

Another thing is that this sort of thing has been tested and quantified. Of course, any study that touches politics is controversial (ie., upsets people's long held convictions/prejudices/biases), but this sort of discrimination is out there and has been documented. I guess whether the reverse happens (this whole "privilege" thing) would be a nice thing study, imho.

First job vs 6 years. Sorry bro, I think in the albeit-contrived world of anecdote grading, he wins.

Take an exception of anecdote over study, then fuel emotion.

This is not a problem if we do one thing: if we report education rankings of individual states in comparisons with other countries and not average over the US as whole; this is in line with the whole "state's rights" infatuation we tend to have.

This will be a good test for that theory, for sure.

Your privacy concerns are valid, but how is disliking technology for technology's sake, which is something I think that all nerds do, nerdy? Sometimes, this site confuses me.

Did you read TFA? Or did you choose sentences to read randomly? Those we're quoted as the results that worked. In fact, here is the original paragraph:

Two that didn't were about social priming, one was currency priming, in which participants supported what I assume is the current state of capitalism after seeing money, and the other, priming feelings of patriotism with a flag. Moreover, both original authors we're positive about it:

There you go, quoting the article directly since you can't be bothered to read it. It is true that they apparently chose what some consider to be important effects and the evidence against social priming is upsetting to some. Still, the fact that verification actually happened and people are happy about it shows science is alive and kicking.

Anyway, another cool thing about this study should be that it uses this thing, the open science framework which I haven't heard about until today, but seems pretty cool.

I know this is a repeated meme, and I, myself, taught myself C when I was 14. However, I've never seen any statistics about this, I wonder if this really is the usual case.

Whether it is a problem and whether France of Switzerland can come out of these laws unscathed (or bettered), we in America obviously can't hope to do the same. We can't even copy the rest of the modern world and implement a decent healthcare system, so who thinks we could solve this issue?

The other competitor which shall not be named has a better method of "public image management." It's simple: with each of their devices they sell, it comes equipped with a state-of-the-art RDF generator that turns the purchasers into fully obedient drones who will take to the internet forums and defend the company themselves! Since these drones are now merely subservient beings to the corporate will, they don't need to be paid; in fact, the effects of RDF ensure that they will throw themselves at the stores the next time the company delivers a new product, even for the most incremental and mundane updates! The shills will pay you!
