The source: "Haidt's main scientific contributions come from the psychological field of moral foundations theory,[2] which attempts to explain the evolutionary origins of human moral reasoning on the basis of innate, gut feelings rather than logic and reason." Sounds like he's taken a gut stance to something to cash in. It's a shame NPR is so Boomer focused on what sells instead of real science.

As a working class guy, i'm busy as hell. So when the school tells me it's not required until April 17 then expect low participation. I'm making an effort to spend an hour a day with each of my three kids. However, until this gets 'real' it is facetious to claim only half of students are participating. We're participating as much, as im willing to, until this becomes required. Take your survey data at a later date

Having been to rural Japan three times in the last decade, if you go there you'd understand why. Unlike here in America where the lines are linear with the minimal amount of crossing, in Japan wires are strung up like a crazy web. Especially in small towns the power and telecommunication wires are just run every which way to Sunday. They are extreamily intrusive to the eye so as an artist it's not really something you would gloss over... Because it's a very prevalent part of the landscape. As an artist I would almost always keep a picket fence or birdhouse in a landscape painting. In Japan they keep the power lines and use the interplay on how all those wires alter the visual landscape.

I see plenty of senior staff members, well and truly over-the-hill types, who are just as bad about using their phones in meetings. 20 somethings are going to take their lead on how to act in a meeting from their peers. If you clearly set an example of what is OK and not OK in a meeting, this isn't a problem but many Managers don't bother to manage. Do yourself a favor and don't bring your phone into a meeting, at all. If you really MUST be connected, weight what is more important to your personal reputation at that moment. Disrupting the meeting and taking a communication, or realizing part of your job is to be fully committed to the place you're at.

I was going to comment and point people to this thread, since many of you have pointed out exactly why this problem exists. However when I went to find out how wide this press release was distributed I found it was just some hack job done by a PR firm. This never made it into any kind of mainsteam media, just trade publications/websites. Raytheon might as well be shouting into the wind.

Catchup my ass, who wants a second rate product. You've tried and failed, now go back to the creative types in your heard and make something amazing.

It's new to us but it's old to them.

Half Dalek, Half Timelord! Time stream cross-species re-integration! Just kill off Dr Who and make the show about his kid. Then stick it in the Firefly universe for half the season until it learns how to use a Tardis properly. SHOVE IN ALL THE OPTIONS!

Why should academics get any kind of 'special' professional treatment on this issue? Just because the university didn't enforce this rule before doesn't mean you get to whine over it now. I work for a national manufacturing corporation, as a designer, but I know that everything I create 'on the job' belongs to the company. That's why they pay you, to provide the talent, to be a resource they can draw from. If you want to develop online courses and keep the rights, do it outside of your day job as an independent contractor. Please come to grips with the fact that you are not a 'special' individual just because you teach kids all day. I think my work is pretty awesome, but I have no illusions that down the road the company may decide to change it to suit a new need or political strategy. That's why I have a separate, personal business, so that I can develop my own work without fear of copyright issues. Take what you've learned and move on.

I'd like to see this set as a prequel, an aging Arnold is the template for the Terminators but realizes too late that Skynet is taking control.

It's not what you can think of its what you never considered this device could be used for. Thinking just how people use thier phones, imagine something you didn't have to hold or prop up that can stream video or click pictures whenever you want. A family member could wear it and stream a funeral for others who couldn't attend. Parents could take video of thier kids while changing a baby while fending off a rouge dodgeball. Journalists could unobtrusively observe an interact with groups and people in a more natural way. Mugging victims could set thier glasses to shoot pictures of thier assailants that would immediately upload to an off-site server. You could play back last nights drunken revelry because you lost track around 2am and your buddy said that girl was way uglier than you thought she was. I could go on all day with examples but for the most part it's the amazing uses that an average person comes up with that justify the technology.

Rhino is what I learned on in college, back in 2000, it's got the best user interface (in my opinion) and still has professional level tools that simpler programs (Blender, SketchUp) do not.

According to the dictionary a moon is: A natural satellite revolving around a planet. So how can Pluto have moons if it's not a planet anymore? Is there a more scientific definition of a moon, because I think we're just naming an asteroid at this point.
