We have plenty of strong evidence for the safety of tons of things. My ancestors have been consuming cow's milk, mache, and wine for thousands of years. If these things were not safe for consumption, we wouldn't be consuming them

Can you name some specific sites where this is an issue for you? I've had nothing but good experiences buying online, in the US at least. Every single site I've bought from has the same boring and functional checkout experience, w

The social sciences are not science and good riddance to them. They are religious rituals with only the trappings of the scientific method. These rituals are often purely performative, but the outcomes can be useful for effecting political

Could it be that animals, like humans, aren't just sacks of chemicals? Could it be they're not computer programs, but that they are, in fact, animals? This is why I despise practically every discussion of "why" when it c

If you compare the Assad regime to your own western country, you'd think what happened here was a good thing. But that's the wrong comparison to make. The rosier Dutch government won't be taking over control here. The rebels

Trust your instincts and a grandfather's wisdom. Don't waste time reading anything. Eschew any and all academic or scientific takes on parenting. Fathering is like breathing. We've been doing it without thinking about it for

I think it'd be a shame if engineers were the ones to make the decision in this case. The decision needs to be made by people with a more serious understanding of risk and fragility, like the military generals, and especially by the pe

It's fine to criticize facets of a culture, but this isn't a very intelligent critique, it's just rude. On the "war" thing - the culture of many Americans has a martial bent to it, which is why things like "war
