As much as I detest censorship it seems to me that there's a good argument to be made for censoring pornography, or even outlawing it altogether. I believe pornography is a destructive force in modern society. If modern leaders have (m

Typical Zed, but reading Max's email I have to agree it's quite offensive.

"... the Israeli method of doing airport screening is to be admired" Well that depends on who you ask. Palestinians or even people with distant Arab roots who are subject to racial profiling, or even people suspected of being, god

Putting aside the condescending tone of the article, the actual argument represents the typical Israeli knee-jerk reaction to terrorism, and the absolutely myopic, black-and-white, I-don't-give-a-shit-about-anyone-else's-pain-beca

The idea is interesting, but I would imagine you need to take into account various forms in which people might want to express their intent. For example, "train from A to B" instead of "I need a train from A to B", or &q

Funny how things change. This kind of bullshit was developed into an art form in communist regimes. Does this say something about the future of capitalism?

I believe it's the same in every field of work. Even working in the garden or doing some fixing around the house. I'm now approaching 40 and find myself much more physically able than I was 10 years ago, mainly because I'm more patient and

Secular thinking can also become a folly, just like any religious thinking. For example, believing that anything and everything can be measured in numbers, or refusing to acknowledge any phenomenon which cannot be explained scientifically.

I couldn't agree more. There's a saying in Hebrew: "There are no bad kids, there are only kids who feel bad."

It cannot be denied, and to my understanding most ADHD research seems to support this, that the social environment and family circumstances have a great influence on the child's behavior. As a parent to two pretty active pre-schoolers, I ca

Another pontification from Saint John: "They want everything; their ambition is boundless." I fail to see how is this different from other big players: Facebook, Micrsoft, Amazon, or even Holy Apple: each wants a piece of the action, and ea

If this became a real problem, wouldn't the pragmatic solution be to distribute the load across multiple machines? I fail to see how handling 10M connections on a single machine has any merit, taking into account reliability for example, ap

Many modern digital tuners offer the ability to tune by various historical temperaments, making the use of historical tuning both easy and fast. However, it is important IMO to understand how the different tuning methods came about, the m

Am I the only one who thinks Gruber is greatly overrated? OK, we get it, Apple's on top and anyone who thinks different (no pun intended) is an asshole/douchbag. And again with how Eric Schmidt "wasn't exactly being honest" etc. My own TLDR

I had a lasik surgery about 12 years ago. First I had to undergo an eye examination, then a few weeks later I came in for the surgery, which took I guess no more than 15 minutes. The procedure itself was quite simple: after applying anesthe

Maybe you should take a business course in order to develop your abilities. I believe it's better to try to realize your dreams and face difficulties (or even failure) than to take the safe road and 10 years later be sorry you didn't follow
