Also I don't think the exact day of birth being Tuesday makes one bit of difference to the gender. For example, if you were to say the known boy was born crying, and the chance of this is 70%, it doesn't affect the gender of the other child

In Emacs you often need to make Lisp macros for customizations. I love Emacs and have been using it daily for the last few years, but it's not newbie friendly. Making small tweaks can require extensive Google searching.

Those 'pseudo-games' keep my wheelchair bound grandmother occupied (and possibly even entertained) throughout her day. They provide value to some people.

It's interesting because throughout history nearly all tasks have been mundane, and it's only recently that this has changed. But smart kids often feel entitled to not do the mundane stuff.

The way I see it is the neurons in your head are going to do what they're wired to do. You can't change physical law, and any amount of success or failure won't change your brain structure. Your perception of the world is essentially consta

I honestly don't think this is feasible without regular expressions. There's very many minor details that make data mining work which have to be custom tailored to different solutions.
