Why call that a 'bias'? If anything the acquisition of more knowledge via scientific methods is itself the prevention of a bias. This might be worth a...
For most scientific studies published in journals it requires a link (or a subscription). Not everyone can access these links (or subscriptions)... th...
If the outcome is 'chaos' (assuming we don't have chaos prior to the 'addition of chaos') why blame the car? This kind of reads like 'why not ban hamm...
Exactly... and science does this on a regular basis. That's what is completely missing in religious belief. Science (which is a process... it's not a ...
That is somewhat helpful, but isn't it running the risk of cherry picking the premises and hinting toward pleading a special case (as you probably kno...
Minds opened or closed... https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=RFO6ZhUW38w If anyone can show me one example In the history of the world Of a sing...
Is the answer supposed to be something easy to understand, perhaps a list of a few factors or a single factor? What if this is an answer that continue...
This was easier (and perhaps 'nicer') to portray it in this manner than attempting to post a can of farts to represent a series of unrelated premises ...
This basically explains all of my interactions in social networks... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVJ6ZVSQJwM Tending my fruit, tending my fruit Ah...
I totally understand. My wife looks at what I'm doing here in PF and her reactions are usually as follows. "Why are you bothering replying to this obv...
I find this to be a bit odd. If I want to be lonely all I need to do is attend an event that my sister hosts or attends. These are usually events with...
Have you watched 'The 39 Steps' or 'The Trouble with Harry' or 'Notorious'? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBcNfAcU-Lc https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
At 2:38... probably one of the best laughs I've heard. SMOOTH... best with the company of la fée verte (in spite of it coming from the Austrian Alps),...
That's great! It seems familiar, but I can't remember the band or the track. Reminds me of a bit of Siouxsie Sioux with Soft Cell mixed in, so I guess...
Yes, but limiting it to an introduction to logic, focus on the first 9 rules of inference, an introduction to common fallacies and possibly branch int...
OH... and I have a copy of this one too, but I bought it in Paris in 1979. My first trip to Europe with the High School Art Club. /uploads/resized/fil...
Something a bit more recent, but still from the land of beer, pommes frites and chocolate: If only for this few lines: "I seem to have a history At mi...
Indeed the LP. One of the few windows to the world where I grew up was a record store that had kind of a 'High Fidelity' vibe that was 40 kilometres a...
That's just super! I love this sort of thing, but I fear it really isn't exactly 'deep', but I don't mind. I'm nearly inspired to post something from ...
You just made my day! (and my wife will probably want to kill you) For me Belgium is a hot bed for music I love that I feel no one I know has ever hea...
I posted a Mashup with Led Zeppelin in the other music thread (to anger the purists probably), but I do have one more that I find to be brilliant... ....
Clearly one of the best things and clearly one of the worst things I've ever heard in my entire life... ... how to be brilliant and stupid that the sa...
My version had the same conviction, but the comic element of simply the wrong accent through and through... like this version: I apologize for this, b...
BRILLIANT!!! Oh, how I wish I was a polyglot, but I do have moxie. True Story: This doesn't belong in this section, but once in a Karaoke bar in Paris...
I'll check into this, as I have always been a bit intrigued by futurology. Be it Asimov, Huxley, McLuhan, Roddenberry, Orwell, Philip K Dick, Tesla, S...
It makes me wonder if the only change that has occurred in recent times is that the pretense of concern for the sick and elderly has been dropped? Ind...
WOW! If I have to explain it... well... ... that might explain it. There are cases in which folks become so full of themselves that there really isn't...
A long time back I had a short bout with this sort of torture. It's difficult to believe but up until 33 years ago I was on my way to become a Christi...
XTC began more in New Wave and a bit of 70's post-punk bridging into psychedelic pop and art rock ended with a symphony orchestra. This band has proba...
I thought about putting this in the 'deep' section, but maybe it's only me... I just love how Danny Elfman can bash both sides at the same time. https...

Music I played to death as a youth... that pissed off my sister and she'd leave me alone. At the time that made it work for me twice as well as hoped....
Good to hear, as it's usually just me. OK... I can work with that in this context. What if one has reached a point that a paid job is unnecessary, as ...
Funny thing here is that we totally agree, yet differ in many aspects. Quite curious... I'm curious as to what you see the cause(s) for this shift mig...
This is very interesting. Question that immediate hit me are: - How do we define productivity? - At what point can we consider a youth to be productiv...
To apply logic doesn't one need premises? Aren't premises the content from which one works with (like the raw materials to build something) by applyin...
