Re: Request: Who can turn bad quality recording into arrange Hey Dustnite. My guess is it would take a lot of fiddling, because the signal to noise ratio is really tough on this one. But I welcome all efforts, so If you pm me your email (or if you know a simple upload site where I don't have...

Oh boy, it's been a while since I've been here. But I distinctly remember some people who were very good at music and editing. It pains me to say, but ah, here goes. See, I have a really crappy mobile phone recording of a semi-improv gig I did a few years ago, and this guy I had the pleasure of...

Taking a "naturally grown" language and trying to make it logical or even consistent is a sisyphus task. But it would be an interesting challenge to create a language that is not only internally consistent, logical and unambiguous but also efficient (easily comprehensible).

You elegantly avoided making a clever pun there. Livestock.

Mark Block?

Just one more reason not to visit that shitty country. Bwarharharharharhar. But really... it's not the fee, it's the fact that now the fee will have to be collected. Think about it. That said, hallo protectionism! It's been a while!

There's an interesting paper on morals written by Claus Wedekind. Could have been Wedekind & Milinski (2000) or dos Santos, Rankin & Wedekind (2011)... got both in my notes, but I'm too lazy to look it up right now. Anyway, what intrigued me about his lecture was that he defined "moral system"...

I don't see any relationship between the "examples" and abortion. They already didn't make a lot of sense when I was sober.

I can't really process shitty sentences right now, was the rice miRNA they found a good thing or a bad thing?

He isn't responsible for what gullible people think. Also, he isn't "testing a drug" in a scientific sense, he's fucking desperate. Whether his decision to make this public was a good idea is debatable, but to do whatever crosses his mind... as long as he isn't directly harming anyone, he can do...

Well, since spontaneous recovery is kind of unlikely in the case of terminal cancer, he's going to die and add +1n to the pool of people who tried weird stuff and died anyway. If it worked, it would provide glorious N=1 evidence of this treatment's effectiveness. Don't see why that would be a...

Scathing. I like it.

Slightly unrelated, but I vividly remember a particular bullying incident. There was this big guy (about 1,70-1,80m at age ~10) who had repeated third or fourth grade; he was also a big bully. Because of his size, there really weren't any kids who could rival his physical strength. I was...

I'll try to be brief. 1) Immediate response - martial arts classes. Some girls feel they are 'just not made' for that, but it is just so helpful if the class is given correctly. Not only can these lessons teach girls how to defend themselves (to a certain degree), they can be character-building...

Well, I agree that a lot of people should not procreate (even though I'm a proponent of variance). This guy's one of them.
