People are finding mates and sticking with them at lower rates than in the past. The misapplication of science to society is a big part of it.
Consider: As Taleb points out in his book “The Black Swan”, to consider how a billiards ball will react after the ninth impact, you actually need to know the stations of every molecule in the universe just to take into account the meaningful impact of gravity.… read more “Modern Human Errors In Selecting A Mate”
I am fighting two unjust charges right now, one from the City of Los Angeles and the other from Metropolitan Park Apartments of Seattle.
The City of Los Angeles gave me a parking ticket when I was in a legal spot in Beverly Hills.

I am about to say screw Windows Azure, and switch to GoGrid or another non-Microsoft solution.
The creators of South Park have now been threatened with violence & death by several Muslim groups for depicting Mohammed dressed up in a bear costume in the last episode and hinting at seeing more of him in the next episode.
Should Comedy Central declare pre-emptory jihad on Islam?
As the War on Privacy continues, it is important to note that the enemy here is only privacy; not alone time. Alone time is very much a separate principle. Privacy means hiding what you are doing from other people, alone time is just spending time by yourself. If people know you are by yourself you do not have privacy, but you do have alone time. … read more “Privacy Versus Alone Time”
“You don’t have to be overly macho. You don’t have to be over-complimentary. Gain her respect. And that’s treating her as an equal. Don’t bullshit her. Treat her as a human being. Treat her as you would treat yourself. As soon as you have that respect from her, she’ll treat you with the same respect that you show.… read more “You don’t have to be overly macho…”
An excellent treatment for facial blemishes and melasma is Cosmelan Peel. Epione is a strong medical organization that provides top notch Cosmelan services and works hard to ensure that all patients get great results.
