  3. is this empirical? on Being Slightly Overweight May Lead To Longer Life · · Score: 1

    I find this hard to believe.
    Go to an old folks home and you will see that almost all of the residents have slim builds.

  8. Re:Open Source Alternatives on Obama Appoints Non-Tech Guy As CTO · · Score: 1

    Provided Chopra is a good judge of character, this could be a brilliant decision by Obama.

  9. Re:Oh, get off it on Quantum Theory May Explain Wishful Thinking · · Score: 1

    I think you misunderstood the point.

    The linked website doesn't imply that quantum physics are at play in our brains.

    It just suggests that using a quantum mechanical approach to modeling the problem instead of a classical probabilistic approach might yield more accurate results.

    Essentially they are just using different math to model a problem. The new model doesn't imply anything about the implementation.

    To get a dog, her mom has to become President of the United States.
