Yeah, and people should just turn that frown upside-down and get on with things! And people who suffer traumatic events should just gosh-darn get over it and move on with their life.
It's good to see that mental health problems are nothing more than childish behaviour!
I'm not advocating happiness as the sole metric for ordering society, but even on a practical level happier people are more productive, more healthy and less likely to engage in crime. And I think you're mistaking a cognitive bias with an active emotion.
Don't be ridiculous, having socialised medicine is nothing to do with the ability to refuse treatment. If anything you're more likely to have your wishes respected due to the fact that doctors are less likely to be hit with lawsuits. As for "doesn't work", you keep on paying twice as much as the rest of the world for comparable quality.
No. In secure mode you can only boot Window 8, Linux, or other OSes that support UEFIs and has keys installed, in normal mode you can boot any OS, including Window 8.
Again see the article I linked to in my other reply to you - less leisure time and more wealth (but relatively less so) is likely to decrease overall happiness, not increase it.
People's happiness is based on relative wealth, not absolute wealth. That may have evolutionary causes, but it's still true and should be acknowledged by policy.
Type get-dh and press Tab? Having a regular naming convention means it's easy to guess what a command will be, and there's always get-command *dhcp* if you're really stumped for what the command is, and help get-dhcpserver for help (actually, help get-dh would probably be enough to uniquely identify the command). Under linux you've got chmod vs. ls -l (or stat), or cd vs pwd to set and get permissions and working directory respectively, which is fine once you've learnt a command, but doesn't help in guessing what the command is, nor what it's opposite is.
All PS shell commands have a regular forum of Verb-Noun, common verbs are Get, Set, New, Out, Write, Invoke, Format, Add and Remove. So Get-Location and Set-Location, Get-ChildItem, Invoke-History and Remove-Item - which are in turn aliased to pwd, cd, ls, r and rm. So you can be fairly sure what New-WebServiceProxy or Get-DhcpServer does.
The GP wasn't my comment. And anyway, it wasn't silly, it was a succinct summation of the points made in other posts. Choosing to reply to that in an offhand manner without addressing any substantive points raised in that comment or others makes it look like you're being petty and unwilling to engage in any kind of dialogue, at least in my opinion. To be fair, my post was not very constructively phrased, and I apologise for that, but that is how it looked to me.
I see that this is the only reply to your post you've replied to. Probably because you don't have an actual reply to all the posts showing you were wrong.
So? Either a) he has shares in those businesses and is pushing a false agenda to boost their shares, or b) he believes in AGW and therefore has bought shares in businesses he thinks will therefore do well in the future. There's no way to determine which of the two is correct without reading his mind, but Occam's razor would indicate the second is more likely. I mean, if he just wanted to make some money on the stock market, there are easier and more profitable ways to do it.
They were aware there was an end-of-year test, but not aware that the email was fake according to the article. And the results is in the maximal situation of anonymity, no consequences, high pressure to succeed, no possibility to peer-group judgement and an email practically encouraging them to do so.
Actually, it was a 4 year old girl against an astrologer and an investment analyst - see here, and here's an article about random vs expert portfolios.
This one I can agree with, that a majority of people will lie to claim as much as they can. It's a basic human nature to be greedy, and finding people who won't lie for greed is hard to do.
Not actually true, peoples' greed is related to a variety of factors, this experiment in which cheating is about as easy as possible and practically condoned, still only 69% of students cheat. In real-life situations with more risk, less reward or that are socially closer to home the percentage will be much less.

LOL, nice work :)

The costs of health care for small businesses are disproportionately high, discouraging entrepreneurship.
It's about twice as a portion of GDP, split equally between government and private spending. Here you go.

A better book - The Goldilocks Enigma. Doesn't really come to any conclusion, but it treats all of the hypotheses equally.

The former given that the registry is basically just a database.

There you go.

Excellent comment! Have you read Intellectual Impostures by any chance?

No, only one (the simplest) model of supersymmetry has been ruled out so far, not supersymmetry as a whole.
What does Al Gore have to do with anything? He's not a scientist, nor does he hold any political power.
