This is for those who like to blend philosophy and science. The video clips in the Sagan Series are from Carl Sagan's television series, Cosmos. These videos are a remake of some of Sagan's work and…Continue

The internet has become a place where you can get stuff for free. We love it and we like to keep it that way, but unfortunately, giving out stuff for free tends to get in the way of business. That's…Continue

Brian replied to March E.'s discussion The Age-Old Debate: What is Human Nature?"The need to create, that is what, in my opinion, constitutes human nature. Look around you, look at the world. The human race has created most of things that surround us: places to live, tools to use, games to play...the list never ends. Now take a…"

Bjørn Erik Juel replied to March E.'s discussion The Age-Old Debate: What is Human Nature?"very good points about childhood development and gene expression influencing hormone balance etc. I would like to add, though, that I think other factors play a similarly large, if not much larger, roles in keeping our internal environment in…"
Aya replied to March E.'s discussion The Age-Old Debate: What is Human Nature?"From my understanding, the study of epigenetics is new and we don't know a whole lot of how much power it plays in genetic development/expression over time. It is indeed most powerful within the womb, and the environment of the womb and effects…"
Aya replied to March E.'s discussion The Age-Old Debate: What is Human Nature?"Both of your viewpoints are indeed where my thoughts lie on this topic. I'm glad you brought up this issue of personal responsibility. Too often I think we can get carried away with notions of personality being predetermined due to one factor…"
Bjørn Erik Juel replied to March E.'s discussion The Age-Old Debate: What is Human Nature?"Oh, sorry about not being more precise, and thanks for the follow-up. I mean on a personal level, as in, my genetic material is static through my life. Most cells will likely experience some change in 'their' genetic material, from…"
Steck replied to March E.'s discussion The Age-Old Debate: What is Human Nature?"Both :D
But how big is the influence of our genes? f.e. I would say jealousy is part of the human nature. If you look at polygamic life-styles where 1 man has many wifes you are able to find wifes that are jealous and for others it's totally…"
Bart replied to March E.'s discussion The Age-Old Debate: What is Human Nature?"When you say our genetic material is static, do you mean the DNA we're born with, as an individual? Or, that it stays static through generations?"
Bjørn Erik Juel replied to March E.'s discussion The Age-Old Debate: What is Human Nature?"A very interesting topic. Personally, I think there is no such thing as human nature. If i had to say what I think is meant by what people call "human nature" though, I would say something like: the behavioral pattern of currently living…"
Steck replied to March E.'s discussion Values"Would you say that it's always right to show the courage to speak out the truth, even if it causes harm to others and doesn't to any good exapt of beeing the truth? (especially @ The Berns) I think that truth is a good goal and should be…"

Things that need to be done...
Posted on December 22, 2012 at 6:14pm 1 Comment 5 Likes
Although my job pays on average 12 -15 dollars and hour, I don't think it's worth it. Firstly, it is not stable. Sometimes I stay there for 8 hours and get maybe 30 or 40 dollars for the night. I really hate that. Secondly, it's waitressing. I hate waitressing and I work there for most days of the week now. Third, (although this is a minor issue) they keep asking me to smile 24/7, but I'm an honest person. If I don't like something, my face and my body language will let you know. I do not…

Getting money is easy right now so my challenge of the week will not be about obtaining money. I will actually have three challenges. One is to ace that job interview with the Dean of Computer Science Department at my university. The second challenge is to produce artwork. And the third is to finally post a vlog. I will not say what the vlog will be about. It's a surprise. I will try to do all of these with the little time I have while working more hours. That will definitely be a…

Lately, I've gotten into the habit of finding strategies for "gamifying" my life and everything I do. I found one method that seems to work pretty well for me. First, I list the main long-term goals. They branch out into little goals throughout the…
Some Progress :D

It's my second week of real university *finally.* I was admitted late and didn't get to make it to the earlier orientations and had to pay the late fee, which took out quite a chunk from my bank account. At least I have a grant from federal aid that will definitely help me out with paying for my education. I swore that I will not be taking out any more loans.
Uni is actually nice. They have a place where they will fix your laptop for you for free which is better than I can say for the…

Lore replied to Lore's discussion Condemning others to validate ourselves."Interesting points. I just want to clarify that I didn't mean that society gets all the blame in these scenarios.
