_Schizotypy

It is apparent that we don't agree on what defines a group of humans to be a sort of 'nation-state'

At which exact point in history would you point to as the defining moment where 'nation-states' begin?

Do you judge all historical concepts purely by how they are in the current day?

Concepts develop over time, those societies are absolutely part of the beginning of current day nation-states no matter how diverse in culture they may have been (which is something we still see today)

the top down organization of humans and labor, complete with warring states.

I'm rather unsure how this would NOT be considered similar to nation-state organization. Yes, a slightly smaller scale in some cases perhaps but there is still the over-arching governmental authority

edited to add: I love how people down-vote impulsively without context for argument

Medieval Europe was a form of nation state....

I think you need a longer URL

Here's one of particular interest: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P53

From my experience reading research into articles relating to neuroscience, when omitting the term 'organization', 'driving' something implies a sort of 'this is what is powering the...' or 'this is what is stimulating the...' I agree that including the term 'pokemon' would drive some readers to the article, omitting 'organization' obfuscates what the article is really about

I think the term 'organization' is pretty important here, more-so than pokemon

'Experience with pokemon suggests eccentricity drives organization of visual cortex'?

'Childhood experience suggests eccentricity drives organization of visual cortex'?

Why do people cite breitbart like it's an actual source of trustworthy information

none of those things have anything to do with Linux. If you're installing Linux, you probably aren't using the included Windows installation which is where all that crapware was installed

Cocaine has negligible withdrawal symptoms especially when compared to benzodiazepines or alcohol, so this is absolutely not the case. The literature that I have read does not say that any compounds are "hard" or "soft" The literature that I have read also has noted that the impact of alcohol and tobacco are worse than the drugs people always refer to as "hard" drugs.

Could the block of wood be considered a communication device if you write on it to communicate with your passengers?

Are you saying 85dB is "pleasurable"?

Can you explain what pharmacological properties of a substance makes a drug "hard"? This is defined nowhere in literature.

What's your evidence for this "outperforms human trainers" claim? I only see one single blog post and not much else on the website.

In what way is this newsworthy?

Wondering why they didn't throw "quantum" in there too

Russia banned drug information? What sort of information, like pharmacology?

Is this supposed to link somewhere?

so if you hold a block of wood while driving, can you be ticketed for using a block of wood while driving? What if you plug headphones into a block of wood that is sitting in the seat next to you?

Don't care at all, don't see a reason why I should care

Maybe it would be a good idea to prioritize those crops then instead of corn for HFCS, which we seem to have more than enough of

Middle class is a net worth of 9m? That seems a bit high

why don't people just work from home.....

The author displays a severe misunderstanding of dopamine. Dopamine is released when working out, playing sports, and any sort of learning activity (which, honestly, is literally everything). Dopamine is a neurotransmitter heavily involved in learning and adapting to different scenarios/information. It isn't some magical chemical that gets released when doing "fun" things.

What a beautiful idea

your dating site is down, funny story though

I'm sorry for the useless comment but this is really fucking cool

This is interesting to me, historical semi nude portraits are okay but recent ones are not? So old things are accepting? What does age matter, I don't see it making that much of a difference in reality
