@AlexCarten_ There was competition between them. Feynman tells a story that his sister started learning Chinese and wrote to him in Chinese. He didn’t want her to get the upper hand. So he got a dictionary and wrote back in Chinese, too. Says the guy looking for the map of the cat.
@alialhannoori If you mean Chinese, I don’t think it is about discounts. I know for a fact that very rich Singaporeans prefer Emirates over Singapore Airlines. They change their schedules just to fly on Emirates.
@MatthewBraham1 The basis to the question is flawed. Arday was a full professor. Sociology therefore accepted. As many have pointed out, Cofnas did not have a ‘proper’ job. His pseudo-science therefore not accepted. The complete opposite of what you assert.
@SNY_Longmeadow@PriyamvadaGopal So you agree with Cofnas? The term ‘idiot’ is a category on the normal distribution of IQ. You put me at the 0.00003 percentile. Excuse me while I just drool over the phone.
@PriyamvadaGopal Most people engage with you politely, but you respond so obnoxiously. Your approach is the opposite of the academy. Whatever point you’re trying to make (race as a social construct?) is lost. My Chinese biologist wife said I was nuts when I told her races don’t exist.
@NPC14@ravindraJourno It’s 6. I don’t understand the point of followers. I have 1 follower on YouTube. A 12-year-old girl. So embarrassing. I tried to get rid of her but apparently you can’t. I pretend she doesn’t exist. Says bot to NPC.
@PriyamvadaGopal Different races do have different potential for certain illnesses. Caucasians predisposed to skin cancer. Very unlikely among Chinese. Chinese predisposed to cholesterol and colorectal cancer. But I’m not convinced by IQ because unlike fleas humans nurture young for 20 yrs.
@linmeitalks Mei, you overstate the meaning of the case. Hard cases make for bad law. Never was this maxim more appropriate. I’d be interested to know how many times this law applied. If rape is difficult to prosecute, this basis 10x more difficult.
@Mike_Amanpene This is not news, except in the UK. Harvard admissions has been a target of litigation for several decades now. Asians are discriminated against big time. It’s funny British people are discovering these stats only now…
@andyantiles_ Hold on. You’re based in USA. Middle class means working class there. So you’re saying a working class job is USD300K a year? Clickbait. I was in Hanoi last week. Hotel worker earns below USD500 a MONTH.
@tyromper It’s a question. The lawyer must take instructions. No need to get angry about it. The whole point about a Will at this stage is who’s going to look after kids, who do you trust as executor.
@KirstieMAllsopp I knew about this. There are only 2 obscure brands selling tumble dryers in the country where I live. I bought one earlier this year. Supposedly, there are some heat pump models that work better - the really expensive ones. Must press sales rep. I will avoid until no choice.
@de_jever Prof R Winston famously said that he wouldn’t hire grads with a 1st Class. He thought that they spent too much time in the library and would not have a wide range of interests. But Dawkins did go on to too much about the Aussie Bishop who confused extinct / extant. Pedantic.
@Dr_Biohacker I just try not to think about it. Not an athlete but 45 bpm; 35 bpm asleep. Had heart tests. Funniest thing was Dr told me to do treadmill test. He told me it was walking. I wore jeans, shirt and shoes. I’m proud I only gave up a few seconds before the end. Very tough like that.
@afneil Yeah, but Blinder62 has the real First Class. You’ve got the one where they flip a coin and decide whether to let you on or not. Fool me once, shame on you…
@clur_roberts You are paranoid. It’s exam season. I don’t know how the secret algorithms work, but potentially if you’ve ever looked at a story on education you will be offered such stories. I have described the basis of a trillion dollar industry!
@Redacted_2027@RichardDawkins He got it for ‘change’ / ‘Hope’, and then proceeded to jail journalists, screw up Syria, lose S China Sea and carry out lots and lots of extrajudicial killings.
