WHO CARES? HISTORY WILL MAKE JUDGEMENT.
Teachers do it every day, they've been trained to do exactly that; a stereotypical teacher is a pedantic bar steward... 😉 Indeed, I literally couldn't do their job, they are so much more than me...

Why infants and children died at a horrific rate in the Middle Ages?
You're right, health is a different equation, and as soon as I figure out the question, you can expect a new topic...

Is it possible to tell who is DVing?
I think it's fair to say that I'm the DV king, in terms of numbers, I seem to piss a lot of people off, mostly by asking why. If you can support your hubris, then good luck to you; most of us can't... It's almost always a double edged sword...

It's more likely you got Dv's bc you lack the hubris necessary to learn anything of value... 😉

The philosophy of it all
We'd have different people accredited with advancing geometry, other than that, not a lot... If thing's are understandable by a human, then eventually a human will understand it...

Why infants and children died at a horrific rate in the Middle Ages?
When the infant mortality rate is high, then so is the birthrate, the antipode has been shown to be true in our modern era. The question is, which is healthier for humanity?

Maximum possible impact of environment on personality?
How many ghost stories would it take to make ghosts real? Some introverts just need validation to become more confident and some extroverts can become less confident with negative validation. Most people don't really fit into a pigeon hole... 😉

Is it possible to tell who is DVing?
Indeed +1, but some times there's an attempt to weaponise the DV in defence of a specious argument... From member's that sould know better...

Maximum possible impact of environment on personality?
Some people have a strange relationship with pain, some even genuinely enjoy the sensation, their reward system maybe enhanced, rather than destroyed; it's possible such people would choose to stay and maybe even engage jollily with their torturer. 😉

AI's Tools Lying to it. What are the implications?
This is the question, at what point does a facsimile, resemble reality?

Guys! These are huge news! Look at this! I'm serious!

AI's Tools Lying to it. What are the implications?
The evolution of AI can be wrong, but it will get better...
-
AI's Tools Lying to it. What are the implications?
I think there's yin-yang aspect to this question, the other side of the AI coin is, perhaps, a more acceptable version of 'soma' from 'a brave new world'. Most of us are perfectly content with an external source of validation, if it's roughly human shaped...

Lost in Google Translation
This is the reason, I think, that a written language degrades, in terms of understanding across cultures, both different cultures and generational cultural drift (evolution); whilst the spoken word remains understandable across generation's and culture's.

WHO CARES? HISTORY WILL MAKE JUDGEMENT.
Philosophically speaking, you do fit a well known stereotype; typically, not long lived 'in these here part's'... 😉

General Relativity: Flamm's Paraboloid...
I'll have to give it some thought, bc I seem to be missing something important...
-
General Relativity: Flamm's Paraboloid...
I'll be honest, it struck me as a verbose version of the same metaphor. My understanding is, the second tick rate is invariant (my apologies if I've used that word incorrectly, but it seems appropriate), so whatever frame one is in, only seems distorted from the outside.

General Relativity: Flamm's Paraboloid...
I get that it's unrepresentative at a certain level of understanding, but can you think of a better metaphor for those of us that don't speak maths fluently?
