But you can't change minds with reason. You have to put irrational passion and emotion into the mix. If reason always prevailed and changed minds, Trump would've never ever lead any enterprise or endeavor, let alone become president of a country.
Cemeteries and prisons are filled with people who were/are right.
Armed guards? I thought his only line of defense was using one of his younger kids as a human shield?
There are very few hard set laws in psychology. That said, OP is wrong. There is not a study contradicting each other study. The problem is that human behavior is not very deterministic, save for a few subset of conditions and behaviors.
Psychology did have a reproducibility and p level crisis. However, in my opinion this was the result of external political and financial pressures over universities and research institutions. Which deviated and forced theoretical analysis and statistical experimental designs that were not suited for psychological research. Researchers were forced to design and construct studies in ways that ensured publishing, grants and finance. Instead of good theory and science.
The second factor is bad science communication. Psychology is a field were everyone feels entitled to talk with authority because it is about the human existence, and we are all human after all, no? However this leads to a high degree of disinformation that makes it hard to separate science from opinion, and often times political agendas too. This of course makes it seem like psychology as a science is less reliable than it is. Because it gets mixed in the same bag as pseudoscientific slop.
When you sift through the misinformation and read hard psychology science, then you notice a third thing. A lot of the hard science is on neurological functional psychology. Which is dry and not very interesting to sell in blogs, tweets, and reels. And the softer, social science side, that is virtually ignored by media, because it tends to reflect that capitalism and western civilization is destroying mental health. So there's no interest to promote that idea or to acknowledge that, we know how to fix a lot of problems. But it requires dismantling a lot of power structures.
If it can be summarized into an email without anyone else's input, it was a bad meeting and should've been a mail to start with. A good meeting is not about transferring freely available info, but about discussion and decision making.
It isn't easy, but this isn't about the hardware. It's about the software packages. Tons of software meant to run on 32-bit hasn't been updated to run on 64-bit natively. Thus the burden of keeping a lot of packages that serve as backwards compatibility.
There's nuance to this.
Fairy tales, as we know them, are a fairly recent (18th century) invention. The traditional European folktales they were based off of, didn't include morals, weren't aimed at children, nor were they intended to be used as teaching tools. More likely, they were stories to be told around campfires or at hearths while sewing, weaving or whatever, and mostly were told amongst adults to amuse each other. Thus the very mature topics and dark humor tone of many traditional tales, specially those that didn't include children or animal characters.
Stories with morals where usually of the tradition of Aesop's fables, and more common on academic or philosophy circles as study material. It was Perrault and Grimm's innovation, popularizing these folk stories by adapting them and mixing in a fable structure and aiming the stories to an audience of the high class, first the high royal courts, then the Victorian aristocracy. This audience were the one's who emphasized moral rectitude and using the folk stories as teaching aids for children.
Then the 20th century saw the commercialization of fairy tales as stories aimed at children through the rise of bedtime stories literature and Disney's animated film tradition.
No, that's how you lose users. Private, nontransparent decision taking makes project get dropped immediately.
The timing just sucked. 32 bit has to go, but it can't be this year or next year. And it can't be a blanket drop as the dev wanted. Alternatives are not ready yet to keep gaming working, and gaming was the number 1 factor holding back desktop adoption.
He is also falling for the internet fundamental attribution error: "If I hate or love something and everybody on the internet agrees with me, it's because I'm always right and we are all intelligent individuals. If I love/hate something, and everybody on the internet disagrees, they were lied to, manipulated, astroturfed, are ignorant, misinformed, etc."
It could be true. But it could also be that your proposal is very unpopular and you're wrong.
Must be so nice to be so privileged as to be spoiled for choice on which fascist to support.
Spotify is the only streaming service available worldwide other than YouTube Music and Apple.
So for a lot of people it is either piracy or supporting a US tech megacorporation. Tidal, Qobuz, deezer. Cool, nice that they exist options. But most people in the planet would have to also pay a VPN and hope to not get their account banned if they want to use some of those alternatives.
It's funny really, to see how the “fascist option” for some is actually the most ethical for others.
There's always piracy of course, I suppose that is the only morally correct option always.
Rookie mistake, we all know you charge for the drink before spiting on it.
Surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet, but awnings. Glass is a superb thermal conductor. Not even the best curtain in the world would prevent air getting hot through the window if the sun is hitting it directly. An awning is meant to shade the window glass, preventing heating way more than a curtain alone.
Also, if the home has several levels, open the upper floor windows more than the lower ones. Hot air expands and raises. If it has somewhere to escape it will keep the house cool and the windows will draw in wind. Wind moves faster at higher altitudes. That's why attic fans are so effective.
I'm back to statistical significant data, and why it is important to have good data scientists in the loop. The idea is precisely to ask the questions you are asking. Would have been different if…? Then try to control for other variables in order to avoid the induction error. How do you know they didn't do this with their data?
That's why I mention other phone models. There are Sony phones with and without jacks. There are Asus phones with and without jacks. How did they perform compared to each other? How far away is that difference from what could be expected from randomness? How does that difference compare when the other factors are compensated for? How do they compare with other phones?
I assume they did their homework, and also want to sell more earbuds. They wouldn't push for earbuds and wireless if headphone jacks were market drivers. It would be cheaper to install a headphone jack rather than updating the BT board? Maybe, I don't know. But if other factors have a significant impact on sales while the jack doesn't. Then they have their decision made for them. Market research is not about being right all the time, it is not magic, it is about reducing uncertainty and risk in making decisions. Precisely because there are other phone makers with a headphone jack that do worse than the Fairphone is base enough to understand why they feel safe keeping that feature out. It doesn't add sales and its absence doesn't reduce them significantly either. So they know they are free to keep going even if some vocal critics will be pissed, the actual buyers couldn't care any less.
Some of those can be explained by bad expectations.
Frostpunk is not a city builder, more like a puzzle game.
Outer wilds is not a space game, it's a time loop mystery.
Fantasy sword and sorcery is hardly the most important side of souls games. They're technical performance games.
They all technically include those elements you like, but were more about something else.
