I'm not an expert on the physiological affects of nutrition, but I'm pretty sure that you can't just count calories and think you're healthy. All calories are not created equally when applied to the...

Obesity causes all kinds of other medical problems (diabetes, heart disease, joint problems, ...), which adds significant costs to the healthcare system. So their fat actually does cost me money,...

It might be a word, but it isn't a good word.

Privatize all roads? So every time you crossed a boundary between competitors you'd have to pay a new toll or mile-based fee? Sounds like a logistical headache and a general pain in the ass for...

I didn't realize that Google's cars were so far along, that's sweet.

A friend of mine thinks that self-driving cars will be blocked by lobbyists for a long time - mainly auto insurance companies,...

What would be even more awesome -- fully self-driving cars become a reality and you can use your phone all you want, because you're not driving. Elon Musk claims that Tesla will have that capability...

I've seen people obviously on their phone during rush hour on the highway. And not just, "I'll check one thing and put it away" -- I'm talking about spending the entire trip with their focus down in...

I like watching Seth Meyers now. I usually turn it off after the first segment or two (unless he has a guest I really want to see), but I like the opening segment on the show. After the 30-second...

Same here. I miss the Colbert Report.

I got bored by some of the later calculus classes I took. But then I took differential equations at the same time as an electrical engineering class that actually used differential equations to...

Everything after the & in a URL is known as GET parameters -- if the page is looking for it, then it can use that those key/value pairs programmatically for rendering the page/headers, submitting...

The Powerball over here in the States is up to $800m ($496m if you take the lump sum payout, which is about $276m after taxes in my state). And chances of winning that amount are 1 in 292.2m.

I...

Try eel (unagi). It's cooked (if that kind of thing matters to you) but it's awesome.

I stay away from anything tempura when I get sushi -- that is a fancy word for "battered and deep-fried".

Mesmorizing.

Average cost of a hip fracture for the uninsured: $13,000 to $40,000. How long will that take you to pay off?

Try answering my last question, abelardx. I'm seriously interested in your response. In option 1, your lack of insurance impacts my freedom -- I lose money (which represents my time and effort)...

Why do your arguments always devolve into name calling?

Choose your own adventure: While you're sitting in your room alone doing nothing productive, you somehow slip and break your hip. You go to the ER with no money and no insurance. What is your...

Oh, you mean that before this particular issue, the government never imposed laws that restricted freedoms? Stop ignoring facts. Bush administration: online poker, gay marriage, Terri Schiavo. All...

You're complaining on a poker forum about government reductions of freedom in America and blaming Obama? It was Bush and the Republicans that passed back-door legislation and used weak charges to...

The ultimate problem is that healthcare is not something that can be handled by market forces or private competitive insurance companies. In order to compete, a company would have to start squeezing...

What's the technicality? That it was ratified by the House, Senate, signed into law by the president, and upheld by the Supreme Court when challenged? Those bastard libs and their tricks!

No love for "Six Feet Under"? IMO it's way better than Sopranos. Sopranos meandered too much, it felt too unfocused to me.

Damn, that's a good anti-smoking ad! Way better than those "Truth" ads we have here in the US. I just find those annoying.
