It will be replaced by a measurement based on mathematics This very same thing happened to the meter years ago. The metre was originally defined in 1793 as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator

Not a bad introduction. I have only one minor criticism. Can you believe that? lol While "operating" the r-complex and the limbic system is done on auto-pilot, rational thought costs energy and

In the States every sex offender on probation has to take a polygraph test regarding whether or not they had similar sex acts/offenses similar to their crimes. If they fail the test, they go back to prison.

the polygraph finds is best use in Post-Conviction Sex Offender cases which prevents these criminals roaming your streets and claiming more victims. And how does it do that?

misfired a comment. :)

They claim that it is “the most accurate lie detector in the world”, but only people who had experience with it could tell us that for sure. “Eyedetect” is a product of the company “Converus”. The people

the polygraph is still struggling with bans in courts and other limitations (ironically in the US, whose scientists have developed it mostly) It wouldn't matter who developed it. We have at 5th amendment.

Yes, we are. We're full of cognitive biases, but how does that negate the well known fact we can read each others emotions? That's a logical fallacy. I didn't say " people can't read each others's

I've never heard of an "autobiographical" implicit association test, but personally I'd be skeptical of using this for lie detection. All implicit association tests are essentially the modern

Oh yeah, and what 's in the video wasn't the half of it. It was awesome. That's some clever marketing for the game. The project sort of survived Kojima's split with Konami. The three people behind the

I mean, you do know that the only thing copyright really does is allow the creator to control the distribution of their work? What they do is create an IP for their shows, they deny the competition to

Yes, the category of "supernatural" is useless. No, flow isn't even near a shamanistic state. It isn't meditation.

I'm saying you're arguing against copyright itself.

I personally think that part C makes sense as it inhibits psychics from claiming that they can find lost or stolen objects, which would also include loved ones who went missing. Yes, but don't these people

What they do is create an IP for their shows, they deny the competition to compete where it counts; the quality of the service. IP is a newer buzzword that has no established legal meaning. Ultimately,
