Disadvantaged in the stats perhaps, but majorly advantaged in the "hey, we already know you gonna stop reading and vote now" dept.

You gotta really drop the ball as a pro tem to lose in that first election.

bjb568

Ok, fine. But there is another group which is, well, pretty evident on the internet: those who never develop critical thinking and empathy skills.

Or, at least, develop them really late.

The problem is that those changes seem to be cultural, rather than natural. It's not hard to create an environment which doesn't teach them. It's also not hard to teach them before adolescence. They can also be taught disjointly, which would void the whole concept.

This (part of a) definition (section) in the textbook.

hichris123

What about it?

bjb568

I assert that it is a poor definition that can be misleading.

hichris123

Why?

bjb568

It doesn't apply to a nonnegliable group of people without conflicting with the widely accepted definition of adolescence, the phycological transition between childhood and adulthood marked by brain development, an increase mental maturity, and social changes that starts around the beginning of puberty.

hichris123

Right, but adolescence can be earlier or later.

Adolescence is development, yes.

But it could be when young.

It could be when old.

It's typically when a teen.

SPArchaeologist

@SPArchaeologist depends on the room. Ask them if you're not sure.

@Bart so basically you would mean that if the room owners don't see anything against it, one could live with that with no other problems? Ok, good to know, thanks.

@SilentKiller poor infinite nowadays doesn't get much spare time, always busy cleaning up the room. I think the avatar should reflect that.

owner's responsibility to make room useful and clean and only owner can move messages of room

@SilentKiller never said the opposite. I just said that the poor duck is pretty busy removing spam notices.

SilentKiller

current dp is fine won't look good with mop and bucket

SPArchaeologist

@SilentKiller maybe if we replace the duck with a pony it would look better. I think that would be an acceptable side effect.

I actually answered a question this month without being downvoted on it:

A: How to play a video in vb.net?

You're attempting to use an older library with a newer version of .NET. In an ideal world, every library would be built & updated for the newest platform, but this isn't the case. useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy needs to be set to true in your app.Config file, for example: <startup useLegacy...

@Lix Hi

@SPArchaeologist Dinosaurs > ponies. Just sayin'

Lix

@Mooseman - Question: On one of the answers to my post I can see a system message talking about the answer needing additional references etc...

http://lifehacks.stackexchange.com/a/7432/7123

Is this added automatically or manually?

SPArchaeologist

11:56 AM

@Mooseman Having saw both Jurassic Park 3 and 100episodes worth of ponies I beg to disagree.

Mooseman

@Lix Moderator post notices are added manually. I added it on that post.

Lix

Ahh - ok cool...

I mean most of the answers don't use any sort of citations or references so it was a little strange that only this answer got the message

Mooseman

Lix

primarily because of the length?

Mooseman

@SPArchaeologist You have the right to be wrong... this is the internet.

@Lix Mostly. The bigger issue is they don't say how or when to use it, and they don't have any sources to back up their claim, which is preferred.
