Job interview tomorrow, flying to Tahiti on Friday for a short break on the beach and will arrive in Mexico on Monday. And then it'll be six weeks of trying not to get my arse shot off in a city where drug gangs are engaging in increasingly brazen and random shootings.

God. Are all the C# .NET jobs fucking C# + SQL + ASP? I'm sick of it. I must be the only one in NZ with over 3 years .NET experience and minimal web/sql exposure (Writing apps for R&D tech).
Heh, on the flip side, it also means its near impossible for us to hire experienced c# developers, as they are all C# .NET ASP monkeys with minimal app development. Argh, I hate trawling seek.

... uh no. Not my beliefs. Just, y'know, reality.
Sure if they couldn't explain it then they should say so. Assuming it's the ghost of xmas pudding, however, is just the wrong kind of logic that has continued through the imagination of people since before timeline.jpg's were invented. |

Uhm, no. A belief would be based on some kind of personal thing right? Wheras scientific studies of the brain can explain why people 'see' or 'hear' things which then falls into that whole nasty 'evidence' bucket that a lot of people don't like to accept.
Here's an exerpt from Richard Dawkins' God Delusion that might help illustrate this phenomena; Quote:

But still, I have to agree with Pixie; if only because I believe that science is a doctrine that people 'believe' or 'have faith' in, in exactly the same way as any religion you care to mention. I don't see the difference. For the record, I have discovered that the label applied to my belief structure (or at least the closest I've found) is Fallibilism.

Well, when phenomena like this are proven via scientific method and scrutiny then I'll quite happily accept it as real. Until then, keeping in mind each attempt so far to do so has failed, i'll stick with the current evidence. Such is science.

Of course when you say real you are opening an entirley new can of sardines in regards to the definition of reality and how individuals affect or create it - which was also what I was trying to get at originally. Pixie

There is one reality, and that's the real one. Where things can be tested and measured.
Everything else is Duke Forever.

i see no problem in questioning everything, but when the evidence heavily sways in one direction, like the subject of ghosts, then it's probably safe to go with that evidence. |
