""it could mean a future without intellectual property and no way to encourage innovation" What a cynical view. How about innovating for the pure joy of it? I personally believe that human beings have an innate drive to create - a drive which the profit motive only interferes with." - Andrej Kostresevic

The first step is moving the nav to the left ... ;) - Jay Tannenbaum
@Jason Carreira - From the article: they "means anyone who draws a paycheck by manipulating your opinion" - Andrej Kostresevic
I enjoyed the titties, if nothing else... but this also explains exactly why Rush Limbaugh and the rest of his ilk just repeat crazy and unfounded accusations about the left. People forget where they heard it or whether it was false, and just remember the rumor. - Jason Carreira
the entire consensus reality is in place through something akin to hypnotism ... more to do with personal ignorance than manipulation - Gregory Lent
this was a brilliant article. it had the trenchancy of a noam chomsky speech, the wit of a hunter s. thompson rant, the best illustration of amygdalae ever. oh, and boobs. *this* is what our children should be learning in school. (assuming They want children to have critical thinking skills, that is.) - Karim
is there an inverse operation to jumping the shark? an inflection point where you suddenly realize something is just amazingly brilliant? because i think cracked.com just did that. - Karim
Cracked the magazine: -1. Cracked the web site: +10. And why is it we're getting a serious analysis of the psychology of messaging, especially vis a vis politics, from the people who were originally a lame rip-off of Mad? ENTER Horsemen, stage right. - Heidi Moon
Most of this is spot on, but I have to take issue with the casual equation of meditation with people chanting "USA! USA!" at political rallies. I've been meditating daily for most of my life. I've been honing my critical thinking skills, and using complex logic in study, work, and research during this same period. Judging by the results, meditation and chanting slogans have opposite effects. - Ruchira S. Datta
Meditation is not about shutting down those noisy voices. It is paying close attention to those voices and the emotional effect they have on our mood. - Sudhakar Chandra
Quoting one of the commenters "Good article, but now I'm horny." - it turns out all points point to the essence of manipulation small percentage of people/voters are aware, but all of us are equal when confronted by jugs. - Nenad Nikolic via twhirl
@Nenad - Not all of us are equal. Case in point: they didn't do anything for me. ;-) - Ruchira S. Datta

adkk on Sharing a bed increases stress, drain the brain for men - and guess what, women just sleep better!
September 12 at 7:32 am - Link
""and guess what, women just sleep better!" Well that's a bit of an overstatement. From the article: "Both sexes had a more disturbed night's sleep when they shared their bed""women apparently managed to sleep more deeply [...]since they claimed to be more refreshed than their sleep time suggested.""the women still reported that they had the best sleep when they were alone in bed." First of all, the claim you make in the title is refuted in the article. Second, even the finding that the "managed to sleep more deeply" is based on self-reporting of a subjective feeling, not to mention a sample size of 8." - Andrej Kostresevic

"OK, considered. And? So lets assume the whole world can now use my design. But that doesn't prevent me from using it myself. If someone rents out my house, I can no longer use it. Did I misunderstand your point?" - Andrej Kostresevic

"The crucial difference here, clearly, is that digital content can be copied, and a physical "structure" can not. I understand that this ruins your joke, but the joke is based on the same flawed analogy that is behind concepts such as "intellectual property" and "intellectual property theft"" - Andrej Kostresevic
