I wrote this article for the 2017 National Youth Business Convention. You can find the abridged version on their Facebook page: fb.com/nybcmanila The article below is the original draft I submitted, three times longer. I enjoyed the…
Joe,
We seem to live in a world no longer “believing in” facts, science, and all the other propaganda being forced upon us by the media, puppets of politicians.
I remember when I was a little kid and I believed in Santa Claus. I was pretty sure that there _was_ a monster in my closet.
I was reading this beautiful essay about how the scientific method is derived from early 20th-century child…
Science is a method not a truth.
Research data can easily be skewed depending on the outcome that benefits the highest paying bidder.
Institutions are not always the engines of innovation. They are more like fossilized ideological tradition. They are kept in place by those who benefit by way of…
Scientists believe that Coahuilaceratops had the largest horns of any dinosaur yet discovered. The whole horn…

Purely coincidentally I have stumbled across a few more weird rain/water stories…
Research is driven by data and code. Majority of researchers use research software, more than half of them creates their own. Yet less than a third shares data and code openly on the Web. Opportunity wasted: this means that…
Waking up in the morning with that feeling of “heaviness” in your eyelid, could be quiet irritating.
So what causes your eyes to be “puffy”?
This question may seem surprising, and the very idea may sound like some sci-fi tinkering with nature. In reality…

Neuroscientists ten years ago discovered in the hippocampus (part of the brain responsible for human life in the subtle plane) Blue stain, the purpose of which no one is that he should not, do not even try to define himself as the human brain remains for scientists a black box. And in…
Medicilon has been recognized as one of the top drug discovery contract research organizations (CRO) in China and is managed by a team of scientists with a wealth of experience in US-based pharmaceutical and…
I have been familiarizing myself with the metrics for measuring the quality of research publications. I am somewhat familiar with citation metrics and journal impact factors. These two are the guidelines of good publications metrics, based on what I am reading.
I have this continual feeling of being out of sync with those around me, with whom I share my life.
The best image I can conjure up of the situation, is the varying orbits of planetary paths in the solar system, which skirt around the sun on their own axis and orbital path.
Cabbage juice is amazing isn’t it. The substance you mix it with changes its color. Bases turn…
Japanese researchers have used an inducible pluripotent stem cell (ips cell) from a patient with hereditary hearing loss and recombinant human proteins to develop inner ear cells and compared them with healthy…
Back to Earth, back to life. The return to the normalcy will be rough. Thankfully, my descent back keeps me halfway around the globe to Australia. There should be plenty weirdness to keep things fresh. As much as Melbourne resembles Toronto, I suspect the little quirks will be enough to keep me…

Regular people also can’t or won’t distinguish between fabricated information and provable information. The problem is about whether the information can be proven false… narrative often cannot be proven false, or the evidence needed is so great as to be an infeasible burden.
Not surprisingly, many people here in the United States have been searching desperately for silver linings since November 8 (as many others celebrate finding theirs unexpectedly). So I went looking for TTCMUs (things to cheer me up) the other day and came across some news…
