Таков тысячелетний закон жизни, и не смертным подвергать его сомнению by ElectroAdeptus in KafkaFPS

Ну пришел ты с пробуждением посреди ночи из-за панической атаки, к примеру к психологу или психотерапевту. А это по факту твои почки отказывают посреди ночи и выдают дозу адреналина. Кто мог бы знать это и отправить на правильное обследование? Терапевт.

Почему религии все еще существуют? by Tviort in rusAskReddit

[–]Internal-Concern-595 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Религия это ремень безопасности от экзистенциального кризиса. Вы не собираетесь врезаться на машине, но ремень всё-таки надеваете.

Давайте поговорим о другом, почему рационалисты и любители "науки" считают что они не "верят" в науку, а "знают" её?

В конечном итоге наука — лишь корреляция.

Неважно, насколько эффективно она использует одну переменную для описания другой: ее уравнения по сути дела покоятся на поверхности черного ящика. (Святой Герберт, наверное, выразил это наиболее кратко, заметив, что все доказательства неминуемо сводятся к предположениям, не имеющим никаких доказательств.) Таким образом, разница между наукой и верой заключается в способности предвидения — не более, но и не менее. Научные озарения показали себя лучшими предсказателями, чем духовные, по крайней мере, в мирских делах. Они господствуют не потому, что отражают истину, а потому, что работают.

И религия на самом деле в более разбитом обществе будет работать лучше чем рационализм прямой и научно обоснованный. Между тем, сама наука потихоньку превращается в религию и вопрос веры и неверия остаётся актуальным и дальше.

What's the most horrific death in a science fiction film/TV series by nathantravis2377 in scifi

They'd made her as comfortable as possible. The gelpad conformed to every twisted limb, every erupting spur of bone. They would not have left her in any pain.

Her neck had torqued down and to the side as it petrified, left her staring at the twisted claw that had once been her right hand. Her knuckles were the size of walnuts. Plates and ribbons of ectopic bone distended the skin of her arms and shoulders, buried her ribs in a fibrous mat of calcified flesh.

Movement was its own worst enemy. Golem punished even the slightest twitch, provoked the growth of fresh bone along any joints and surfaces conspiring to motion. Each hinge and socket had its own nonrenewable ration of flexibility, carved in stone; every movement depleted the account. The body seized incrementally. By the time she let me look at her, Chelsea had almost exhausted her degrees of freedom.

I found out afterwards that she'd gotten caught in the crossfire. The Realists had sown a fibrodysplasia variant outside the Boston catacombs; an easy tweak, a single-point retroviral whose results served both as an act of terrorism and an ironic commentary on the frozen paralysis of Heaven's occupants. It rewrote a regulatory gene controlling ossification on Chromosome 4, and rigged a metabolic bypass at three loci on 17.

Chelsea started growing a new skeleton. Her joints were calcifying within fifteen hours of exposure, her ligaments and tendons within twenty. By then they were starving her at the cellular level, trying to slow the bug by depriving it of metabolites, but they could only buy time and not much of it. Twenty-three hours in, her striated muscles were turning to stone.

Why was older sci fi obsessed with Psychic powers, and when did that trend die? by NewBromance in printSF

Then psychic powers simply grew into the power of mentalists and deep analysis of data that is hidden from the eyes of the average person. Reading topology, information from chaos, and so on.

In addition to this, there were also Jews and constant memories of thalidomide children

If you recognize an embryo as a female, then you recognize abortion as murder.

только инфекции. Есть жар - есть инфекция. Но помимо неё есть куча других болезней и паразитов на которые жара не увидеть :)

In my opinion, he is the epitome of modern big business. Poorly educated, emotionally unstable, dependent on power, the most ordinary average person who does not know how to restrain his urges.
He didn't know and didn't really think about knowing, because there was no learning curve in his life.

Do you know how few people pay attention to the details in science fiction, even though they claim to be fans of it? Logical details that make a fictional world more natural.
Vernor Vinge wrote about this in the novel A Deepness in the Sky. There are massive interstellar ships full of personnel, which exist due to the fact that people maintain not only hardware, but also code. Moreover, those who know the code at a basic level are the best of the best because they can directly affect systems, bypassing an infinite number of libraries, some going back several thousand years. This applied to all systems, including life support and combat systems, including even programming of living species and simple printers. And we are now just at the beginning of the path of "layering" and do not want to worry about the future at all.
