Sleep over ...

Ha, Samuel. You should have gone there.

Keep an open-mind - you can always get out of the house before sleep-over.

do you any female geeks out there?

no. Almost, none.

Despite billions of dollars dumped worldwide into trying to get girls on equal terms as we boys,

they have failed.

lol.

A clear difference is seen the very moment we started RobotBeryl. Nearly every guy managed to finish task 8 by the end of the lesson. (not including documentation)
Meanwhile, girls were "avoiding" the task and trying to spend an hour on the title of the sysdoc.

UPDATE: check this out. Finally some sensable feminists. Trying to take a balance between the 2 extremists.

However, I've come up with something much better - gender-utopianism.

Why do you think so? discuss here.

dinner @ camp?

what are we going to eat at camp?

some ideas...

1. the SAMUELIAN DIET:
This means all can food. Can beans + can beef + can tuna + can luncheon + instant noodles.

2. the Martinian diet:
complex. chicken wings, winter-melon soup, seafood noodles, veggie, even fruit

3. the u-genian diet:
just instant noodles + canned luncheon + Tabasco (whole bottle) + tea + power bars

The answer to free will

Free will... does it actually exist?

I have the answers, but no proof. Hence, I shall use debate to provide the proof I need.

I think that whether you have free will or not depends on how you look at something.
If you look at a person, and JUST 1 person, you will see that they clearly have the ability to make choices freely.
On the other hand, if you look at them as a whole, all that free will somewhat cancels each other out, and you are left with no "choice".

Think of the motion of atoms - they are incredibly, extremely chaotic systems. However, when all the atoms - some 6 billion of them, bond together into a liquid or gas. By then, larger, inter-nuclear bonds take over and they become more steady and hence - less free will.

I don't expect anyone to get what I say - we all have different brains.
