RE: (First) Date(ing) Etiquette | Hey again /RA/,
Future Married With Children here. I have a thing to ask on etiquette or lack there of when it comes to dating.
Is there a book on it? A reference or even a general guideline on this? Obviously I understand that there can't be such a thing as a bible for dating but clarity or a "just be nice" policy w... |
Beat Mass Effect on the 360, but not have ME2 on Steam. Anyway of continuing my story line on the PC now? | I just beat ME1 right now, the credits are rolling as I'm typing. I'm going to jump right into ME2 on Steam, but I was wondering if there is a way I can keep my story line going? I killed Wrex, I let the council die, and said Cptn. Anderson should be the leader, but if I start a new game without all that then it's obvi... |

Is there any theory underlying co-evolutionary optimization algorithms? | I've been tinkering with evolving two populations of parameters simultaneously, where the objective function for one population depends on interactions with the second.

What are the ten biggest problems facing humanity today? | I figured I'd ask all you wise people at Reddit because you like having problems to solve.
There are probably a Big Ten of human problems that not only threaten us now, but if we solved them, we'd move on to another phase of evolution.
Here's my guess:
1. Pollution
2. Habitat loss/ecocide
3. Boring workplaces

Dollhouse: 2 seasons of pure mediocrity all leading up to one of TV's best endings. How did reddit feel about the finale? | Just watched the last 4 episodes of Dollhouse. As you can tell, I thought the ending was pretty good. I didn't know Whedon had it in him to satisfy me like that. |

DAE think it's time for Toho to make another Godzilla movie? | I know they're thinking maybe as early as 2013 to bring him back, but I don't know if I can wait that long. Final Wars just left such a bad taste in my mouth.

Dear Vinyl, I made this to have easy access to my favorite 4-10 records. What do you think? | (a) I'm not an artist
(b) I'm no carpenter
(c) It's not perfect, as it's my first try.
It does hold records, it's strong, it's helpful, it's not horribly ugly (I kind of like it but I like all sorts of weird shit.) Anyway, if I take my learnings from this one and make more do you think anyone else would have interes... |
New rule, humanity: A criminal cannot be the victim of their own crime. | There. No more locking up people for weed, no more children being locked up for exploiting themselves. Stupidity crisis over. |

I've recently gotten very interested in firearms. My family owns 3 -- two rifles and a pistol. Neither of my parents shoot, the guns were just sort of acquired over the years.
Anyway, after I got interested in guns, I decided a fun thing to do would be to take them apart t... |
Losing your mind, an introduction | There is no evidence for gods, angels, demons, ghosts, or any other "spiritual" entities, so all of us good atheists reject them on that basis. What about minds? What evidence do we have that they exist? What about free will?
My experience indicates that the majority of atheists have profound belief in such things. Bu... |
Need some advice deciding on the next step in my get in shape regime. | Little bit of back ground. About 18 months ago I weighed about 260lbs,(5'11/m/mid twenties) changed my eating habits to only Meat/veg/fruit/nuts, and took up running, over the course of 8 months I dropped to 205/210lbs.

Dear Reddit: What is the point of college nowadays when I am pretty much forced to study something of practicality rather than something I'm in love with? | I ask this question because I am graduating this coming May with a Pharm.D. I spent six years in school studying something I have absolutely no interest in (patient care isn't exactly my forte) and I find myself increasingly jaded and cynical about my life post-graduation. I absolutely love technology and computers (go... |

Men of Reddit, what are your thoughts on nail polish and/or fake nails? | I've always felt that I was in the minority here, so I was wondering what other guys thought of it.
I've never really been a fan of colored nail polish. I've always preferred them natural (clear nail polish doesn't bother me). Sometimes colored nail polish can work on fingernails, but I never, ever like it on toes. ... |
Yo Reddit! Where can I find a comprehensive LOST catchup for the new season tomorrow? | I asked the Lost subreddit but apparently no one there knows (don't ask me). I want to find a catch up of some kind for what the hell is going on.

Binary operators over graphs? | What sorts of binary operators on graphs (of different sizes) do you know of? The only one I can think of is the tensor product of adjacency matrices, which yields a somewhat uninteresting monoid. Can we get more elaborate algebraic structure over the set of graphs?

Any of you own a car with a rebuilt engine? How reliable are they? | Considering buying a car with around 100k miles, and having the engine rebuilt.

What idea or passage from a book, scares you more than anything else? | Someone once told me "The Human brain cannot imagine nothingness."
Since then I've spent a lot of time trying but i haven't been able to do it, if you think about it, nothingness is clear, not black or white, because those are something, and the only way the human mind can process clear is to see through it to the ot... |

Dear Reddit: How does one make friends!? | Dear Reddit,
I just got my first real job ever, it's in San Francisco. The only problem is that I grew up in NY, went to college in PA, and moved back home to NY after graduation for an internship. So essentially, I don't know anyone or anything in SF.

[TOMT] Artist who painted cozy scenes of cabins by lakes and such. | I think he was/is an American artist. His works look like the kinds of places you'd want to live for the rest of your life. I believe that the final scene in the film *Minority Report* is based on one of his paintings.

Who's to blame for the financial collapse? | Democrats and Republicans, liberals and conservatives have each had their own ideas of who to blame for the financial crisis.

My girlfriend recently gave me her favorite book, The Alchemist, by Paul Coelho. I am extremely turned off. Is she literary-tarded or have I just missed the (obviously deeply hidden) literary merit of this steaming pile of self-help? | It seems I'm not alone.
Edit: Admittedly, I'm only about halfway through... I'm struggling to finish the book.
In exchange, I planned to give her Ishmael, by Daniel Quinn. One of the main themes of Ishmael is that *you are not the center of the universe*... quite contrary to the philosophy of The Alchemist. |

With Market Shares Lingering around 7.4% Why is Everybody in an Uproar Over Apple’s Apparent Doomsday Device, the iPad? | Has anybody stopped to consider that there might be a reason Apple didn't call it's new device, iTablet, or iTab?

How many are aware the Bible does not mention an immortal soul? | I think this is a piece of trivia that escapes notices all the time. Nowhere is the standard Christian belief in a separate, immortal soul mentioned in the Bible.

I'm married with a couple of kids, and make about $36,000/year (wife stays home with kids), and have about $20,000 of student debt... |
Given all the talk of political corruption and all of the crooks in Washington, are there any politicians you do trust? Who are they? | There has been a lot of talk on here about the rampant corruption in Washington, and I think we paint with a bit too broad of a brush. Sure, a lot of politicians are bought and sold by the corporations from which they should be protecting us, but there are still some politicians out there who are truly committed to th... |
Hey reddit, I need a good starting point and some advice to get into web page design. | I have always been interested in web page design, and have many ideas of what I want to create.

The school has given me a computer to do as I p... |
Hey Reddit, what are some interesting/unique (but completely useless) facts about you? | Please, keep it as useless as possible. "I can speak 5 languages" is fascinating, but obviously doesn't fit here.
-I was born via c-section
-I was born exactly 7 years to the minute after John Lennon died
-I have number-letter-color synesthesia
-The color of my eyes is kinda unique. They're blue/green/grey and cou... |
Feb 2nd - Progress reports. Today's goal: Check you reddit settings. | There are still some people who we haven't heard from that I'm wondering about. Are you making progress or did you decide to quit your endeavor? Either way share your thoughts.
Today I want everyone to make sure that their reddit settings (in the preferences page) look like this. The other thing that you are going ... |
How do I build my own independent internet connection? | Is it possible? I want to connect to the internet without having to rely on any provider. Much like how scientists are working on ways to DIY your home's power supply [solar power, et al.] - is there some research being done to connect to the web without worrying about data allowance/speeds/plans, 'technical difficulti... |
