    US Election

    "Bookies called it right - PaddyPower paid out last Sunday/Betfair had it 1/4 on on Monday, which backs the view that Betfair is as valid source of likely election results as opinion polls. wisdom of crowds etc." Some pollsters had a pretty good night, it was the political "experts" and journalists who couldn't call it. Their opinions turned out to be no more use than a toss of a coin. http://mashable.com/2012/11/07/nate-silver-wins/ http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/ http://election.princeton.edu/

    Nice to see Donald Trump taking it so well.
  5. Skyfall, better than the last one, but I preferred Casino Royale.
  6. I have a Klout score of 1 which sometimes makes me doubt my own existence. Does anyone know of a reverse Turing test, some way of proving to myself I'm not a self aware bot?
  7. I'm holding my breath in anticipation of a more realistic Taken 3.

  16. Humility maybe one answer to your question, though personally I think humility before your fellow man might be preferable to humility before an absentee creator. I think you need to embrace the warm fuzzy feeling though, whether it's a simple belief or something like the optimism bias surely we all need a bit of irrationality in our lives just to get through the day.
