Reply to comment by Fleinsuppe in Scientists have shown for the first time that briefly tuning into a person's individual brainwave cycle before they perform a learning task dramatically boosts the speed at which cognitive skills improve. by Wagamaga
My intuition is that exposing someone to a flashing light and then asking them to do a timed "where's Waldo" style exercise would actually harm their performance compared to doing it without any light at all. Obviously I could be totally wrong, but to a layman like me it seems like an odd thing to take for granted.

I am not a neuroscientist but the experiment and the headlines don't seem to line up to me
The control group had to do the visual task after the strobelight went off at random intervals. It seems like the study is making claims about how strobing visual tasks in synchronization with peaks/troughs of brainwaves improves performance... but the study didn't measure anyone's performance without the strobing to compare against?

Another trick I've seen is to mix snap caps or even just empty casing into the magazine. Makes it easier to see if you've developed a flinch, because you feel your body anticipating a shot that never happens.

Someone's estate is allowed to override an ascap license? How does that work? Does the estate have to approve every licensee, or do they have to object to each one they don't like manually?

>Does the second amendment enumerate an individual right to keep and bear arms?
Yes
>The right is conferred to the People, not the States. Nowhere else in the constitution would the phrase the People refer to States. Could you please explain how you arrive at the conclusion that it is about states rights?
The first amendment's Freedom of Speech clause is also about the rights of the people, and it's similarly been incorporated against the states for like a hundred years.
Just like almost all of the rest of the Bill of Rights, the courts have determined that if the constitution protects individual from having a right infringed on by the federal government, it also protects indiviuals from having that right violated by they state they're in.

NY's MO is to appeal all the way to SCOTUS then repeal the law before SCOTUS can finish their ruling

The macroevolution work is only possible because of very "micro" things, like new techniques to filter out contamination from ancient DNA samples, the first sequencing of neanderthals and denisovans, etc
