Here's an interesting article about how someone did not find solace in Buddhism. Feel free to express your opinion in a reply. slate.com/culture/2003/02/why-…
I personally think that there are some common misconceptions that might have influenced the author's views, e.g. the way he understands the definition of attachment, enlightenment, views on reality, but it's always so interesting to see differing opinions.
For a 2,500-year-old religion, Buddhism seems remarkably compatible with our scientifically oriented culture, which may explain its surging popularity...John Horgan (Slate)

I'm not saying the very same dinosaur was stomping around in both Cameroon and Brazil...but it's possible.

In case you missed it, Apple has been using age limits to unfairly discriminate against third party browsers:
A collaborator found out that the US State Dept is seeking public input on whether "satellite signature reduction" should be subject to ITAR regs.
Translation: should satellite operators who make their satellites fainter (in order to not destroy the night sky quite as much) be allowed to talk about how they did it?
So some of my collaborators and I put together a quick and easy template for you to email the US State Dept and tell them this shouldn't be secret info:

Premiér Petr Fiala (ODS) uvedl, že považuje svoji vládu za nejúspěšnější v české historii a chce příští rok na podzim vést koalici Spolu do voleb a znovu kandidovat na premiéra.Oldřich Danda (Novinky)
"Premiér Petr Fiala uvedl, že považuje svoji vládu za nejúspěšnější v české historii."
Byl jeden světový politik, jmenoval se Biden a ten taky tvrdil, že jeho vláda je velmi úspěšná. A ona objektivně v mnoha ohledech úspěšná je, ale když se tváříš, že je vše "nadmíru výtečné", a nepřiznáš, že i tak můžou mít lidi problémy, i když za ně tvoje vláda ani přímo nemůže, prohraješ volby.

This one’s quite important, thespinoff.co.nz/atea/25-10-20….
While Māordom has been in an uproar about the Treaty Principles Bill, which New Zealand First MP Shane Jones says is “dead in the water”, the coalition government has quietly set the wheels in motion for at least 28 pieces of legislation to have their Treaty clauses reviewed and potentially removed.
Key terminology here is “investors.” This seems like just the right sort of trickery perfected by conservatives in America.

Shane Jones has the Treaty clause in the Conservation Act in his crosshairs – and it's just one of an estimated 28 laws set for review.Liam Rātana (The Spinoff)

I think he is looking for something that science can prove to be right, the same way it proved that humans technically have two brains which the Chinese knew for thousands of years through martial arts, the Tao, etc. Also categorising Buddhism as a religion while it's really not.
