The Last Behaviorist: September 2013
http://thelastbehaviorist.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
A blog about animal behavior, science, and more. Monday, 9 September 2013. Why World of Warcraft isn't a Skinner Box. The title of my post, for those with an understanding of the concept under discussion, is intentionally controversial. Alternatively I had considered using the title: What are the mechanisms underpinning the partial reinforcement effect? WHAT IS A SKINNER BOX GAME? Games like World of Warcraft are often accused of being Skinner boxes, for example Cracked. The argument, therefore, is that ...

Thinking as a Profession: April 2010
http://thinkingasaprofession.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 3, 2010. To Tablet or Not to Tablet. Anyway, I thought this perspective. On the iPad by SF author Cory Doctorow was pretty interesting, if a little gross:. On the way to the store, I told my girlfriend that what I wanted in an ideal device, besides decent specs and a decent OS, were 3 things:. 1) A nice size, between the tiny netbooks and a full-sized laptop. 2) The inclusion of an optical drive. 3) A touchscreen interface.

Thinking as a Profession: March 2011
http://thinkingasaprofession.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 30, 2011. I recently read Jane McGonigal's Reality is Broken. A plea to change the world by making work and chores more like games. In Slate, Heather Chaplin does a good job of pointing out why this is generally a lame idea. Why not just shoot them up with drugs so they don't notice how miserable they are?

Gondolatörvény: december 2010
http://szoluska.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
2010 december 28., kedd. Mivel karácsonykor nem jutottam géphez :). Utólag is boldog karácsonyt mindenkinek! 2010 december 22., szerda. Az utóbbi hetekben nem csak a blogomra és a barátaimra, de saját magamra se jutott időm. Tudom, hogy erről én tehetek elsősorban, hiszen az időmmel én gazdálkodom. Túl sok mindent akartam egyszerre, és ennek az lett a következménye, hogy sok - számomra fontos dologra - nem jutott elegendő időm. A naptáramban zsúfolásig vannak a programok és határidők. Tegnap este két sír...
