> If you were to replace your body, your brain would necessarily be the same age
You could replace small parts of the brain with new parts piece by piece over time and maintain a continuous consciousness so a sense of self is kept. Whether it'd be really _you_ at the end of full replacement is up for debate.
> but it still doesn't mean your rights are being trampled.
Where did jsf666 say their rights are being trampled, you've just invented that unless they've edited their post. This is like strawman the post. On topic it's hilarious that he/she's complaining about downvotes for airing opinions against the hivemind then gets downvoted for that opinion. Way to prove them wrong. (jsf666 comment is currently greyed out)
Sorry but this is nothing like the 2015 election. Tories won with 36.9% because the other parties got even less (30.4%, 12.6%). Even with proportional representation they would have "won" and probably would have formed a majority coalition government with LibDems/UKIP and co.
I remember a time when constantly trying to shoehorn politics into completely unrelated online conversations was seen as a very American phenomenon. I'm starting to see more and more of it from my fellow Brits lately though. Sorry to drag the thread even further off topic...
If that is the case then I agree I was mistaken. However, in that case since neither party had a majority (in this case I mean 'a majority of the british public', not 'a majority in comparison to the other parties') a revote should have been had.
Guy complains that working for massive company X isn't very motivational, decides to leave. This isn't something unique it happens in every industry out there, especially tech. I don't get why this post has the amount of votes it has.
