Scientifically speaking, is coding a good way to earn money?

No.14258559 ViewReplyOriginalReport
I don't personally care about coding (even though I've known how to code for probably 5 years or so), but is it a good way to make money long term? I really only care about making money, not any of the crap about "pursuing your passion". What is your scientific opinion?

Evolutionary psychology may be able to explain this phenomenon. Women evolved to be dependent and choosy due to their greater parental investment. This caused men to evolve to be taller and stronger in an evolutionary arms race competing for mating opportunities. In response to this, women are thought to have evolved to choose the strongest and most dominant man available to be protected from men attempting to coerce them into sex, male violence in general (bodyguard hypothesis; Wilson & Mesnick, 1997)
Okay then why don't we have people who are 12ft tall have have hyper strength.

When it comes to things like "Reviving" extinct species that are older then a couple thousand years is the only way to bring them back making their close relatives forcefully evolve?
We can make animals Pygmy by keeping them in small spaces with less food then normal and their kids will be small as well.
Which is fucked up but it werks.
Of course it would take decades to centuries but I think it would be the only way/

Why 4 points why not 2

>A sphere is uniquely determined by four points that are not coplanar

Why do you need 4 points to determine a sphere, why not just the top and bottom, then you can determine the centre (the middle point between the two)

When writing a book, can you use short quotes in the book if you just source the secondary source of the quotes?

For instance, one short quote of two sentences I have is sourced to a YouTube clip that is of a local TV news show segment, but I can only source the YouTube video because I do not even know how to find where and how it originally aired. Or could this become a copyright issue?

Similarly, another quote is sourced to another book where it is found, but the original source of the quoted material, according to that book, is apparently in some video clip from forever ago that I have not seen (or can find) myself.

Are these things still fine, can I just source that book and that YouTube video for the quotes, or can I get into copyright trouble if I do not say, as well as I can, where the originals are from? Any other authors here who has encountered similar issues?
