Predicting human behavior

I was reading this book on the extent of the seemingly insignificant nonverbal behaviors influencing the perception of others and I thought it was interesting. I think that subconsciously, people pick up certain behavioral cues, without even knowing about people. This would lead to creating preconceived notions and "I don't know why, but I don't like him/her." Usually it's something small.

We've all been there, either in school, or our workplace. We have seen this happen. Entire movies and TV shows have been made on this situation.

The other place this is common in is places of study like schools and universities among students. Teachers tend to focus on students who do badly in school and never seem...

Hello Internet

What’s up? And the internet replied, “ Quarantine “. On January 11, 2020, China announced to the world the first death from the COVID-19 virus. Since then, a lot has happened. Jobs vanished, economies were brought to their knees, currencies dropped and beloved stars were lost to history. Hundreds died and thousands were infected. Many businesses went out of order. Yet, the human race trudged on. Almost every country on the planet locked its borders down. Issued out a curfew and enforced it with aggressive passion. The largest pandemic of the 21st century had impacted thousands of lives in every country, in every continent. People were made to stay in their homes. A single word gained more popularity than Einstein ever had. That word: Quarantine . Musicians and artists took to the internet to reach their fans and showcase their art. Charities shot up in support of the unfortunate victims to the corona-virus. Social Media had never seen such large usage rates before....
