A philosophical zombie or p-zombie is a hypothetical being that is

experience, qualia, or sentience. When a zombie is poked with a sharp object
, for example, it does not feel any pain. While it behaves exactly as if it
does feel pain (it may say "ouch" and recoil from the stimulus, or tell us
that it is in intense pain), it does not actually have the experience of
pain as a putative "normal" person d... 阅读全帖 |

周一(1月31日)公布的调查显示，美国1月非农就业人数或有所增加。虽然经济增长

59位经济学家的预测中值显示，美国1月非农就业人数或增加14万人，2010年12月
增加10.3万人。但是美国1月失业率或由9.4%上升至9.5%。失业率连续第21个月超过9%
