Per extremity.
Greetings fellow Monad.
The icing on the cake: https://www.theguardian.com/science/2020/oct/27/sleeping-gia... Edit: Trying hard to not say something snippy about climate change deniers, with great difficulty. Let me simply suggest possible…
My bedphone experience was not good. Spouse complained about noise leakage, and they stopped working within a month. Otherwise, they _could_ be more comfortable than ear buds depending how well they fit. Most wired…
One of the "doctors" who recently published research on "psychobiotics" was later selling a brand of "clinically tested" probiotics tailored for mood disorders. Gut microbiome studies, at this point in time, need to be…
I think it is (although my comment about populism was not directly solely at the U.S.). As an outsider, I would attribute the poor pandemic response to lack of coherent leadership. The U.S. federal government is…
I got down voted below for expressing a similar sentiment, in harsher terms.
Schadenfreude? More like nauseated disbelief at watching irrational populism and its concomitant intolerance tear the world asunder.
And thank fuck for that. EDIT: Fuzzing or downvoting? Was it the profanity? I do thank fuck for the temporary reduction in incoming vectors during a pandemic.
"Self-made" is an hyperbolic oxymoron propagated by blind worship of the false god named "Exceptionalism". Everyone stands on the shoulders of humanity's past, for better or worse.
Need Charles Bukowski model.
Echoing fretn's comment. This material sounds like a patently bad idea for general commerical use.
True. I completely misread the comment to which I replied. Oops! However, my preference is still to live in a socialist country where the government can be openly criticized.
In western countries you can, in general, publicly mock your leaders on the front steps of your legislature. Try dancing in a Winnie-the-Pooh costume in front of the Great Hall of the People and see what happens...

Not everyone lives in a temperate climate with little precipitation, nor in modern cities with wide streets laid out on a regular grid. I seriously doubt self-driving cars are ready for some of the weather conditions…
Mushy grey stuff.

IIRC CMIP5 models(used for IPCC AR5 2014) did not account for permafrost melt or changes in soil chemistry. Shortly after AR5 was released I remember reading an article or two describing how these exclusions resulted in…
Dunno for certain but possibly moderation by marine conditions i.e. coolish currents.
Nope. But they can further marginalize people with mobility issues.
I have only lurked here for a few years, but from the beginning it seemed to me that the HN zeitgeist is slightly sociopathic. It does not stop me from lurking, however, perhaps because it is one of the last bastions of…
One of the motivations for vegetarianism is to reduce one's carbon footprint. Highly processed products packed in plastic thwart this goal.
And not just _this_ problem.
There was a recent small scale study[1] that suggested taking probiotics could increase the time for the gut microbiota to return to normal. The biggest bang might have been a fecal transplant of cultures taken from…
