Might have missed it but was disappointed to see no mention of externalized costs like the scraping burden imposed on every IP-connected server. From discussions on HN this sounds quite substantial. And again, why…
Shame is the Protestant enforcement mechanism for guilt.
Early seventies here, can extend and confirm your observation. Also flying cars, artificial intelligence, fusion power, equitable wealth distribution, ...

Further to the Hygiene Hypothesis based approach, add exposure to cattle. They are another common factor during evolution and have a microbial footprint unlike common pets. Over years there have been a number of studies…
Summary: biology uses chemical signalling. Signals can be used for multiple purposes by different critters.
A "small picture" local observation of impact: Big construction firms and projects scoop up all available workers and materials (concrete, for example) with year-long exclusive contracts. Individual homeowners with…
Definitely for anyone living in an environment that contains animals. Vastly more so for anyone connected to the Interwebs. Soooo many videos of animals responding to music by dancing. Trying to portray this as…
