Does your culture not talk about your ancestors choices and successes, and extrapolate that your current choices affect your great-great-[etc]-grandchildren?
Sexual selection and reproduction has always been a competition, both in nature and in humans. Choosing not to play is an option, but your genes won't continue
Have any anthropologists studied the Darwinian logic of choosing marginal comfort increases over reproducing?
You could proxy a measurement of "amount of globalization" by disruptions in global shipping of food, energy, manufactured goods, etc. Covid caused disruptions, Houthi attacks in the Suez Canal disrupted shipping,…
There needs to be a term for when a replier thinks they're doing clever one-upsmanship, but everyone else sees it as unpleasant misanthropy
AI is about to become really sarcastic, pedantic, and absurdly moralistic
So much wasted energy from the source of generation to the EV motor.. Diesel engines are optimized for towing
Same reason I stopped buying Apple products - they shoved U2 into my iTunes library
The CIA is well aware of out-of-body experiences and remote viewing https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP96-00788R0017002...
There's a major resurgence in US manufacturing jobs now and for the foreseeable future. These are mostly in rural or small town areas, with low COL. Pay is anywhere from $18 - $40 an hour for high school graduates. Lots…
I thought the point was to generate enough electricity to sustain civilization
Yes, as do many things that we need for modern civilization
Westinghouse AP300 is further along as a proven solution than nuscale
We could certainly add more combined cycle natural gas turbines to existing plants to meet demand in geographical regions that are unsuitable for wind and solar. Those generators are (comparative to nuclear) fast and…
Straw man, slippery slope, false dilemma, causal fallacy.. do they teach rhetoric and Aristotelian logic in public schools?
Innovation is seldom compatible with risk aversion. Some folks enjoy the risk
They will continue to roll out in business-friendly less-regulated states
I didn’t realize the ratio was so high but I guess it would explain why the white collar sector doesn’t accomplish anything anymore
Likewise I think non-enforcement of drug laws tacitly permitting people to self-destruct in the streets is really cruel
Because for every functional self-dosing career professional, there's 10 self-dosing tent dwellers living in squalor in every major US city
As a Northern European you’ve been culturally colonized by Hollywood if you believe movie stunts represent reality
It's backbreaking work and there's a labor shortage
Not exactly a subspecies, but lots of evidence to suggest poor health and malnutrition after the switch from hunter-gatherer to sedentary grain eaters https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2106743119
The problem space is the business, and business needs change with the market
I'm guessing these will be powered by renewables?
