Both humidity and temperature matter, it's a complex thing going on. But yes I'm mostly in a dry environment doing this, I haven't tried it anywhere that was warm and humid at the same time. It helps a lot to not seal…
I've gone without a fridge for 8 years now and do something kind of like this usually - I'll cook a pot of food and then steam or boil it again after ~24 hours to reset the clock on it rotting. It's handy for things…
Can confirm, have made hundreds from playing music after four years of several hours a day. Still probably only made 25% the cost of instrument and strings though.
Parent's question isn't answered in the article - no figure is given for how many deaths under 30 there are as a baseline. From the article: “We estimate that since its introduction [in 2008], HPV vaccination has…
Totally agree - I don't mean to promote or defend all NIMBYism - and a lot of it is simply "I got mine and don't want to share". And there's also something to be said for NIMBYs protecting the habitat they live in or…
Didn't read the article, but regarding the title, this is kind of fundamental. NIMBYs want to protect some aspects of a particular place usually because it is their home. Capitalism largely lives on destroying…
I'm sure someone is thinking that job loss needs to be gradual enough that they can get technology to the point of having killer drones ready to take out any individual instantly, before any uprising threshold is…
There are clinical tests for systemic inflammation. But there are also lots of potential causes of systemic inflammation, so testing for high inflammation consistently will tell you there's something wrong, but not what…
Technically extra virgin olive oil should not be refined. I'm always a little dubious because of the financial incentive to cut unrefined oil with some amount of cheaper refined oil, but I don't have any idea how much…
There are tons of possible symptoms because systemic inflammation including from dietary causes basically damages the entire body. But here's a list of some common symptoms from one source: persistent pain, chronic…
Good point, there are a lot of diseases of civilization that have been with us since large scale agriculture, that did not afflict most hunter gatherers.
Absolutely agree. I don't think I'd want industrially prepared stuff fried in tallow either. There is a chemical distinction in that tallow is mostly saturated fat which doesn't oxidize nearly as easily, so it might be…
Any isolation of certain compounds from whole food from other compounds would be part of what I refer to as processed. In the case of refined oils, I'd call it ultra processed just because of how much is removed - even…
Two things can be harmful at once. I am curious which is worse in terms of contribution to modern chronic metabolic disease. In the case of ultra-processed/refined oils though, there is an argument to be made that these…
Much olive oil is not refined or ultra processed, but in the US market, 25%+ is. According to https://www.imarcgroup.com/united-states-olive-oil-market 10% of olive oil in the US market is refined using the same hexane…
A slightly different and no more charitable perspective is that the people pulling the president's strings are the same people pulling Fox News's strings.
Personally I don't trust big pharma or the natural or alternative medicine people who want to sell me things. Pharma has shown itself untrustworthy too many times, and in general I don't trust big institutions with…
Yeah.. there should be a prompt that gauges how savvy the user is, and if the user doesn't understand the implications of this, the default should be low precision location data with a random offset per item + random…
This represents 0.6% of meta's 2025 profits, or 0.2% of revenue. Though presumably it was based on harms from previous years, I haven't read the lawsuit.
Or further, the bets themselves could be an attempt at market manipulation.
Vetted by who? To be clear I'd be very much in favor of scientific studies and their data having to be publicly available. But on any controversial area, which is most of the areas anyone cares about, there will be 2+…
Study Finds 82 Percent of Avocado Oil Rancid or Mixed With Other Oils https://www.ucdavis.edu/food/news/study-finds-82-percent-avo... "In three cases, bottles labeled as “pure” or “extra virgin” avocado oil contained…
FWIW pea protein as used in beyond burger is extracted from peas in an industrial process - it isolates the protein from the rest of the pea. Your point on cooking is fair. And, I'd still argue that modern processes…
No it is not. Different kinds of fruits from around the world may well have more in common with each other than categorically new synthetic compounds which are found in processed food. Pretty much all people ate real…
I agree it's probably healthier to eat wild meat or homegrown meat grown on healthy pasture than it is to eat feedlot meat grown on whatever they feed them there. There are lots of differences between them. Not…
