How does your buddy feel about the shooter, given his experience with the medical system? Would he approve of you using him as an example of why an elderly woman with a severe, largely untreated nervous system chronic illness, which cannot

I would buy that a wealthy person would have the anger and the resources to learn how to stalk, make a plan, use a weapon. Poverty is a drain on your mental capacity for nearly everything else besides survival. Also I don’t doubt that his m

Sixteen Ways to Defend a Walled City has a protagonist who is reluctant but is forced to face huge stakes, namely the fall of a city at war. Murderbot is interesting for more than its reluctance: the stakes are distinctly different and far

I think that is a new and interesting protagonist tbh. So many are heros or have to develop into heroism. It’s refreshing to just have someone who explicitly doesn’t save the world or similar stakes.

I just think you have shite public transport, mate. I can’t imagine anywhere in nyc you’d have to walk 3 mi to get anywhere?? Sure if I said public transport is strictly superior because I drive a car that breaks down constantly, you’d see

A big problem is that America is huge, and relatively sparse at that. You have to drive just to get to the pub!

Fast fashion clothing increasingly cannot be ironed. But also it’s increasingly hard to buy good quality clothes because of the influence of fast fashion. Even very expensive designers will have shit like unlined coats or thin sweaters. Par

Cerebral hemorrhage over 3 years after a vaccination could actually have another cause not listed here, eg. high blood pressure or poor diet.

That’s a fault of the existing teammates. I always prioritize 1:1 with new members in my team or my sister teams and make myself available for any onboarding or technical questions.

There is a great podcast called the publishing rodeo where they talk about this. One of their episodes covered a minimum viable threshold where if there isn’t enough marketing points (a viral tweet, a lot of followers, marketing money, etc)

This is much better, thanks. I’m far more convinced now.

> diabetics often do better following a ketogenic diet [2] Your citation is a single case study over a short period of time. It does not support your claim of “often”. This is deceptive citation and undermines your arguments.

Neither of these papers are keto diets specifically. It looks like these patients just had way more personal one on one time with their doctors, dedicated group sessions, and carb information. Without actual carb counts there’s no way to kn

I agree root veggies are cheap, but root veggies aren’t necessarily healthy! They’re obviously healthier than straight white bread but if your diet is primarily root vegetables you run into high carbs and the like still. Roasted carrots and

I actually find vegetables to be a little expensive now. Particularly leafy greens can be expensive if you want to consume or cook a volume that’s actually satisfying and significant. A curry spinach can run you 4-6$ for just the spinach.

I’m confused why you’re claiming this is a personal politics issue. The journal is funded by these institutions where the protests are happening, and presumably this means the faculty and academics funding them are also the ones being arres

I think this is unintuitive to me, because “dying with Covid” makes the assumption that the person was actively dying from a completely separate cause and got Covid before they died… which isn’t necessarily true for folks with underlying he

The machines can buy the products. We already have HFT, which obviously has little to do with actual products people are buying or selling. Just number go up/down.

The risk isn’t anxious kids with involved parents that can gently push them into activity. It’s kids with not enough food at home and no one at home to give a shit bout them.

I blame this squarely on the congress. Congress has been the weakest it’s ever been, passing almost nothing substantial. If we had to rely on them to ensure basic things like drug approvals we never have anything. They can barely get fundin

Weird take. We know communal lynchings happened; people literally took family photos by them! People happily documented that hangings were the town spectacles when they happened! Let’s not play rose tinted glasses about communities before s

I’m not sure I agree with this take that technology is taking away community in general. I think communities are simply changing. I mean HN is a community and it’s all technology. IRC is a ton of fond memories for me in a time where my irl

Also it used to be the case that beating your own kids was normal. Of course now we got studies about how that screws kids up, but it was ubiquitous in my generation. And now that we can identify that children can be harmed from physical vi

I admit some confusion of the idea that Toni Morrison is successful only because she was taught in schools. Schools aren’t known to push literature in classrooms published within that year on a nationwide scale (outside of specifically libr

Interesting, I bike regularly and feel it has exacerbated issues with my leg tendons in general, around my knee, causing pain!
