I find it wonderfully self-referential that the quote in question can't really be attributed reliably. It's perfect.

The data also indicate that it's likely that: 1. Reducing weight to a healthy level 2. Getting enough vitamin D are very likely to contribute to better outcomes for the disease, and we've known this for quite some time. Not only h

> So get up on your soap box, and get people to the ballot box. I think it's important to understand the context of a statement like this as it pertains to the United States at least. At some point in the last 6 years, the average p

This is, of course, the right question to ask. The good thing is, we can still reasonably act on this data while we wait for more studies to disentangle the cause/correlation relationship. Melatonin is well tolerated, and also produc

I totally agree with your point re: the need for data. I would push back a bit on the rhetorical issues with conflating traditional 'antivaxxers' with everyone who may be skeptical of these vaccines. It's not clear that the

I am not unamenable with the crusty old hams in some regards. Part of the charm of these little slices of the spectrum are that they are are, in some part, the only place where you can meaningfully interact with legacy analog radio technolo

I found that switching to simply using water for bathing most of my body did wonders. Skin feels clean, rarely if ever is it dry or oily. Took a couple weeks to adjust. everyone is different though, YMMV.

If you want a less expensive 'lite' option, you can sign up with the USPS and they will scan your incoming envelopes and email you the images. This at least alerts you when something that should have made it into your mailbox, doe

I'm skeptical of the claim that MS has been A: scanning files on local windows machines and B: forwarding anything concerning to law enforcement. That's a fairly extraordinary claim, and I would like to see the evidence.

It's worth noting that while many of the comments here involve the interesting problem of if drone delivery is viable, the article itself focuses on what appears to be a mismanaged project by Amazon. That is to say, their failure here

I'd prefer it if facebook didn't do this either.

That would still be an effective technique for big-budget films if the net result is an improvement on the state of the art. (Which I think it does seem to be).

It's a tall order. My observation with people with mastery, who switch to a new tool, is that usually: A- something external has forced the change, in which case it's hard for them to be patient/charitable. or B- they like th

The joke in the industry was that NTSC stands for "Never Twice the Same Color".

I wonder if this is a hardware limitation, or a software limitation? Could the average human functionally extend this limitation with a bit of training or adaptation?

The only reason I use Windows at all is that it's the best way to run the applications I need as close to the metal as possible. If it wasn't for that, I'd be in Linux or some virtualization flavor. If all the applications I

Eating leftovers is perfectly fine, and a hell of a lot less wasteful than dumping it in the compost.

I would say that individual 'inflection points' might be incredibly rare. IE: maybe only 1 notable event out of 10,000 is like this. But something like this would only have to play out once or twice far back in history before the

I actually got in pretty good shape playing beat saber last year, as silly as that sounds.

Feeling like crap for half the year seems like a much worse outcome, no?

is 'coherence' a scientific term as it's used here? I would love to learn more about this.

Yikes - sounds like this failure mode needs to be elaborated on.

> What are other examples of when the course of history have balanced on a knife's edge? I suspect that almost all of history does balance on a knife's edge. How far back in history that edge exists, relative to the event is th

I supposed the term 'safe' is pretty relative in this case.

We've definitely achieved progress on this sort of scale with transistor density. Not that it's at all similar, but it's interesting to observe that we do seem to be able to occasionally bring things within our grasp that wou

Would be interesting if paired with the harvesting of energy from a black hole. It is theorized that you can do this 'remotely' by slingshotting a laser around a black hole. This functions the same way a normal gravity assist does
