Alarm bells? I’m not sure I follow. What’s “this” kind of paper? Their methods seem rational. Many references on previous research are mentioned. Do you think we’re being gaslighted or something? I wouldn’t use this paper to make life decis

Minting and selling can actually cost the price of a meal at a restaurant depending on ethereum fuel prices. The nft marketplaces are making a killing even if your art doesn’t sell. In that sense, there is potential harm to artists who get

There definitely could be multiple reasons people would do this to their tea. I try to avoid teas prepared with chemicals.

I brew in this style and the reason you toss out the first steeping sometimes is not because it’s overbrewed, but because some methods of leaf preparation require the leaf to hydrate and open up before you can get a decent brew. So the thro

Depends on the tea, but I use 4g/125ml water and steep around 10 seconds for the first infusion. If I were to attempt the same with the stuff they put in Lipton tea bags, it would match your description perfectly, but if you use qualit

Dobsonian 10”. Best bang for your buck for deep space casual viewing. 10” is a reasonable size, weight, and price combo.

This reminds me of a natgeo documentary on disney+ called Into the Okavango. It was interesting and I love anything that promotes wild habitats but this came off as more of a production than a documentary.

I’ve been wanting to get into hpc, or just learning mpi. Does anyone think getting two of these refurbished HP Proliant DL360 G7 Servers would be a good value/performance compromise? I like to tinker so the thought of administrating as

I like that approach to “not sweat the small stuff”, but if the community doesn’t speak up about the quality of the discussions, they will inevitably degrade. I really enjoy the intelligent conversations that this site has but recently I’ve

The only reliable dream test that worked for me was trying to put my finger through my palm. In dream world, there’s nothing stopping it and it goes through. Everything else I’ve tried, would lead to me convincing myself why is was behaving

Don’t you need to be able to distinguish it from reality in order to convince yourself it’s a dream? Otherwise, aren’t you just dreaming of lucid dreaming?

Unless I'm reading this wrong, this is incorrect. The nih paper says that influenza deaths represent ~2% of all respiratory deaths, not a death rate. The CDC estimates the death rate of influenza is at most 0.65% (61k deaths and 9.3MM

Hashing passwords has been ingrained into our brains as it's an easy way to reduce risk. That said, sometimes sensitive information needs to be stored in a retrievable format (subscription credit card processing comes to mind). Every d

I've been studying oil painting under a local professional artist. One of the topics that really interests me is composition. Artists go to great lengths to design the placement, colors, texture, etc of objects in a painting to purpose
