Which ads? The links I see are either to her other blog posts or to scientific studies. For example, the "cold brew method", "French press", "better water for coffee making", and "pressurized portafilter b

I hear about medical tourism but not so much dental tourism. I wonder why?

A dentist once told me that it's worse for my teeth to sip a soda or a coffee slowly over several hours than to chug it all at once. I wonder if it was suggested because patients might actually do that, compared to not drinking soda or

Seconding this question. I have had great experiences getting glasses from Jins, which has locations in the US and in Asia.

Have you been at a low dose for a long time? Is there something you do to reduce tolerance?

I haven't been able to get modafinil for ADHD (n=1). I have heard of people getting prescriptions for modafinil because of their work schedules (e.g. being tied to the hours of a stock exchange in a different time zone).

The article calls this a "historically high fine". It's also really small compared to the scale of YouTube dollars, i.e. for YouTube to care (about this fine in isolation).

End of flight weigh ins incentivizes dehydration during the flight. It's possible some people will actually get healthier. However, it's also much easier to lose 10lbs from dehydration and pooping than from losing fat (from my exp

As a person who has done weight cuts for weigh-ins, I imagine weighing in at the gate leads to hungry, dehydrated people who get weighed and then immediately eat and re-hydrate. I'm not sure plan bathrooms are suited to the consequence

Depending on the age of the kids, I wouldn't be surprised if some of the kids had bought likes, too.

The tobacco industry made a lot of money back in the day. That's not the same as adding value to society.

Back in the day, I used to spend ~$20 for a pair of rainboots, and they would invariably leak within a year. This stopped happening when I bought ~$50-$100 rain boots, which are certainly not grocery store boots. A $50-$100 pair of rain boo

I'm going through a switch to (hopefully) research. I left my job and started a PhD. I'm not sure I'd recommend it, as it depends on what you're looking for; it's a sharp pay cut during the PhD, and not necessarily

In the plot where x-axis is man's age, and y-axis is eligible dating pool population, 'peak' refers to the age (place along the x-axis) at which the man's eligible dating pool is largest (highest along the y-axis). This

Surprisingly, the peak age for a man seeking women is around 50, but the peak age for a man seeking [women with jobs] is around 40.

Yes! I have found this to happen a over lockdown with my housemates. Not surprisingly, I recommend communal living.

I wonder if there are socioeconomic indicators in writing style, too. I wouldn't be surprised if there were, even if we consider only text in which grammar and spelling are correct. (As a small example, there are ways to sound more or

This was not at all the article I was expecting given the title! Given that it's HN, I was expecting projections on when AI will take over which jobs in which order.

Not to be unfriendly, but perhaps _you're_ projecting your desire to avoid your coworkers on to others. I think both you and the person you responded to make interesting points, both of which I can see myself relating to at different p

Teaching and nursing, which iirc are dominated by women, also have serious stress and burnout while paying less than tech. I also suspect the parent comment wasn't referring to tech and finance as the dangerous male-dominated jobs.

I was at a (seated) concert once, and the large family next to me would sign to each other to communicate without making noise. Signing has some nice advantages over whispering: you can sign to an entire group at once, but you can only whis

I've had what added up to a full day of interviews (and meals) on several occasions. In some cases there were many interviews since I was meeting many people on the team, which I would think is a good sign of culture, as opposed to one
