It's a tough call. Newton connected third dimension (up/down) to the other two; Einstein connected the fourth (time) to the other three. They both were impactful, even creators, of multiple fields of physics (sorry about the pun)

I think you've warned us off before— you and I may have even communicated privately. Thank you.

The New England Journal of Medicine study that came out in the early 2000s (I don't have a citation for you) concluded the opposite: It's the alcohol that kept the arteries clear. Their study was motivated by the observation tha

I'm very jealous of you folks for whom this hour shift is a momentous change in sleep patterns. For me it's in the noise.

Did you self-medicate, or were you under the direction of a medical doctor?

I haven't made the transition but know a few creatives— some of whom hold down other jobs (including my wife). I think the standard advice is to try it as a hobby instead of taking the plunge. See if you can make it work at any scale

He's saying that you have to include the energy you put into the system to remove 1% of the electrons in your E=mc^2 calculation.

I also have to wonder if the market size for this a truly anonymous email truly is. Who would go out of their way to pay for more expensive email that was untraceable? How many reporters? How many "freedom fighters"? How many la

There may have been some shenanigans, of course, but some of the claims I heard came from misunderstanding the hospital classifications. Hospitals got economic relief from Covid because they couldn't take in other patients for fear of
