   So, to be clear, the real problem here is the "upvote this so that when people search..." meme that you inadvertently created. :)

   Wow. The island with just two families that you have to get to by helicopter is hard to wrap my head around! It seems like using a helicopter to go anywhere would be expensive... and yet, they must use it for all kinds of things. If I hadn&

   Not meaning to answer for jedberg, however, melatonin production declines naturally with age. The truth of the matter is that sleep hygiene (especially management of light) is probably a lot more important for him than his children. Another

   Hope no one uses that sink beside you. A "Biffy" toilet attachment is very convenient to install, inexpensive, and potentially a lot more considerate to others.

   Morphological changes seem to happen very early in domestication. Anyone interested in this should read about Belyaev's fox domestication experiments... super fascinating! http://www.bbc.com/earth/story/201609

   In that case, the only incentive they have for you to fail is to pack more gym memberships in the same square footage. Still, I think as a perverse incentive it's a lot more indirect.

    Interesting hypothetical: maybe the state should pay someone with an open mind (like you) handsomely to have him as a new roommate and keep an eye on him.

    My understanding is that Visbiome is also thought to be a comparable product that has the same formulation.

    I think the evidence is pretty strong at this point that 2nd hand smoke has real health consequences.

    Are you working with or have you considered working with the folk at mushroomobserver.org? They have an absolutely enormous dataset. Hundreds of thousands of cataloged observations!

    So one of the acceptable scenarios is also that you arrive at the bar and it begins to rain... then you take an umbrella even though you didn't deposit one? Is that right?

    It's actually worse than that. They seize your credits if you don't make a call (or text) that uses the credits in six months... it doesn't matter if you've been on skype or not.

    That would be great! The hundreds of off-target mutations thing is a little bit concerning, however.[1] I hope this doesn't turn out to stymie the potential for a delightfully scifi future. [1] https://sciencealert.com/

    Great interview. I thought his comments about the upper limits of human lifespan were especially interesting: > There currently is an upper limit, and the upper limit is probably around 115, 120. You have a very large number—100 billion

    Interestingly, this has been the approach of a dietary study being conducted by a group doing research on a circadian-focused pattern of eating. The study uses a mobile app as part of their distributed clinical trial design. Participants ta

    There's also cheap retrofit bidets on the market ("Biffy" is one.) The Japanese Toto toilets, however, are great.

    Those things are no doubt playing a huge role, but as a person increases their consumption of meat they may also be crowding out fiber. Fiber is substrate for the microbiome. Listen to what Dr. Justin Sonnenburg out of the department of mic
