Fortunately, the world is not a movie and there are many ways to contain organisms by making them depend on non-canonical amino acids which do not exist in nature. Making them depend on multiple means that them acquiring the ability to pr

Please excuse my language but I fucking despise most bathroom sinks. What genius decided to make a super short tap that only extends 4cm from the back wall of the sink. What kind of child must you be to actually wash your hands in sinks l

There is also a larger percentage of the population in general that use alcohol, mostly due to drug scheduling

What is the rate per capita? How does that rate compare to other places?

Right, but it's all personal anecdote. Not commentary on studies or research. If the guidelines for the subreddit are to keep things more focused on research it would make sense to me for mods to remove the massive amount of anecdote t

Most of us carry internet connected computers in our pockets now. How difficult would it be to automate setting up a server on android or iOS? Could someone just install an app and have a server available?

There actually are systems that prevent people from becoming successful and it, at least partially, has to do with quality of education for poor people in certain areas. It isn't explicit, but the purpose of a system is what it does

That's ignoring the trees for the forest and saying that forest growth and death patterns are entirely inexplicable because the system is too complex. Psychologists use statistical models because we lack the full understanding of the b

My point was this: Is a cell deterministic? Is the physics on which cells operate deterministic? From my understanding, yes What does that mean for neurons? Those must be deterministic, which means that the complex organisms which cells cre

What is the biological cause for the behavior of seeking any particular opportunity?
342.
by feet 4y ago
Opportunity is only available to those who are in the right place at the right time speaking to the right people. If we consider the fact that the universe is entirely deterministic we can see that the ideas of free will and meritocracy eva

"Taking on risk for whether the property is economically viable" is a funny way of saying "bought a house that a normal person could have purchased and instead charges them a marked up rent"

Sounds to me like the landlord is just a useless middleman. Do we really want those?

>conservatives outnumber liberals by ~40% in the general population! [1] You seem to have misunderstood the article you cited, from the article: >The percentage calling themselves conservative has been steadier over time and, at 36%,

The parent asked about coffee, not pure caffeine. There is a huge difference in concentration

I'm talking about specific biochemical mechanisms such as modifying membrane fluidity and getting attached to proteins in post translational modification

Because they've made so much progress on autonomous driving, right?

Fatty acids are used for far more than just energy
354.
by feet 4y ago
I'm surprised you don't mention lipid modifications of proteins or membrane fluidity, are those not significant functions?
355.
by feet 4y ago
I have a few clarifying questions: What else are fatty acids used for? What are the metabolic pathways involved and how do different fatty acids impact our cells? Can you cite sources for your claims? Research is a passion of mine and I wou

So stop contracting the work out. Have a government department handle it instead of just chucking it off to the lowest bidder

I personally think it's hilarious and wonderful, if I were Dave I wouldn't see any reason to sue. It's honestly a great move
