Be careful with this one. Hard work, applied correctly, is rewarded. Hard work applied incorrectly is not. Examples of incorrect application: * working hard at something not valuable * working hard at something valuable then giving it away

That one’s actually easier. Air circulates much better when there is a temperature difference. A single window opened a crack will generally ventilate most homes or apartments. There will be somewhat higher heating costs but usually not exc

Yeah if you live in a place with pollution outdoors and no indoor HVAC there is a real severe trade off between co2 and aqi If a place is sub say 70-100 in AQI then usually indoors will be 4-13 AQI with windows open but above that you’ll se

Tangentially related: management of these issues would be greatly improved by funding CO2 and AQI meters in relevant spaces Right now people’s attitude to indoor air quality is roughly: can’t see it, isn’t real But if you’re told: * Under 1

Heart attack deaths were steadily falling until the pandemic, over a period when obesity rose massively. Obesity is linked to heart attacks but larger rises than could have happened in past three years didn’t cause a population level of hea

To be clear: I was talking about the past. The original comment covered the whole breadth of human evolutionary history. We vanquished these diseases in the past 50-100 years mostly. My argument is that diseases did not just all become beni

You are using evidence from the present to consider the past. This is not very sensible. There is a long list of diseases we effectively blocked from killing people: * Almost anything bacterial * Measles, mumps, rubella, polio, diphtheria a

Some have theorized this and there certainly are a few examples. For examples syphllis seemed especially severe when it first appeared in Europe, and this was probably because it was a novel disease. But thing is it also is just severe and

People like to accuse him of it. His earliest and wildest claim was that SARS-Cov-2 was widely transmissible and risked becoming a global pandemic if swift action wasn’t taken This was in January 2020. Fortunately, top commentators leapt in

Sure but that's an empathy problem. If you intend to sell anything to anyone you need to change your whole perspective. For example, say someone goes buys a mac because they think the software is pretty and they like having things mana

Here’s a quick tip: remove the word “bullshit” from your personality and assume that people aren’t morons. People obviously do do dumb things, and some stuff is obviously crap. But if you change perspectives a lot of stuff actually….makes

I tried feeding it an LSAT logic game which has multiple explanations on the internet. It got 2/5 correct, and for one answer it said “E, none of the above” E does not say none of the above on this logic game. Though many other differe

I’m not sure the study’s conclusion follows from its data. We lack data on humans because we can’t study infectious dose directly. But they cite multiple animals studies with worse symptoms following higher doses I didn’t spot this notable

I think VR is cool! Really enjoyed playing a zombie game when I tried it. The cricket thing sounds fun. I can readily conceive more people will use it for niche experiences and use cases will grow. But you still didn’t address OP’s point. I

They argued VR total immersion is a niche case. I’m not sure you’re rebutting them? Most people can’t exercise for four hours a day while ignoring their environment, effectively outside of their home. Whereas if you had glasses that let you

Yeah exactly. Continuing to use your muscles so they don’t deteriorate, sleeping a good amount, and eating a decent diet that includes enough protein to sustain them. You will still get less strong with age even if you do this but vast bulk

Yes? Sarcopenia, age related muscle loss, is extremely common, mostly optional, and largely unnoticed by those who have it. It’s associated with many bad health impacts and reduced practical abilities. If your brain is worse you are worse a

Actually the donations may well be clawed back in the bankruptcy proceedings, depending how recent they are.

The article is a little unclear but it appears the assets are being seized because there is a reasonable claim they’re part of the bankruptcy estate of FTX, which isn’t directly related to SBF’s trial.
