   I heard a really good interpretation of this recently. In all these infinite universes, surely there's one where there's an ice cube in the middle of the sun, since that's one possible configuration of matter. But no! There&#

   On one hand that's bad. On the other hand, not eating them might actually increase your risk of cancer. Perceived risk from harm due to pesticides on food is overestimated by many people, and the risk of not eating more fruit and veg

   Yep. There's an effort called the True Health Initiative where they got a bunch of doctors to basically say "eat more vegetables". http://www.truehealthinitiative.org/ https://www.foodnavigator-usa

   It seems like Bluetooth is safe, and using a phone with a headset might be the safest combination. https://youtu.be/AnOm_nTupGg

    There are degrees of hummous. I'm sure store-bought is made with lots of oil. When I make it at home it's mostly chickpeas with a little tahini, usually about 1tbsp per carton of beans. Tahini = ~90kcal / tbsp Chickpeas = ~15

    The way I've often heard alcoholics talk about it is that despite their effort, the disease is always there. There's always a voice saying "have a drink" that they have to constantly guard against, even after such a long

    The nice thing about the 787 Dreamliner is that the windows don't have physical shades. They have remote controlled dimmers that the crew can operate centrally.

    This is a great companion to the documentary "Zero Days", which gives a lot of political context to stuxnet, and has a good discussion at the end about the ethics of using offensive cyber weapons. https://www.imdb.com&#

    I often notice this effect when lying in bed with one eye open, and the other closed on the pillow. The closed eye will be bluer, the open redder. My own theory (backed up by nothing but a hunch) is that the closed eye adjusts its white-bal
