If its worth it for you then thats great. But at least the original earth ship requires packing like a hundred or two tires without power tools. There are machines that make bricks out of earth and there is probably a way to use recycled ma

Its best to take and use the principles of it in another house. I personally don't want a bunch of tires breaking down and leaking chemicals and fumes into my house over a couple decades. Also much of the savings are from using your la

Washing your hands is an inherent downside to washing your hands. Its tedious, annoying, and many people get dry skin or are allergic to commonly used scented soaps. There is no evidence that that how regular people wash there hands is effe

No, n95 and better masks have been proven conclusively to protect against it. If your mask isn't fitted right it wont work obviously and surgical masks are not effective. If you are going to be in a poorly ventilated space with someone

You've got a like 1/9 chance of dying by 21 I've heard. It's probably wrong but a decent amount of people die before they are able to have kids so they add a 0.1 to the replacement level.

I mean if you never actually switched to a municipal service than it doesn't really count as a refutation. I thought seattle had issues doing this sort of stuff in general.

I was asking about some details from some of kafka's stories as I hadn't read them in a while and wanted to check but search engines seem useless nowadays. It either said how it is not mentioned or significant and when I say it is

I don't think its just the pressure since meat is mostly water which doesn't compress. Its that they are going from a normal one atmosphere of pressure to 400 atmospheres instantly which is pretty violent.

They we're getting crushed on all sides by the pressure. Its 6,500 psi or 400 atmospheres from normal. There are no remains.

I think you might still run into rejection with that since its like not in sync with their immune system. So it would probably be better to temporarily have them on a pacemaker or mechanical heart while you grow a heart inside of them to re

Pretty sure his version of developed only happened recently is because the climate has been really stable for the last 10k or so years meaning we can actually have agriculture based societies not get screwed when their climate suddenly chan

Organic structures tend to not last thousands of years very well. We simply don't know much besides that they were as intelligent and creative as us. Probably had less intellectual shackles about they could organize and run their socie

Assuming by developed they mean agriculture and the industrial revolution. Probably because the climate has been unusually stable for the last 10-12k years. Many likely did agricultural but when the climate suddenly shifts it means everythi

Not exactly a theory that this field has a higher percentage of autistic people. I think the communication deficit is more of a deficit between non autistic people and autistic people.

They said sf which is strictly different than the bay area as it only has about 1/10th the total population and a significantly smaller fraction of the land. If you want to go from the silicon valley to sf its 45-50 miles.

Sf is dense but SF is and has been for 70 years about 800k people. The bay area overall is around 7.7 million and the greater bay area is 10 million. Places like San Jose which take up a lot of the bay area are almost all suburb. That means

You are correct that all the easily buildable land is filled in, however it is mostly with suburb. San Jose is like 94% single family homes although that likely has decreased slightly since that statistic came out.

Um, children can still spread covid. Even if they have a low chance of dying ignoring that its not binary and you can have long term health effects even if you don't die they can make family members and teachers/staff sick and get
