As someone who is in MA and has a fair amount of experience with psychedelics, I don't think they are likely to trigger a relapse of other drugs. I won't say that there is never a risk of addiction to LSD or Mushrooms (I met someo

That quote is mindblowing. I don't think I've ever heard an argument for free will on a sub-atomic level. It never crossed my mind that that was a position someone could conceivably hold. But it's weirdly comforting- it almos

isn't that more bundling, not unbundling? Instead of having to budget extra for fuel and car maintenance, it's "included" in the cost.

I agree. This is one of those things that feels like real science fiction. It feels like the researchers are playing God with parts that they have no idea how they work. I think I'm in favor of this work, but it is alarming.

I'd never heard of Cliqz before, but just did a couple of test searches, and I'm honestly super impressed with the results. I found the result relevancy seemed to be closer to Google than DDG/Bing

I don't know a huge amount about the manufacturing of the materials, so I'm not sure. The binding material may also be different for CLT.

It burns slowly enough that it doesn't conflagrate like unprotected hardwood or plywood might, so there's much more time to evacuate. If the fire isn't put out quick enough, however, the building may lose its structural integ

The answer is basically that they don't know at this point. (Reference: I did extensive research on CLT as part of a project in LA a few years ago and talked to CLT experts from the Wood Products Council) CLT is stiffer than plywood, a

That's actually not that far off from what many cities end up spending per-ride for lesser-used bus service The best way to reduce costs is likely to get more people to use the service, which will result in more trips being shared with
