Long story short, it seems like music is evolving based on the challenges posed by TikTok and Spotify, and other streaming/sharing services. Like other commenters have written, this article also mentions that shortening songs isn'

That's not what it says. I will give you an example. Before the 1980s or so when the first serious studies on second-hand smoke exposure were conducted, anybody could have also written that "we cannot provide a definitive causal l

I do not think it is much better. I like Waze when I want to aggressively avoid traffic when driving. But Waze doesn't let me save offline maps. Also, I think Google Maps might have better voice navigation when it comes to specific lan

I think I count as one of the six. Since I live in an expensive and affluent area, I think I am one of the few people who lives close to where they grew up. In my opinion, moving away gives you more opportunity and life experiences. It is a

You would think people would know this by now, but I guess these sorts of studies are seeing if "lowering the standards" for exercise still has enough of a beneficial effect. If we could get away with it, I think most of us would

I think this study is examining the elderly, nonexerciser population so they are seeing if VILPA could be some sort of substitute for not dedicating time to exercise.

I think about what I would do if I were in the situation of these men. If possible, I wouldn't engage with scam victims at all. This sounds impossible though because there are those situations where your workplace security team or rela

I would think "A" is a good way to proceed. This might be a silly question, but I wonder how it affects us if we send this reminder message to everyone versus just the people in our sample who we know have not responded yet. I kno

I agree. Now I feel very attuned to any instances of the verb "to be" that I encounter in writing because to me they seem to inspire overgeneralizations. Yes, thinking and writing like this can interfere with readability.

I am just a layman (per my user name) so I'm not clear what the dangers are with doing this. I am already aware that these language models can be very racist and sexist. It also makes sense to me that Stack Overflow would ban AI-gener

It seems like it would be fun to watch people play this. What would happen if one player cheated by using the same engine that was selected at the start and consistently picked the second, third, fourth, or fifth engine move? I don’t think

I have noticed a few of these headlines in the news but I didn't really pay them any mind because of how the world population is actually still increasing. But then I did a quick Google search and found out that the rate of growth is s

After reading your comment, I think you have captured some of my own thoughts about consequences and deserts (i.e., worthiness or entitlement to reward or punishment). I agree with the other comment that replied to you that says that thinki

This wasn't what I was expecting, but I still was fascinated by that Slate article embedded in the page about the "Police Beat Algorithm".

I have no idea what goes into making these plant-based meats, but I vaguely remember that for Impossible Foods specifically, that they had to do a lot of experimentation and genetic engineering of a yeast to make their product. I think that

It is interesting how they mention in the article that some Deloitte analysts think there is a segment of consumers who think this plant-based meat is "woke" or is otherwise related to politically-left leaning ideas. I think this

Same here. But also I got confused because I remember it being spelled with an "e" near the end.

This comic really reminds me of the pilot episode of the cartoon "A Kitty Bobo". It's the same sort of premise where the main character gets a cell phone before his friends do and he ends up falling into awkward situations ev

Interesting, I had never heard of this tip before. How do you do this though? Do you just add it at the end like a flag? (e.g. "sparking water -best" ?) In general, I thought these kinds of search engine commands were being phased

Reminds me of Peachtree City, Georgia, where a lot of residents get around by driving golf carts and there's lots of paths and parking to accomodate those golf carts.

I am noticing the same thing too, but only on the Internet. I don't really hear so much about these "doomer" topics when I speak with people in the physical world. I struggle with how to feel about this kind of prophetic, ser

This reminds me that I had seen some other article about how sometimes, projects to plant a bunch of new trees are not successful because of maintenance or upkeep costs that may not have been thought out.

Is it accurate to say that the YouTube algorithm (and possibly the algorithms of other sites like TikTok) are creating personalized holes for people to fall into? I feel that way. I recognize that I sometimes get algorithmic recommendations
