Notice the word usually I used. It's about probabilities, and with vastly different probabilities come different burdens of proof. If you had the choice to put something random from the forest in your mouth or something from a chemistr

Chemicals are shorthand for synthetic chemicals. We co-evolved with natural chemicals which means that they're usually not too harmful to us and get easily biodegraded. In this case it's about PFAS, a subgroup of organofluorine co

You don't even need a HEPA filter. A lower grade filter will do fine as well for recirculating air: the idea is to reduce particles by passing the air of the room again and again through the filter. If you have a air source that has mo

Frame material doesn't affect comfort. The extremely stable diamond shape of the frame makes all material differences go away. Where material matters is the seat post (I think carbon has the most flex though and should be most comforta

Nickel 63 decays to stable copper 63 under beta radiation with 66.9 keV energy. Some centimetres are already enough to stop that, with aluminum a millimeter should probably already be enough. The real safety issues is if people pry it open

The difficulty of sandboxes is to offer a usable, useful API to the outside world that is still secure. Operating system processes would perfectly fine sandboxes except for the huge hole current syscalls and other out of process APIs rip.

A house also needs upkeep. Usually that’s around the same amount as rent. In some markets like Munich rent is not even enough to pay that.

Tripling nuclear until 2050 is too little and too late to stop CO2-emissions in the energy sector. And looking at the issues western countries have even just replacing old reactors with new ones, it is also a highly unrealistic goal.

Another place you’ll see weird doses is salts. They have a higher molecular weight than the base chemical. For instance one size is 684 mg Ibuprofen-DL-Lysin. It’s equivalent to 400mg of Ibuprofen.

Another unwanted dependency on Russia is the finished fuel for Russian reactor designs. Luckily a lot of countries start to go to Westinghouse to let them produce an alternative, but as far as I see it’s only for one nuclear reactor design

The biggest logical flaw of effective altruism is valuing potential future lives the same as the lives of existing people. Taking that logic to the extreme it would be okay to kill a person for two additional people being born.

Very simple: as computers get faster, the incentives for reducing the need of resources of software decrease. You used to need to optimise, otherwise the software would be unusable or not fit on a floppy disk. You don't need to do that

It’s not just the beetle that evolved but the termites as well. It probably started out with the termites being pretty bad at detecting their kind and becoming progressively better because of the pressure of that beetle stealing their food.
