If it helps you it's great. I was drinking tons of coffee daily from my teenage years to my mid-20s. I didn't feel any ill effects from it. Now in my early 30s, it causes anxiety. I don't know how or why, but it's scary

Who is going to oversee your work and judge you? Who is going to coordinate your department? Who is going to resolve disputes and problems? At best, someone who doesn't really know who you are and what you do and doesn't have enou

One thing I learned the hard way in life is that unusual solutions can lead to unusual problems. Keto is very unusual and very recent, despite what people want to believe.

Tried in oxford. Essentially it's a scheme to privatize public roads creating gated communities and ghettos. Can't be scrapped fast enough. If you want to turn streets into pedestrian only zones do so, but making them accessible t

Yep. And the issue is that because AI will depend on some form of expensive ASIC, AI compute and knowledge storage will be heavily centralized, guarded and sooner than later we'll start seeing rentseeking behaviour once again.

Ironically you also listed most the reasons I'm not a libertarian. As more things move from the public sphere to the private one, there's less transparency, not even a hope of public control (such as providing a moral direction vi

Pumping nitrogen into the ground produces food. As for the long or short term question, we're amputating our foot because we predict that a minor cut will be infected. Knowing what you don't know is the key here. Right now no one

I would be funny if it wasn't horrifying. We're all shooting ourselves on the foot while other countries can only dream of achieving the industrial, technological and economical progress we've made. Deindustrialization 30,40,

It'll be interesting to see where this leads to. Probably a much worse web and less accurate information. As soon as online info became a source of income through advertisements counted by clicks, clicks increased and the info quality

Carbohydrates, fat and protein are the 3 main classes of molecules humans need to survive. Sugar is simply a fast absorbed carbohydrate, glucose is basically the very thing that keeps us alive 99% of the time. We are literally build around

Although in theory electronic thermometers can be just as accurate in practice I've found that across brands the measurements fluctuate to an unacceptable degree.

Knowing that my resting body temp was permanently 36.8-36.9 while everyone elses (on the same thermometer) was 36.6 was one of the things that led me realise something was wrong and in fact it turned out I had an autoimmune. Of course the

On top of that, the maximum theoretical COP for a cold source at -30c and a hot side at 35c is 4.7. Real world heat pumps usually get half of that, possibly even less for this extreme delta t, so around 2. Natural gas tends to cost less tha

Why not buy the additive and put it in the fuel on your own? What's the point of buying higher octane ratings than your engine calls for?

It is naive to think the rise of cryptocurrencies will help anyone but large companies specialised at scamming retail investors, and of course criminal organisations. As bad as the IMF policies might be, this isn't the solution.

Head cleaning is a legit necessity with inkjets, and avoiding clogging is probably why it doesn't power off fully. Of course that doesn't negate all the other scams, like the cost of ink or the refusal to work with third party i
