I agree, whether or not meat is good or bad for you is a question that shouldn't consider environment impact. Questions like: Whether one should eat meat, whether the government should enact policies which discourage meat production,

Add to this list: 1. We allowed KIDS to use social media all day?? 2. We allowed the climate & oceans to get this bad?? Hard to predict the list of things our descendants will not approve of but looking backwards there's a huge l

I didn't see brain size linked directly to diet here, only saw it on the infographic. In another study recently, I saw brain size linked to the challenge of hunting large animals (like cave bears and mammoths)

I would say 95,000 years is plenty of time to begin to develop adaptations in diet. If as a species our survival was still threatened by starvation for another 100k years we might see more adaptation towards meatless, but that seems unlike

Mainframe replacement is a non goal I think for reasons others brought up. Mainframe languages can be implemented in a language runtime like .net or jvm. I believe this has already been done with cobol and allows you to interop with new c
