Things that you put on your skin often do not stay obediently there indefinitely. They find their way into your mouth, and as skin products dry they often become particulate matter that is eventually inhaled. This is especially true of make

The severe consequences of business as usual emissions with no mitigation will easily be felt within the lifespan of even the oldest Millennials and probably a great deal of Gen X. Gen Z and Millennials' children are looking at inherit

It makes sense to pursue technologies that can pivot from expanding humanity's potential to simply guaranteeing survival. But only the former is what people are going to want to hear about, while the latter is where we seem to be headi

Carbon neutral is not enough at this point to prevent a great deal of climate change. It just extends the timeline enough for us to figure out something better. Negative emissions technology is going to be necessary because the sheer quanti

If the wealthiest are de facto not paying as much tax, proportionally, as the middle or poorest classes, then federal income tax is not truly progressive. It has been increasingly regressive since the peak marginal rates back in the 1950s.

That is not what progressive taxation means, by definition. When lower income earners pay a higher proportion of their income than higher income earners, that is a regressive tax structure. https://www.investopedia.com/ask

Government will always be usurped by unrestrained capitalism, as that is the most competitive action. The dualistic thinking of your comment ignores this inherent flaw of having a system with basically unlimited potential concentration of w

It's really funny how all of the "failures" demonstrate more innovation successes than the impacted industries have had for decades. It's also apparent from the swarms of histrionic, doomsaying sponsored content out ther

Universal healthcare is a goal and a problem to be solved, not a plan in and of itself. There are many ways to achieve it that have been successfully practiced in many other countries. If you genuinely want an explanation instead of playing

You can use toothpaste with some of the other enamel supporting materials popular overseas, like nano-hydroxyapatite.

You could try a dental probiotic. I got slightly better gum gap scores when I was using this one, though I stopped because I thought it was upsetting my stomach a bit. Probably going to try it again after that recent research on gingivitis

The Martian dust also contains a lot of toxic perchlorate, which could cause thyroid issues if it gets into the habitats. https://www.space.com/21554-mars-toxic-perchlorate-chemicals...

Disability insurance, like other insurance, is motivated to find loopholes with which to deny you. Make sure to read the fine print while you're still well and able.

First off, there is no "best" probiotic. The very best thing for your guts is an extremely diverse set of commensal bacteria that have adapted to cooperate with the human body, preferably inherited from your family down many gener

There used to be more shop and home economics style classes to teach practical skills. Not everyone has parents with similar knowledge to pass on even about very practical things, and making that sort of education available could help a gre

You are reasoning backwards. Had the cause been something besides a bone spur, such as a tumor or vascular problem, the X-ray might have missed it. Some things like soft tissue calcification don't show up as well on MRI as on a plain X

I know that EHR companies surely employ both engineers and medical professionals, but are they able to freely innovate and explore, or are they bound to top-down bureaucracy with, as another responder mentioned, misaligned incentives? The k

What was a high titer for you? I actually ordered myself an HHV-6 test and mine was around 16 or so. Also, your story is so familiar. So many attempted treatments and doctors. It's very difficult to find a legitimate doctor on the fore

I would like to hear more about resources regarding the latent viral infection theory. I've been helped a bit by low dose naltrexone in the past and I've been reading a bit about things like vagus nerve infections, but if you&#x27

It still seems very hard to shake the myth of meritocracy when wealth and connections are shown to have greater impact than latent talent, but here's some more ammunition for that argument. It's not that graduating from a prestigi

Political systems depend on power exercised by people to enforce law. When the real power transfers to the wealthy, which in peacetime happens as surely as large masses draw objects into orbit through gravity, they will use that power to dr

Yes, because any system that allows corporate entities to amass significant wealth will see those entities using that power to create and capture regulation for their own benefit. Unless a counter mechanism to mass media and bribing politic

The number of people that will take the time and effort to verify the things that they read or hear pales in comparison to those that cherry pick whatever fits their biases, and everyone is limited in time and attention span. It's a si

Sounds like a good reason to keep that kind of generation in the desert, then. That's interesting, though. I suppose they could just divert some power generation to battery storage for those heaters though, just like nuclear reactors h

It's actually liquid sodium in newer designs, which retains heat well, is stored in an insulated tank, and can generate power using that heat even after the sun goes down. So no, I don't think they're obsolete. https:/&
