The liters per kg of beef number we often see around is not accurate. It doesn't take into account that most of the water cows need, they urinate it and it goes back into the water cycle. But it could be, even taking account that they

Sorry for the source, but it's only them and the dailymail for now. The dailymail link was removed. I think this is relevant for HN because of the unease of being jewish in the field recently. Bitter irony that Google was founded by 2

This will not change the fertility rate, there was a bump for one or two years after China allowed 2 children, and the fertility rate went down again, and the tfr is at its lowest since it has been calculated. Only ectogenesis could reverse

I am not american, and I wish iranians to have the freedom to chose their government. Most of them hate the islamic regime, this is a country with so much potential, ruined by a Theocracy.

Ectogenesis seem to be the only potential solution, the fertility rate will not go back above 2 in the coming decades in these developed countries.

Is this some kind of a bad joke? Because some countries have BIPOC if they want nukes to not hinder their empowerment nobody should intervene. If all the countries in MENA have nukes, this would be terrible for everybody, it would exponenti

Are they still considered civilians when they work for a military program that threatens Israel existence? My grandfather was a scientist working for the army, he had a salary paid by the military and was part of it.

And this is from 2020, I guess post covid the numbers will be even more dire. Maybe investing massively in ectogenesis is the solution.

Same feeling, in a way I regret to have continued after season 3, I were warned that season 4 was not on the same level as the previous seasons but to continue to watch. Season 3 ended so beautifully.

I would recommend Sam Harris who criticizes harshly the Trump presidency and the Capitol events but who also had the most nuanced view of the BLM protests. I am not american but from the few commentators that I heard, it seems that he is a
