Sure, it's also possible the universe immediately surrounding us was teeming with life a billion years ago and we just missed it all anyway. We can only try our best with the current means we have available.

I mean, of course we might be missing out on things we can't technologically grasp yet... but even if we knew it existed we wouldn't know what to do with it yet.

Dry water in cosmetics just takes a little compression — you rub it on your skin and you get the liquid within and some insubstantial amount of byproduct from the coating the liquid was stored in. Also, the coating is gas permeable, so you

I'd be interested in reading more studies about this, but anecdotally I feel like this has to be true. I live next door to a large house with 8 college students, and two have them claimed to have ~never~ taken public transit in the cit

I think people largely ignore that the phrase originated in non-human-life-critical software? You can't just use it as a mantra for everything (but people are!). Imagine walking into your dentists office and seeing a "move fast an

I'm saying a lot of sites are punished, but Facebook is able to get through/away with it because of scale. It's very much a two-tier punishment system. Such a colossal platform is given leniency all around under the "w

I know it isn't Facebook's fault when things like this pop up (though they notoriously don't respond or react quickly/at all), but it's unfair that they ultimately don't face any consequences. If it were a smal

I'm seeing the information where probiotics can significantly delay antibiotic recovery to a normal gut state, but how long does the process take without additional probiotics? Also the probiotics are rabidly repopulating the gut... wo

This is a very bad analogy. Anyone in a car crash potentially benefits from airbags without knowing anything about them (or even if they exist at all). The 99.9% of people who don't even know the difference between www and non-www will

Sure, I can see how this is a myth about founders... but what about employees? We can't all run startups. There's a lot of age bias in hiring.
