Right, I think that's what they meant. And the result would be that your blood glucose level would spike much higher than if you had a normal insulin response. It's unclear what the health effects of that would be.

I'm not sure we can equate low glycemic index foods with foods that suppress the insulin response. They might have a small insulin response in common, but their effect on blood sugar concentration is not at all the same.

What makes you think panspermia is more likely than abiogenesis? The only data point we have suggests the evolution of eukaryotic cells and multicellular life is simply less likely than abiogenesis. There are plenty of hypothesis to explain

Looks like the iBond rate applies through Oct, so not too late.

Totally agree. Unfortunately, it will never happen. Not without a violent revolution, anyways, and that would be worse. If we could just get approval voting implemented universally, maybe we wouldn't need an enforced upper limit.

Well that's not good... It's also insane that biology studies are rejected for having too much math.

Okay, but this would disincentivize individuals from building multiple successful companies after a certain point of personal success.

Should we cap the benefit at some particular monetary value? Wouldn't that disincentivize building companies past a certain point of success? Is that really what we want?

There are multiple companies closing in on highly economical fusion. Enough so that they're receiving hundreds of millions of dollars of investment from very savy private investors. My money is on Helion getting there first.

If fuel from air can be made efficient, then combined with highly economical fusion, I could see it being viable. I'm not sure it will ever be cost competitive with long tail oil and gas, though. And that's at least 30 years out.
