I must say I find it quite dishonest and hypocritical to use examples of theories which didn't impact humans' lives at all, or, if they did, only on the level of an individual -- to use these examples as a comparison with climate

I can't find any information on The Wellness Letters . Is it supposed to be an entire book? Where can I read the manuscripts found in the article?

Not OP, but I'd interpret it in a broader sense, that is, not focusing on specific and daily activities, but rather on general, social trends. Anthropologically, humans (but also animals) tend to mimic others so that they can integrate

Before arguing for or against this statement, perhaps we should precise what kind of research papers we're talking about. We're on HN, so I know most comments of this thread are dealing with scientific research papers; I'm a

Personally, I find the TFLi (Trésor de la Langue français informatisé)[1] to be much more complete, the biggest advantages being that it includes various locutions and specifies grammatical rules. [1] https://www.cnrtl.fr/de

Switzerland has 64% of its population vaccinated [1]. It's not that low compared to other Western countries. It's as much as the United States [2]. What makes you say that? [1] https://graphics.reuters.com/world-co

But it must be said that Obsidian works perfectly fine for simple note-taking. You won't fully leverage all the features, but who cares?

Great way of erasing all cultural differences and putting an end to diversity. Might as well merge all countries together into one and establish a single religion and a single political system while you're at it.

I've yet to try it, but this looks incredibly impressive compared to the other spaced repetition apps on the market, especially UI and features-wise. I also find it a great idea to merge notes and spaced repetition, a la RemNote. Out o

This is only my opinion, but really, we cannot afford to continue like this for months and months, or hell, even years. Once most of the population will be vaccinated, there will absolutely be no reason to keep facilities closed anymore. Th
