Shingles vaccine is recommended for 50+ in US, 65+ in UK, and 70+ in Australia. Is the lower age in the US based on studies, an artifact of public health funding in UK and AUS, or is there little benefit before retirement age? Also curious

I think human trials of this or similar drug is required make it clear if the tau protein accumulation is a driver (as claimed by one of the researchers). The lead image is DAL-E generated - would have been fun if they had extended the prom

It isn't search engine exclusivity, so far as I see. I'm sure Reddit would welcome a big check from Microsoft or Apple, or even assurances the data will never be used for AI training. It also doesn't seem to be about search e

No, deleted is a word for deleted. But we started saying things were "deleted", while our eyes flicked to the stack of backup tapes in the corner, acknowledging the white lie, because really deleting things conflicted with other p

You give away control to a trust for tax benefits and legal protections. If Rupert can claw back control 'to protect the value of the trust’s holdings', I'd be surprised if other family members could not make the same argumen

One thing that I haven't seen discussed is retirement. When you have a high paying job, you can retire early and still maintain your desired standard of living (and most people do, because most people don't enjoy their job and tha

Is this a modern day nationalization? Essentially forced to sell at a 50% discount. In many ways very similar to what is happening to TikTok with the US. Although, now I think of it, it is just assumed that TikTok will end up under American

Its a stick they found in an area being actively examined, next to megafauna bones giving the age, that on inspection would have shown burn marks and probably not the megafauna lunch they thought it might be. Birthday paradox? I guess it mi

Because you can test the sparrows without having to raise an infant on the site. If you can demonstrate areas that are unsafe or illegal to raise children in, then perhaps people won't raise children there (or not, given we already kno

I wonder if this will scale up? Not having to unclog filters and less energy for pumping makes it sound like this could make much cheaper desalination plants. What is the catch? They must have been concentrating on a portable unit for a rea

Interestingly, in Europe (where this regulation is being implemented), there are roads that are engineered to allow high speed driving and in places allow unlimited speed. Over here, it is pretty much impossible and the 100-120km/h spe

It could be a little more subtle than that, and legal slight of hand. All the work is original and copyrightable, because someone wrote it. But does the NYT control that copyright? Or has the NYT violated someone else's copyright, in e

The coalition Nuclear plan comes with dropping 2035 targets and international climate agreements. This creates a lot of uncertainty. Polluting plants and factories remain viable until 2050 (unless a future government walks back), making a l

The only people who regret suicide are the ones who survive. Subjectively on success, you stop, and removing any and all future possibilities is the entire point. Suicide prevention has nothing to do with the subject, but everything to do w

All the information I find relates to fish ponds. I'm trying to work out if a bog filter is a good idea for a frog pond, or if the clearer water will make things worse for tadpoles.

As best we can tell through experimentation, trauma at least is passed on to subsequent generations. Comparing the science to discredited books that were based on the science and extrapolated without evidence is not a valid comparison. Like

I'd bet that today's data is worse. Data used to be expensive, because you needed to print it or store it on expensive media. Now, bullshit is cheaper than ever to reproduce. And more publishing than ever is about making money rat
